Frequently asked
Questions?
How long does it take to rank in the Google Map Pack?
For businesses in less competitive categories in Nairobi, meaningful Map Pack visibility is achievable within 30 to 90 days of consistent local SEO work. Highly competitive categories like legal services may take 3 to 6 months.
Do I need a physical address to rank locally?
Yes, Google requires a verified address for Map Pack eligibility. Service-area businesses that do not want to display their address can set a service radius instead while still appearing in local results.
What is the difference between local SEO and regular SEO?
Regular SEO targets national or global searches. Local SEO targets location-based searches and the Google Map Pack. Most Kenyan businesses need both local SEO for nearby buyers and standard SEO for broader search visibility.
