Boosting Local Visibility
for a Small Café

Sunrise Café was well-known among its regular customers for quality coffee and a cozy atmosphere, but they faced major obstacles in growing their customer base online. Their website had an outdated design, was not mobile-friendly, and lacked proper SEO structure, making it difficult for potential customers to discover them in search results.

On top of that, the café had minimal presence on Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) and no consistent strategy for collecting or showcasing customer reviews. This meant they were missing out on valuable visibility in local search and map results — where competitors were already gaining traction.
