If your Google visibility has stalled or you’re not getting calls from local searches—your SEO might be outdated.
Many Houston businesses are still relying on 2015 tactics in a 2025 market.

Here are clear signs it’s time for a local SEO overhaul—and what to do about it:
⚠️ 1. You’re Not in the Local Pack
If you Google your service + "Houston" and you’re not in the top 3 map results (Local Pack), something’s off.
✅ You may need to optimize your Google Business Profile or get more reviews.
📉 2. Your Website Traffic Is Flat or Dropping
Check Google Analytics:
No growth in organic traffic?
Bounce rates climbing?
Mobile users not converting?
✅ You may need a content, speed, or mobile-friendliness update.
⏳ 3. You Haven’t Posted Anything in Months
Google prefers fresh content.If your last blog was 6 months ago and your GMB post is from 2023… you’re getting buried.
✅ Consistency is key in staying visible.
📍 4. Your Listings Are Inconsistent
NAP (Name, Address, Phone) should match across all platforms.
✅ Inconsistent Yelp, Bing, or Facebook listings confuse Google—and hurt your local authority.
🧩 5. You're Not Getting Calls or Leads
If you’re visible but not converting, your:
CTAs may be weak
Landing pages poorly designed
Keywords not matching user intent
✅ An SEO audit can show where your funnel breaks down.
