SEO consultant in the Northern Rivers
Byron Bay to Tweed, in person.
Introduction
I live here. If you're a business in the Northern Rivers that isn't showing up in Google, Google Maps or AI search, I can come and sit at your desk and tell you why.
Most of my clients are Australia-wide and we work over video. This is the one region where I don't have to.
01 - What's different up here
Seasonal, local, and competitive on Maps.
Northern Rivers businesses live and die on Google Maps and on tourist traffic that spikes and drops. Most sites are set up for neither.
Byron and the coast are crowded on Google Maps, especially in tourism, wellness and hospitality. A clean, active Google Business Profile with reviews beats a bigger website almost every time. It's the first thing I check.
Inland, in Lismore, Ballina and the hinterland, the opposite problem: good businesses with no web presence to speak of, being beaten by whoever bothered to set up a listing. That's a fast fix.

05 - FAQ
Local questions.
Do you only work with Northern Rivers businesses?
No. Most of my clients are elsewhere in Australia. This is just where I can turn up in person.
Do you do Google Business Profile setup?
Yes. For a lot of local businesses it's the whole first month of work.
What about tourism and hospitality?
Seasonal search is its own thing. The plan accounts for when people are actually looking, not just what they search.
