Best Local SEO Agency
We Take Market Share from Your Competitors and Give It to You
The Local SEO Agency Hostile Takeover = better work, done faster, at scale, to take market share NOW — not in 6 months.
The agency that's been selling you is likely bullshitting you.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
After years bouncing between in-house "Director" roles where my hands were tied, to agency "Director" roles dealing with the same nonsense — I started calling the agency experience what it was: the charade.
The promises. The "we're committed to." The leadership closing deals on fantasy timelines and inflated claims, then handing me the mess to clean up while I forced a smile through report theater and took the heat for promises I never made.
If you've been through 3, 4, 5 "SEO guys" before landing here, you already know the script.
The big pitch. The Zoom call with the Founders, the CEO, the SEO Director, the PPC Director, two or three junior SEOs, the Account Manager, the interns, and the dog — can't forget the dog. Then comes the line: "When you sign with us, you have our whole team at your disposal."
Then you sign.
Leadership does a happy dance over a year of locked-in revenue, ships your project to Bangalore, and starts working the next prospect in the pipeline.
After being sold high-touch and high-quality, your account gets run by a $3/hour entry-level "SEO expert" who couldn't rank a site if their life depended on it — with a junior SEO polishing the turds and shipping to your website.
Then they bill you top dollar.
Then they tell you to be patient. "SEO takes six months."
Enough.

Something Else?
Start with Local Intelligence. The data will tell us.
Local SEO & Google Business Profile
The core practice. We engineer your presence in the local map pack — Google Business Profile optimization, citation building, review strategy, and the proximity and prominence signals that decide the top three results of every local search.
Organic SEO
Durable rankings on Google's organic results. Technical SEO, entity-based content, local landing pages, and the authority signals — links, mentions, citations — that move you up the page and hold the position once you're there.
Multi-Location SEO
Our deepest specialty — the discipline this agency was built on. Ranking one brand across dozens of markets at once: per-location landing pages, individual GBP and citation strategy for every branch, and a site architecture that scales local authority instead of letting locations cannibalize each other.
AI Search Optimization
GEO and AEO — visibility inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews. As buyers shift from searching to asking, we make sure the recommendation they're handed is yours.
Google Ads & Paid Media
Immediate visibility while the organic asset compounds. Google Ads, Local Services Ads, and Facebook & Instagram campaigns — managed against booked jobs and cost-per-lead, not impressions and vanity clicks.
Website Design & Development
The foundation every other layer is built on. Fast, mobile-first websites engineered to convert — with technical SEO, schema, and local landing pages built in from the first line of code.
Conversion & Lead Capture
The layer that turns surfaced demand into booked appointments. AI receptionist, missed-call text-back, and multi-channel chat automation — so every call is answered and no lead goes cold, around the clock.
Marketing Automation
The system that keeps every lead moving. CRM, pipelines, and automated follow-up that nurture inquiries into customers — and bring past customers back.
Social Media & Content
A consistent presence on the platforms your customers actually use, fed by a content engine — posts, emails, landing pages — produced in your brand voice and pointed at the same outcome as everything else.
Our stack is the solution to your problems
Every layer we run for you, built as one structure — from the website foundation up to the booked appointment it's all engineered to produce.
Technical SEO, page speed, schema, content, and local landing pages — built mobile-first and engineered to convert. Without a sound foundation, nothing above it holds.
Not a ranking. Not a report. A real lead — qualified, scheduled, and dropped straight into your inbox.
A hostile takeover isn't about ranking. It's about the rate & volume of execution, market saturation, trust and authority.
We move fast, and we don't let up. We saturate every surface a lead can search — the map pack, the organic results, the AI engines, social media — we dominate market visibility and implement an automated conversion layer so the leads we surface become booked appointments.
Then it compounds as we continue. Paid traffic stops the moment you stop paying. SEO does the opposite — every month of content, citations, links, and reviews stacks on the last. The lead widens on its own. Six months in, the gap isn't a ranking — it's a reputation they can't buy back.
Your competitor doesn't just lose rankings... They lose the market.
The reason this agency exists.
Mark Fabela
For 20 years, I've watched local businesses get bullied in their own markets — not by competitors who were better, but by competitors who were louder, sleazier, willing to lie, and knowingly delivered subpar work for profit. I won against those competitors anyway, by being more honest and doing better work. But it had a cost: I couldn't scale ethics. Quality without compromise hit a ceiling.
AI changed the math. For the first time, a level of technical prowess and care that was previously only possible from one specialist is now possible at agency scale — without lowering the bar.
Now we can do this for you.
We offer 3 engagements
Every engagement starts with the audit. Where it goes from there is your call.
Organic SEO visibility
Local Authority
SEO across every organic surface — the compounding asset that widens the lead on its own.
- Website foundation, GBP, citations, reviews
- Entity-based optimization & content
- AI-search visibility (GEO / AEO)
Paid search visibility
Paid Surge
Immediate visibility — the fast strike across every paid surface while the asset builds.
- Google Ads / PPC management

The complete growth marketing stack
Total Takeover
Organic and paid visibility, fully integrated and run by one specialist team. The fast start and the compounding moat, together — what most clients should be on.
- Everything in Local Authority
- Everything in Paid Surge
- One coordinated operation — no fragmentation
Stops when you stop paying.
The flow is instant, and it's real. But it ends the moment the budget does. Nothing accumulates.
Authority compounds.
Every month of content, citations, links, and reviews stacks on the last. Visibility builds trust; trust builds more visibility. The lead widens on its own.
We map your competitor's authority graph, audit entity weaknesses and citation gaps, project a realistic timeline. Paid, required, and yours to keep — even if you never engage us. No engagement without the audit.
Execution across every layer of the stack — website, visibility, conversion — fast, coordinated, relentless. You see the work week to week: what's moving, what isn't, and what's next. An open book, start to finish.
We measure two things relentlessly — your local visibility and your leads. Geo-grid ranking scans across your full service area, map-pack and organic position, plus every call, lead, and booking traced to the source that produced it. No vanity dashboards, no theater — the real numbers, reported plainly, including what isn't working yet.
Position taken, authority compounds — and we press the advantage. We widen the lead month over month and push into new ground: more keywords, more of the map, adjacent service areas. The further ahead you pull, the further out of reach you are — growth is the moat.
No “Guarantees” Either
A relationship that begins with violating Google's TOS was never an ethical one.
We let our reviews do the talking.
We went with a multi-location SEO strategy and we're now ranking Page 1 for priority keywords across nearly every location — even against very large, recognizable competitors. The one marketing partner in a decade that has not only met but beat expectations. No BS, just results.
I met Mark on Reddit on an entrepreneur subreddit and wound up hiring Formula Internet to do SEO for my business's website. He took us from invisible in the search engines to #6 in 33 days. I'm a contractor in Phoenix — I'd recommend him for service-based and location-specific companies like ours.
Mark is a wizard at SEO and website build / design. My website ranked on Page #1 for the most common searches in my industry. I sell fitness equipment — mainly treadmills — and since my launch in April I've sold around 90 treadmills in 3 months. The results have exceeded my expectations and the sales volume continues to grow.
In January, Saleshood was invisible to Google — not showing up for any of our desired keywords. Now we show up and rank high on them. Mark is very hands-on; he took a deep look at our market, our competitors, our content and our website. We saw an immediate lift in 30 days. He's a hard worker and someone you can trust.
My company is among the most recognized in the garment manufacturing industry in LA. We lost all of our SEO rankings after a Google algorithm change. Mark dissected the problem and solved it quickly — we are now back on top of Google. Very efficient and professional.
We've been working with Formula Internet for over 2 years now, on multiple projects. We started with a website redesign — the site is streamlined and the bottom line is we're getting much more traffic. Their team is very easy to work with and very good at explaining all the technical terms.
Mark knows SEO inside and out. Businesses with one or multiple local brick-and-mortar locations consistently rank higher — from maps to specific queries with intent. They do a deep dive, implement a specific game plan with listed deliverables, and deploy. I always recommend Mark anytime someone asks if I know a legit SEO guy.
I would definitely recommend working with Mark. I'm really happy with the collaboration — together we uncovered new areas for improvement that revealed additional opportunities to strengthen the overall SEO strategy.
Mark and his team know what they're doing when it comes to search and internet marketing — they've helped several businesses improve their search visibility higher than much larger competitors.
Over 10 years we've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on marketing professionals, technologies, and promises. Formula Internet is the first company that has delivered above and beyond. We went with a multi-location SEO strategy and we're now ranking Page 1 for priority keywords across nearly every location — even against very large, recognizable competitors. The one marketing partner in a decade that has not only met but beat expectations. No BS, just results.
Geo-grid ranking scans
Real Local Falcon exports — map-pack movement across the full service area, week over week — land here.
Our four non-negotiables.
Not slogans. The operating standard every engagement is held to.
Specialist or nothing
We work with local businesses only — no SaaS, no e-commerce, no DTC. Within that focus we do everything, but we never pretend to be something we're not. The founder pitches; an expert team executes. No junior staff dressed up as specialists. No offshore labor arbitrage. No account managers whose only job is to look busy.
Honest confidence. No guarantees, no theater.
We won't guarantee rankings — that violates Google's Terms of Service, and every agency promising "Page 1 guaranteed" is either lying or breaking policy. What we offer instead is an open book: the methodology, the data, the work — including what isn't working. No dashboard theater. Bet on a 20-year track record, not a promise.
Human-executed. AI-amplified.
Specialists do the work. AI is the leverage — it gives a 20-year operator the research depth, content velocity, and scale that used to take fifty account managers. A level of technical prowess and care that could never be achieved prior to AI. Every output passes through a specialist's hands. Nothing is auto-generated and shipped.
No compromises
The founder built the quality standard over 20 years. Every operator is trained to it. Every output is audited against it. No deliverable ships that doesn't meet the bar — not when we're busy, not when the budget is tight, not when the deadline is hot. The standard is the brand.
We don't offer a dozen services for different business models. We only serve local businesses.
So many marketing agencies offer a dozen services and specialize in none. They do just well enough to keep you hopeful — and keep you paying.
