Who am I

My Name is Caleb Johnstone and I am your Local SEO Expert

As a Local SEO Specialist, I have over 5+ years of experience helping local businesses like lawyers, physios, plumbers and dentists rank higher in Google.

I understand what it takes to get real results. I’m not an agency, I’m a dedicated local SEO specialist who works directly with every client.

Unlike big agencies that juggle hundreds of clients with a small team, I’ve intentionally capped my client base at 20. This means when you work with me, your campaign won’t get lost in the shuffle. Every single client gets personalised attention and consistent monthly work.

I don’t outsource anything either. Every audit, content brief, keyword strategy, and backlink analysis is done by me. You’ll also have full access to your live SEO dashboard, where you can track keyword rankings and SEO performance in real time.

Choosing the right local SEO consulting partner can make or break your SEO performance. I offer a custom-built and results-driven approach that big agencies simply can’t match with their cookie-cutter strategies.

With me, you’re not just another client in a queue that may not get touched in months; you’re a partner.

I bring over 5 years of hands-on SEO experience with deep local market knowledge and a commitment to doing the work myself, not outsourcing it.

Industries I Serve

Local Businesses I Work With

Local SEO isn’t one-size-fits-all and every industry has different needs, search behaviours and competitive landscapes. That’s why I tailor each strategy to the specific challenges and goals of the businesses I work with.

Whether you’re a tradie looking to own local search in your area, a lawyer looking to get more qualified leads, or a health clinic looking to fill your calendar with bookings, I’ve got the experience and tools to get you found by the right people right when they’re searching.

Below are some of the local industries I work with. If you don’t see your business type listed, get in touch anyway. If I think I can help, I will. If I’m not the right fit, I’ll let you know.

Local SEO is crucial for law firms looking to attract clients searching for legal help in their area. I help lawyers rank for high-converting keywords like “family lawyer [city]”, “criminal defence lawyer near me”, or “conveyancing lawyer [city]”.

From optimising your service pages to managing your Google Business Profile, I ensure your law firm shows up when it matters most.

 
 

I help physios, chiropractors, dentists, and other allied health professionals attract more local patients through targeted local SEO strategies. By focusing on keywords like “physiotherapist in [suburb]” or “dentist near me”, and improving your clinic’s online visibility, I help fill your appointment calendar with real, local leads.

 

Whether you’re a plumber, electrician, builder, or HVAC technician, I help you get found by people searching for your services in their time of need.

I’ll optimise your website and local listings for search terms like “emergency plumber [location]” or “licensed electrician near me”, so you’re the first business they see and call.

 

Parents rely on Google to find trusted childcare centres, tutors, and early learning programs nearby.

I help you rank higher for searches like “childcare centre in [suburb]” or “math tutor near me”, ensuring your business stands out in maps and search results when families are making important decisions.

 

For cafes, restaurants, local tour operators, and boutique stays, local visibility directly impacts foot traffic and bookings.

I’ll optimise your site and Google Business Profile for keywords like “best cafe in [suburb]” or “Gold Coast day tours”, so travellers and locals alike can easily find and choose your business.

 

As a Local SEO Specialist, I help real estate agencies rank higher in Google for local searches like “real estate agent near me” or “property manager [suburb]”.

From optimising your Google Business Profile to creating hyper-local content and building citations, I ensure your agency stands out in local search results so more buyers, sellers, and landlords can find and contact you first.

 

I work with gyms, fitness centres, and boutique studios to improve their visibility in local search results for terms like “gym in [suburb]” or “Reformer Pilates near me”. Whether you offer group classes, personal training, or specialised services,

I’ll help you rank higher in maps and organic search so you get more bookings, trials or memberships from people in your area.

 

I help accountants and financial advisors attract more local clients through targeted SEO strategies designed to rank for keywords like “tax accountant [suburb]”, “financial advisor near me”, and “business accountant [city]”.

Whether you specialise in individual tax returns, business accounting, or long-term financial planning, I’ll improve your local visibility so you’re found first by people actively searching for your professional services.
