How long until I see results?

First moves in 30 days, real ranking changes 90 to 180 days. Anyone promising faster either lies or risks a Google penalty for you.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No. Anyone who guarantees Google rankings is either lying or scamming you. I guarantee the work.

Can you write the content?

Yes. SEO copy is part of the retainer.

What about Google Ads?

Different service. SEO is organic, Ads is paid. I can advise on Ads but I do not actively run them as a service.

Do you do nationwide SEO?

I focus on local. National SEO is a different game and there are firms better at it.

What is your reporting cadence?

Monthly written report, with rankings, traffic, leads attributed, and what changed.

SEO and local search optimization in Little Rock, AR. Marcus Dycus.

SEO in Little Rock

Little Rock is the biggest market in Arkansas and the most competitive. Local SEO here is harder than anywhere else in the state, which means the technical foundation matters more. A pretty site that loads slow and has no schema will not rank against agencies with twenty engineers.

Local SEO is the difference between being on page one for "[your service] near me" and not existing on Google at all. For a small business, page one is usually the entire business. There is no second-page traffic to speak of.

I do SEO the way it actually works in 2026: clean technical foundation, real content for real queries, schema markup so Google understands you are a local business and not a national one, and continuous measurement against the searches your customers are actually typing. There are no SEO tricks. Anyone selling tricks is selling you penalty risk.

Most local SEO problems I run into are slow-loading sites, missing or broken schema, generic copy that does not target city-level keywords, no Google Business Profile or one that has gone stale, and no internal linking structure between service pages. I fix these in order of impact.
