Will people find you when they search in St. George or Cedar City?
If someone in Southern Utah searches for what you do and finds your competitor instead, that’s not bad luck. It’s a local SEO problem, and it’s fixable.
I’m David. I run local SEO for service businesses, dealerships, practices, and shops in Cedar City, St. George, Hurricane, and the surrounding area. One developer, month-to-month, in-person meetings if you want them.
What you get each month
No vague promises. Here’s the visible output you’ll see every month, with a report that shows exactly what it produced.
On-page SEO and technical fixes
Page titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, speed, and the technical foundation Google reads. Prioritized by what moves the needle most.
Google Business Profile management
Weekly posts, photo updates, review responses, Q&A, and category tuning. This is where local map-pack rankings are won.
Content that ranks
Blog posts and service pages built around the searches your customers actually type. Every piece has a ranking target.
Local citation building
Consistent business listings across directories so Google trusts your name, address, and phone number.
Monthly report and strategy session
Clear numbers: where you rank, what changed, what we worked on, and what we’re doing next. No jargon.
In-person meeting (Southern Utah clients)
Sit down, review the numbers, talk about what’s working. Available monthly for Cedar City, St. George, and surrounding area clients.
Every engagement is month-to-month. No long-term contracts. You stay because of results, not paperwork. If it stops being worth it, you cancel.

I’m based in Cedar City. I know these markets, and I meet clients in person when it makes sense. Here’s what local SEO looks like in each area:
St. George →
The fastest-growing city in Utah and the most competitive local market in the region. If you’re a service business in St. George and you’re not on page one, someone who opened last year probably is.
Cedar City →
Home base. I know the SUU cycle, the Shakespeare Festival traffic, and the Iron County market. Most of my clients are here, and the ones who started early own their search results.
Hurricane →
Zion’s gateway and one of the fastest-growing towns in Washington County. Tourism businesses that rank for “near Zion” searches capture visitors before they arrive.
Washington →
Explosive residential growth means new residents searching for every local service. The businesses that show up first get the call.
Santa Clara & Ivins →
Affluent communities where customers research before they buy. A strong local presence means they find you instead of driving to St. George.
Not sure where you stand?

Our SEO services typically range from $500-$2,500 per month depending on scope, competition, and goals. We also offer one-time SEO audit and optimization packages for businesses that want to establish a strong foundation before committing to ongoing services. We'll recommend an appropriate investment level based on your specific situation and competitive landscape.
SEO is a long-term investment, not an instant fix. Most businesses start seeing measurable improvements within 3-6 months, with more significant results in 6-12 months. The timeline depends on factors including your starting point, competition level, and how aggressively we can implement changes. We set realistic expectations upfront and provide regular progress updates.
No legitimate SEO company can guarantee specific rankings—Google's algorithm considers hundreds of factors, many outside any single company's control. Be wary of anyone who promises guaranteed rankings. What we can guarantee is our commitment to implementing proven best practices, our transparency in reporting, and our focus on driving real business results rather than just vanity metrics.
SEO focuses on earning organic (unpaid) visibility in search results, while paid advertising (like Google Ads) involves paying for placement. Both have their place in a comprehensive marketing strategy. SEO takes longer to show results but provides lasting value. Paid ads deliver immediate visibility but stop working when you stop paying. Many of our clients use both.
Both approaches have merit depending on your situation. A one-time optimization can address technical issues and establish a strong foundation. However, SEO is inherently competitive—if you stop working while competitors continue, you'll eventually fall behind. Ongoing SEO services maintain and build upon your gains, adapt to algorithm changes, and continuously improve your visibility.
