Online Presence Audit FAQ
Is this only about Google Business Profile?
GBP is a core part of your local presence, but we also assess brand infrastructure, listings, reviews,
your branded website UX and Core Web Vitals, content, and analytics.
How American Dreams Marketing helps: we centralize GBP posts, review requests, listings sync,
website chat and booking, and dashboards so you can manage everything in one place instead of ten tools.
How long does the audit take?
Most reports are delivered within 30 minutes once we have the basics. Multi-location brands may take longer
if access or data is incomplete.
How we help: you get a clear PDF and a prioritized checklist, plus optional implementation
sprints if you want our team to execute the fixes.
Will you implement the fixes for us?
Yes. You can choose full service or a focused sprint.
How we help: GBP optimization, listings cleanup and sync, review automation, content updates,
UX and speed improvements, and conversion tracking can all be handled by American Dreams Marketing.
What do you need from me?
Your business name, website, service area, and—if available—access to GBP and analytics.
No credit card is required for the audit.
How we help: our guided intake form collects everything we need, and our team can assist with
GBP verification or requesting access if you’re locked out.
How fast can we see results from GBP improvements?
Many brands see lift in views and actions within 2–6 weeks as new photos, posts, and category updates are
indexed. Listings cleanup and review momentum typically build over 60–90 days.
How we help: we schedule posts, automate review requests, and track actions so you can see
changes directly in your dashboard instead of guessing.
Do I need a physical address to rank on Google Maps?
No. Service-area businesses can hide their address and still rank. Proximity, relevance, and prominence drive results.
How we help: we configure service areas correctly, select accurate categories, and guide your
content so relevance and prominence improve over time.
Does this replace a full SEO program?
The audit is your foundation and gives you fast wins plus a roadmap. Many clients then layer on ongoing content,
link building, and conversion optimization.
How we help: American Dreams Marketing offers content calendars, page builds, funnels, and
analytics so you can keep iterating with data instead of hunches.
Can you handle multi-location branding?
Yes. We manage GBP and listings at scale.
How we help: location templates, bulk posts, per-location review management, and location
pages keep everything consistent while still allowing local personalization.
What KPIs will you track for us?
Map views, search impressions, calls, website taps, direction requests, bookings, lead source attribution,
conversion rate, and revenue or appointment value.
How we help: dashboards inside American Dreams Marketing combine GBP Insights, GA4, call
tracking, pipeline value, and simple ROI calculations so you know what’s working.
