Burien SEO
SEO in Burien, Washington, serving South King County from our Mill Creek office.
Burien's customers do not stop at the city line. A diner in Olde Burien draws from West Seattle and Normandy Park, a shop on First Avenue South pulls from White Center, and the hotels and parking lots on the east side live on Sea-Tac traffic. Every one of those customers found the business on a phone. Our office is in Mill Creek, about an hour up I-5.

What you get
What an SEO retainer actually buys you
Many owners who call us have paid for SEO before and cannot say what they got for it. So here is the list. Every month we work on the six things below, and the report tells you which ones we touched and what moved.
Your Google Business Profile, run properly
The listing that decides the map pack. We set the categories, services, hours, and photos right and keep them current, so Google shows you when someone nearby searches.
Reviews that keep coming
A simple request goes to every finished customer, and we write the replies. A steady stream of recent reviews is what separates the three businesses on the map from everyone else.
A page for every service you sell
If you do roof repair and gutters, you need a page for each, written for the person searching for it. We write them, with your photos and your prices where you allow.
Fixes to the site itself
Slow pages, broken links, forms that fail on a phone, pages Google cannot find. We fix those on the site you have. You do not need a new one to start.
A report you can read in five minutes
Once a month: where you rank, how many people called or filled out a form, what we did, what is next. No charts you need us to explain.
Month to month
No annual contract. The site, the content, and the Business Profile stay yours if you leave. We keep clients by earning the next month.
Proof, not promises
Searches our clients already win
These are screenshots of Google, not mockups. The first one is a Snohomish County client competing for the same South King County customers you are. The others show the same work holding up in markets far bigger than Burien. Ask us on the first call and we will pull up the live results for your own trade.

What you are up against in Burien
Who gets the call, and why
Search for your trade with "burien" after it and count the businesses that appear before you have to scroll: three on the map, then a few links. Those spots go to whoever has the most recent reviews, the most complete Google Business Profile, and a page that answers the search. In most trades around South King County, one or two businesses are doing that deliberately and the rest are coasting.
We start by showing you exactly who holds those spots for your searches and what they did to get there. Then we close the gap: the site, the profile, the reviews, the pages, in that order. Expect your Business Profile to show for more searches within the first two months and meaningful ranking gains in three to six. Anyone who promises sooner is guessing or gaming, and gamed rankings do not last.

The Burien market
Built for how Burien actually does business
Burien is a city of around 52,000 on the bluff between Sea-Tac Airport and Puget Sound, and its business scene is one of the most varied in South King County. Olde Burien, the walkable original core around SW 152nd Street, holds restaurants, bars, boutiques, and services with genuine neighborhood character, while Town Square and First Avenue South carry the bigger retail. The city's proximity to the airport feeds hotels, parking, transport, and logistics businesses on its east side.
Burien is also one of the region's most diverse small-business markets: a large share of its shops, restaurants, and services are immigrant- and family-owned, serving communities that stretch from White Center through Normandy Park. St. Anne Hospital anchors healthcare employment. Customers here cross between Burien, West Seattle, and SeaTac without thinking about city lines, which makes local search visibility, showing up when someone nearby needs exactly what you do, the deciding factor for most of the city's businesses.
SEO in Burien
What SEO looks like for a Burien business
SEO for a Burien business is about catching people who cross city lines without noticing. A family in White Center, a traveler at Sea-Tac, and a couple from West Seattle looking for dinner all search from a phone, and the map pack returns the businesses closest to where they stand with the most recent reviews and the most complete Google Business Profile. A restaurant in Olde Burien is found by the kind of food someone types, while a shop on First Avenue South is found by its trade plus the word Burien, and the hotels on the east side by a traveler's search from the terminal. The chains around the airport hold their brand searches and little else. A family-owned shop with a complete profile, a page for each service, and a review request after every visit takes the rest.

Our plan in Burien
The first three months, in order
Restaurants on SW 152nd and in Olde Burien
Burien's food scene pulls diners from West Seattle, Normandy Park, and Des Moines who search for the kind of food, not the name of the restaurant: a cuisine, a dish, brunch near 152nd. We write the Business Profile and the site around the words people type, keep hours and menu current, and reply to every review under your name, so a search from a car on Ambaum returns you.
Airport-side hotels, parking, and shuttles
Hotels, park-and-fly lots, and shuttle operators in Boulevard Park and along Ambaum compete with the big SeaTac names for travelers searching from the terminal or from home the night before a flight. The Google Business Profile in the right categories, with current photos and recent reviews, is what those travelers compare. We keep it complete and send a review request after every stay or booking.
Clinics and trades along First Avenue South
A dental office near St. Anne Hospital or an auto shop on First Avenue South serves households from White Center down to Normandy Park, many of them family businesses themselves. We write a page for each service in plain language, in the languages your front desk speaks if you want them, keep the profile accurate with hours and services, and request a review from every finished job so the profile shows recent work.
Burien questions
Questions from Burien owners
The questions owners in Burien ask on the first call, answered the way we answer them on the phone.
Ask the teamWe keep your Google Business Profile complete and accurate, send review requests to finished customers and write the replies under your name, add or rewrite at least one service page, and fix the site as we find problems. At the end of the month you get a report showing where you rank for your Burien searches, how many calls and form fills came in, what we did, and what comes next. If a competitor on 152nd or First Avenue South passed you, the report says who and why.
On the map, White Center yes: it sits right on the north edge along First Avenue South, and a Burien address shows for most of it. West Seattle is farther and crowded with its own businesses, so the map is out of reach from most Burien addresses, but a page describing the work you do there ranks in the regular results. Normandy Park and SeaTac are reachable from the south and east sides of town. We look up where you actually appear from each place before we quote anything.
Both. Travelers search for a hotel, parking, or a ride from the terminal, and a business in Boulevard Park or on the east side of Burien is close enough to show on that map. The problem is the SeaTac chains on the same map with hundreds of reviews and corporate profiles. We do not chase their brand names. We take the searches they handle badly: the specific service, the specific need, the review reply written by a person who was there. For a business with nothing to do with the airport, that traffic is noise, and we leave it alone.
The Google Business Profile shows for more searches within one to two months, because a complete profile with a few fresh reviews moves fast on a map as dense as Burien's. Rankings in the regular results and more calls take three to six months, because the new pages need to be indexed and the reviews need to pile up. You get the report every month in between so you can see which way it is going. We never guarantee a ranking, and we tell you on the first call which searches look winnable from your address and which do not.
Because the work is the same four things every month in any city, and the local research is done before the first invoice: who holds the map spots for your searches on 152nd or First Avenue South, how many reviews they have, what their pages say. We drive down I-5 for the first meeting and the photos, about an hour. After that you see the work on the monthly report, you can call between reports, and you can leave at the end of any month. Everything we build is yours.
Your Google Business Profile starts showing for more searches within the first one to two months. Real movement in rankings and calls takes three to six months for most trades, longer if you are up against a Burien competitor who has been at this for years. You see the progress in the report every month, so you are never waiting on faith.
No. Google does not sell rankings and nobody can promise them. What we commit to is the work: the profile, the reviews, the pages, the fixes, and a report every month that shows what moved. If nothing moves, you can leave, because there is no contract holding you.
Work on your Google Business Profile, review requests and replies, at least one new or rewritten page, fixes to the site as we find them, and a plain-English report: rankings, calls and form fills, what we did, what is next. You can call Tony, who does the work, any time in between.
No. SEO is month to month. We ask you to give it three months, because that is how long the work takes to show, but nothing binds you. Everything we build stays yours: the site, the content, the Business Profile.
Yes, and that is the usual case. We work on whatever the site is built on. If it is truly holding you back we will say so and show you what a rebuild costs, but most sites can be fixed rather than replaced, and the SEO work starts either way.
