Local SEO is the work of helping a business appear in search results for people looking for its services in a specific area, including Google's map results, through its Business Profile, reviews, website, and business listings.

A business can't delete a Google review, but it can report a review that breaks Google's content policies, and Google removes the review if it finds a violation.

A shared lead is a customer inquiry that a lead provider sells to several moving companies, while an exclusive lead goes to one company only, so the main differences are competition for the customer, price, and how fast a mover must respond.

Local Services Ads are Google ads for local service businesses that appear prominently in Google Search, let customers call, message, or book directly, and charge for valid leads instead of clicks.

A 301 redirect is a permanent server response that sends visitors and search engines from an old URL to a new one, and Google treats it as a signal that the new URL should be the one shown in search results.

A service area business visits or delivers to customers at their location and does not serve customers at its own address, so its Google Business Profile shows a service area instead of a street address.

Answer engine optimization (AEO) is the practice of making a business's content easy for AI search tools such as Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity to find, understand, and cite in their answers.

Call tracking is a way to find out which ads, listings, or pages produced a phone call, usually by giving each source its own forwarding number and recording details such as the time, length, and source of each call.

Conversion rate optimization (CRO) is the practice of increasing the share of website visitors who take a valuable action, such as requesting a moving quote or calling, by measuring that action and testing changes to the pages that lead to it.

The Google map pack is the group of local business listings and a map that Google shows near the top of the results for searches with local intent, such as "movers near me."

Google has replaced the Google Guaranteed and Google Screened badges on Local Services Ads with a single Google Verified badge, and it has discontinued the Money Back Guarantee that came with Google Guaranteed.

ChatGPT recommends and cites businesses using pages it finds through its search features, so a business has to let OpenAI's search crawler reach its site and publish clear, accurate information that answers the questions customers ask.

Google ranks businesses in Maps and local results mainly by relevance, distance, and prominence, using the Google Business Profile, information from the web, links, and reviews, and it doesn't allow anyone to pay for a higher local ranking.

Google Business Profile verification is the process Google uses to confirm that you own or represent a business before you can edit its profile, using a method such as video, phone, text, email, or a mailed code.

A moving quote form collects the details a mover needs to price a job, such as move date, origin, destination, and home size, and sends them to the company, so its design affects both how many people finish it and how quickly the mover can respond.

Pay per lead charges a business for each qualifying inquiry, such as a form, message, or call, while pay per call charges only for phone calls that meet the seller's rules, usually a minimum length, so the right model depends on how a business books its jobs.

A canonical tag is a link element, rel="canonical", that tells search engines which URL is the preferred version of a page when the same content is available at more than one address.

Offline conversion tracking reports sales that happen away from the website, such as a booked move confirmed by phone, back to an ad platform like Google Ads, so the platform can connect those sales to the ad clicks that started them.

Review gating is screening customers before asking for a review, so that only the ones likely to leave a positive review are sent to a public site like Google, while unhappy customers are steered away.

A business gets more Google reviews by asking every customer, sending a direct review link or QR code, and replying to the reviews it receives, without incentives or selective asking.

A local citation is an online mention of a business's name, address, and phone number, such as a listing on a directory, map, or data provider, and consistent citations help search engines confirm the business's details.

UTM parameters are tags added to the end of a link, such as utm_source and utm_medium, that tell analytics tools like Google Analytics where a visitor came from when they click that link.

Clickthrough rate (CTR) is the share of people who click an ad or search result after seeing it, calculated as clicks divided by impressions.

llms.txt is a proposed Markdown file, placed at a website's root or a subpath, that gives AI agents a short overview of the site and links to clean, LLM-friendly versions of its most useful pages.

Performance Max is a goal-based Google Ads campaign type that uses one campaign to reach all Google Ads inventory, including Search, Maps, YouTube, Display, Discover, and Gmail, and uses Google AI to optimize toward the conversions you choose.

Schema markup, also called structured data, is code added to a web page that describes its content in a standard vocabulary from schema.org, such as a business's name, address, and type, so search engines can understand the page and show it in richer results.

Speed to lead is the time between a potential customer's inquiry and the business's first attempt to contact them, and research on online leads found that responding within an hour sharply raised the chance of reaching a decision maker.

Google suspends or disables Business Profiles that don't follow its guidelines, and the owner can ask for reinstatement by fixing the problem and submitting an appeal with supporting evidence.

NAP consistency means a business's name, address, and phone number match everywhere they appear online, so customers and search engines get the same details from every source.

Google Business Profile categories tell Google and customers what kind of business a profile represents, and Google says the primary category and up to 9 additional categories affect local ranking.

A website redesign keeps its search rankings when every old URL that changes is permanently redirected to its matching new page, the content and structured data that earned rankings are carried over, and the move is tested and monitored in Search Console.

To respond to a negative review, check whether it breaks Google's policies, then reply promptly and politely, address the specific complaint, apologize where appropriate, and move the details to a private conversation.

A service area page gives visitors useful, specific information about how a business serves one place, while a doorway page is one of many near-identical pages made to rank for similar searches, which Google treats as spam.

A GCLID (Google Click Identifier) is a parameter Google Ads adds to the landing page URL of each ad click when auto-tagging is on, used to track conversions and match offline sales back to the click.

Generative engine optimization (GEO) is a term from a 2023 research paper for making content more visible in AI-generated answers, and Google says that for its own AI features the work is still SEO.

Google Ads Quality Score is a 1–10 keyword-level diagnostic that compares an ad's expected clickthrough rate, ad relevance, and landing page experience with other advertisers, and Google says it isn't an input in the ad auction.

Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode build answers from pages in Google's search index, using its core ranking systems and related 'fan-out' searches, so a page must be indexed and eligible for a snippet to be cited.

Google Business Profile posts are updates, offers, and events a business publishes on its profile, which appear on Google Search and Maps and are archived after 6 months unless they have a date range.

Negative keywords stop Google Ads from showing ads for searches that contain chosen words or phrases, so a moving company doesn't pay for clicks from people looking for jobs, truck rentals, or services it doesn't offer.

Google Search Console is a free Google tool that shows how a website appears in Google Search, including the searches that show it, clicks, indexing problems, and links from other sites.

Review velocity is the rate at which a business receives new reviews over time; local SEO practitioners widely rank a steady flow of reviews among the strongest local ranking factors, though Google doesn't publish it as one.

A business can have one Google Business Profile for each real location, and Google allows a service-area business one profile per location only when each has its own service area and staff.

A local SEO checklist for a moving company covers the Google Business Profile, reviews, the website, business listings, and tracking, with each step based on what Google says affects local results.

AI crawlers are bots that AI companies use to collect web pages for model training, to build AI search results, or to fetch a page when a user asks, and site owners control most of them separately through robots.txt.

Geofencing advertising shows ads to people whose devices are, or recently were, inside a virtual boundary around a place, and it depends on location data whose collection the FTC requires to be based on informed consent.

Noindex is a rule, set in a robots meta tag or an HTTP header, that tells Google to drop a page from its search results even if other sites link to it.

Cost per click is what an advertiser pays on average for each ad click, while cost per lead is total ad spend divided by the leads it produced, so cost per lead shows what each potential customer actually cost.

Robots.txt is a text file at the root of a website that tells crawlers which URLs they may visit, and Google says it manages crawling but doesn't keep a page out of search results.

An XML sitemap is a file that lists a website's important pages so search engines can find and crawl them more efficiently, though Google says listing a page doesn't guarantee it will be indexed.
