SEO services in Auburn, CA
Rune does local SEO for Auburn and Placer County businesses: Google Business Profile setup and cleanup, pages for each service and each town from Auburn to Meadow Vista, Newcastle, Loomis, and Cool, citations, reviews, and rank tracking reported in plain language.
Foothill businesses sell to two audiences at once: neighbors who search by town, and visitors who search before they arrive. A winery, an event company, a restaurant, a contractor, and a law office each win on different searches, so we start by finding the searches that bring your customers and build the pages and profile for those, rather than selling one SEO package to everyone.
No guaranteed rankings. A one-page report each month of what changed and what moved.

What we do for Auburn businesses
Quoted fixed-price before any work starts, and reported plainly each month.
Google Business Profile for Auburn
Categories, hours, photos, a service area across Placer County, products or a menu where they apply, and a description that matches your site. The profile is what puts a business in the Map Pack.
Town pages across Placer County
A page for Auburn and one for each town you serve, Meadow Vista, Newcastle, Loomis, Cool, and beyond, each written for that place and that search rather than copied with the name swapped.
Event and seasonal pages
Races, festivals, tastings, and classes get their own pages with event structured data, so they appear when people search for what is on, with registration a click away. We build the registration and payment flow too.
Citations and consistency
Name, address, and phone identical across Google, Apple Maps, Bing Places, Yelp, and the local directories that already list you, with duplicates and old addresses cleaned up.
A fast site that Google can rank
Many foothill sites run on Wix or off-the-shelf WordPress themes. In our mobile Lighthouse test a typical template site loaded in 9.1 seconds and a Rune build in 2.8. Speed is one of the things Google ranks on, and we build for it.
Tracking you can read
Rank tracking for the Auburn and Placer County searches that matter, Google Search Console, and call and form tracking, reported plainly each month.
Local SEO & Google Business Profile
Google Business Profile, done right
Categories, services, service area, hours, photos, and a description that matches your site. We fix the listing most businesses set up in ten minutes and never touch again.
A page for each town and service
Google ranks pages, not businesses. Each service and each town you serve gets its own page written for that search, with structured data so Google can read it.
Citations and consistency
Your name, address, and phone the same everywhere: directories, Apple Maps, Bing Places, and the old listings you forgot about. Conflicts cost rankings.
Reviews that keep coming
A review link and a simple ask built into how you finish a job, so new reviews arrive steadily instead of in one suspicious burst.
Speed and structure
A fast site with clean structure is table stakes for local ranking. If your current site is slow, we say so, and we fix it rather than optimizing around it.
Tracking you can read
Rank tracking for the searches that matter, Google Search Console, and call and form tracking, reported plainly each month. No vanity dashboards.

Questions from Auburn
Do you meet with Auburn businesses in person?
Yes, whenever a project calls for it, with video, phone, and email in between. You always work directly with the engineer doing the work.
Is SEO different for a winery or an event business than for a contractor?
Yes. A contractor wins on "service plus town" searches and the Map Pack. A winery or event business also wins on what-to-do searches from people who have not picked a town yet, which calls for event pages, structured data, and a profile with photos and a current calendar. We plan the pages around the searches, not the other way round.
Our site is on Wix. Can you do SEO on it?
Some of it. The Google Business Profile, citations, and reviews work no matter what the site runs on. Page speed and structure are limited by the platform, and we tell you plainly when a rebuild would do more than optimizing around it.
How long until an Auburn business sees results?
Profile fixes and new pages can move things within weeks. Competitive searches across Placer County take months of steady work. We set the expectation by the search, not with a blanket promise, and show the numbers monthly.
Can you just set up our Google Business Profile?
Yes. A one-time setup or cleanup is a fixed-price job quoted up front. Ongoing work is optional.
