What We Do
Two Services. Done Better Than Most.
We don't offer ten services and master none. We focus on Local SEO and
Link Building — the two channels that move rankings — and we do them properly.
01
Local SEO Services
Get found by customers searching near you — on Google and AI tools.
Most customers search before they call. We make sure your business shows up when that search happens — in the map pack, on your Google Business Profile, and inside AI answers.
Every campaign includes AI search visibility. No extra charge. No separate project.
GMB Creation & Optimization
Build and optimize your Google Business Profile from scratch.
Map Pack Ranking
Push your business into the top 3 results on Google Maps.
NAP Consistency
Fix mismatched listings that silently drain your local rankings.
GBP Posts & Updates
Weekly posts that signal activity and relevance to Google.
Review Response Management
Professional replies to every review, positive or negative.
Local Keyword Research
Find the exact search terms your nearby customers use.
Location-Based Landing Pages
Unique pages for every area you serve, built to rank.
Hyper-Local Content Writing
Content that references your real neighborhood and area.
Local Schema Markup
Structured data that tells Google exactly what you offer.
Competitor Local SEO Analysis
Expose what your top competitors are doing better than you.

02
Link Building Services
Build the authority that makes every other SEO effort work harder.
When someone searches "plumber near me," Google often shows an AI answer above the map pack. When they ask ChatGPT the same question, it recommends a business directly.
Your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and your local content all feed both systems. A local SEO campaign that ignores this misses half the opportunity.
That's why every Local SEO package at Ranketra is structured for AI visibility from day one. You don't pay extra for it, and you don't need a separate campaign.

ChatGPT referral traffic tripled in 4 months — from 10,000 to 30,000 domains cited
89%
of ChatGPT's source domains come from Google — so traditional SEO still feeds AI visibility
Now
Local businesses that show up in AI answers get more calls. Most agencies still don't structure local content for this.
Why Ranketra
Local SEO and Links. Nothing Diluted.
We don't spread thin across ten services. We focus on local rankings and backlinks — the two things that move the needle most for growing businesses.
01
AI Visibility, Built In
Every local campaign is structured to rank on Google Maps and get picked up by AI tools like ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews. It's part of the work, not an upsell.
02
Nine Specialists. No Middlemen.
Every client works directly with the person doing the actual work. One specialist owns your strategy. One owns your technical SEO. One owns your content. No account managers. No outsourcing. Full accountability.
03
Local Roots. Global Reach.
We are based in Dubai and work with clients across the UAE, UK, US, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Local SEO campaigns for specific districts, international link building, and worldwide AI search visibility — all from one team.
04

Client Results
Businesses That Rank with Ranketra.
Real clients. Real results. From local map pack rankings to AI citations.
★★★★★
We had been in Dubai Marina for two years and good customers just couldn't find us online. Ranketra fixed that within two months. We're now in the top three on Maps and bookings have grown by 35 to 45 percent.
★★★★★
Our practice had been here for years but we were invisible online. Ranketra built our local presence properly and appointment inquiries have increased well over 55 percent. The results have been genuinely impressive.
★★★★★
We were losing buyers to national platforms and local agencies who just had more location pages. Ranketra built those pages properly and we now rank across every neighborhood we serve. Inquiries have more than doubled.
★★★★★
I took over the business and had almost no online presence to start with. Ranketra built everything from scratch and within three months we were in the top three on Google Maps and fully booked weeks in advance.
★★★★★
We had good content but nothing was ranking because nobody was linking to us. Ranketra built the right links from the right places and our domain authority and traffic both moved fast. Results were better than we expected.
★★★★★
We were spending too much on ads and getting almost no organic sales. Ranketra built real backlinks to our category pages and organic revenue grew by over 180 percent in four months. The return on investment has been enormous.
★★★★★
We had great content but no authority behind it. Ranketra built the right links, including a Wikipedia citation we never thought was possible for us, and two of our most important keywords are now on page 1.
★★★★★
We wanted to rank on Google but more importantly we wanted AI tools to recommend us. Ranketra understood exactly what that required. ChatGPT now mentions us when people ask about data integration tools.
★★★★★
We wanted international clients and our domain had no authority in English markets. Ranketra built links in both Portuguese and English and we're now getting inbound inquiries from the UK, US, and Europe. Leads have tripled.

A Local SEO agency helps your business rank higher in Google Maps and local search results. This includes optimizing your Google Business Profile, building local citations, creating location-specific pages, and managing reviews. Ranketra also builds AI search visibility into every local campaign at no extra cost.
Yes. Every Local SEO campaign at Ranketra includes optimization for Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. When we build your Google Business Profile and local content, we structure it so AI tools can find and recommend your business too. This is included as part of the service, not sold separately.
We build backlinks through guest posts, niche edits, press releases, Wikipedia citations, local citations, PBN links, Web 2.0 links, foundational links, and forum backlinks. Every link is matched to your niche and built to follow Google's quality guidelines, so it holds up over time.
Most local businesses see Google Maps and map pack improvements in 4 to 8 weeks. Organic keyword rankings typically improve in 3 to 6 months. AI search visibility, like appearing in ChatGPT or AI Overviews, can show results in 2 to 4 months with the right content structure. Timelines depend on your current standing, competition, and location.
Three things. First, we only do Local SEO and Link Building, so we don't spread our focus thin across services we're not great at. Second, you work directly with the specialist doing your work, not an account manager. Third, we send a full audit before you pay anything, so you see exactly what needs fixing first.
Yes. Every new client gets a free audit before anything else. We cover technical SEO health, keyword gaps, backlink profile, Google Business Profile signals, and AI search visibility. The report arrives in 48 hours. There is no cost and no sales follow-up. You get real findings that are useful whether or not you work with us.
We work with local businesses, e-commerce stores, SaaS companies, service businesses, and professional services. Clients are based in the UAE, UK, US, Australia, Europe, and other markets. Some want local map pack rankings. Others want international link building or AI search visibility. We handle both, and we adjust the strategy to fit what your business actually needs.
Yes. We work with businesses worldwide. Our team is based in Dubai but our clients are in the UK, US, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and other markets. Local SEO and Link Building services are delivered remotely, with AI search visibility included. Time zones have never been a problem for our clients.
