How Dr IT SEO Services works with local businesses
Vlad Tabaranu, the founder, runs every campaign directly. Your work is not handed to a junior team member. Our approach combines local SEO and technical web work. Vlad Tabaranu holds the Conversion Optimization Certification, Google Analytics Certification and Google Ads Search Certification, issued by Google (Skillshop) in July 2026. Every report is written in plain English and focused on enquiries.
Why your Google profile may not appear in local search
Your Google Business Profile is the listing that shows in the Google map pack and local results. Visibility depends on how complete and accurate that profile is, and on how consistent your business details are across the web. Our audit checks these local ranking factors so you can see what is holding your profile back.
Google Business Profile optimisation
We review your profile’s categories, service areas, reviews, and completeness, then correct what is missing or inaccurate.
Citations and local directory listings
A citation is a mention of your business name, address, and phone number (NAP) on another website, such as a directory. We check that your NAP details match across listings, because inconsistent details can weaken local search visibility.
Whether your website is blocking enquiries
A website that loads slowly, displays poorly on mobile, or hides your contact details can stop visitors from getting in touch. We check your enquiry form, mobile layout, page speed, calls to action, and contact details to find where customers drop off.
How local SEO and web design fit together
Local SEO helps people find your business, and your website is where they decide whether to contact you. We build SEO-built WordPress websites with a clear site structure, so your pages support your local search visibility and make it easy to enquire.

What Clients Say About Dr IT SEO
“The implementation showed a clear understanding of site structure, local intent, Google Business Profile alignment and measurement through Search Console. What I liked was the emphasis on demonstrable changes and measurable outcomes rather than treating rankings as the only KPI a the methodology is grounded in actual search data.”
“I liked how Dr IT SEO approaches local search for service businesses, particularly the relationship between the website, Google Business Profile and location relevance. The work showed a sensible understanding of local-search fundamentals and the importance of keeping business information, services and landing pages aligned. I also appreciated the focus on measuring visibility and enquiries instead of relying on generic SEO reports.”
“We’d previously used SEO agencies, so I was looking for somebody who could show me exactly what was being changed and why. Vlad reviewed our website, Search Console and Google Business Profile and identified several issues affecting our local visibility. Over 6 months, we saw 150% actual increase in calls and leads. The main difference for me is that I deal directly with the person doing the work and can see the evidence behind the recommendations.”
“Our business relies on enquiries from people searching locally for a specialist service, so ranking for the right searches matters more than generating general traffic. Dr IT SEO reorganised our service pages, improved the local targeting and worked on our Google presence. Since then, we’ve seen 4 times as many leads. Vlad also explains the work clearly enough that we understand where our marketing budget is going.”

Frequently asked questions
What does Dr IT SEO Services do?
It provides nine services: local SEO, AI SEO, web design, content marketing, conversion rate optimisation, ecommerce SEO, social media marketing, website maintenance, and white-label SEO.
How much does it cost?
Monthly plans cost £499 (Starter), £699 (Advanced), or £999 (Pro), each with a setup fee.
How long does it take to see results?
Rankings are not guaranteed: Google decides what ranks. I record a baseline, report monthly, and publish dated evidence on the results page.
Where are you based?
415 Court Oak Road, Harborne, Birmingham, B32 2DX. I support the West Midlands and work remotely across the United Kingdom, in English and Romanian.
Who does the work?
I do. I am Vlad Tabaranu, founder since 2010, so the person who audits your site delivers the work.
Do you guarantee a #1 position?
No. Google decides what ranks, and Google’s own guidance says no one can guarantee a #1 ranking. I record a baseline and report enquiries first.
Which results do you report?
Calls, messages, direction requests and form submissions come first. Map-pack positions, impressions and visits follow as context.
Do you run ads?
Yes. I manage paid ads on the major ad platforms, PPC as separate projects, priced per project and not included in the monthly plans. The ad account stays in your name. I report spend, cost per enquiry and conversions together, and I do not promise a return on ad spend.
