The Story

Hi, I'm Zane Creek

SEO Specialist, local search nerd, and the person behind LocalSEO Digest.

Why I started this

I'm an SEO Specialist at Timmermann Group in St. Louis with a background in business and entrepreneurship. When I started focusing on local SEO, I noticed there was a gap — most content either oversimplified things or went so deep into theory that it wasn't actionable.

LocalSEO Digest is my answer to that. I document everything I learn, test, and discover about local search — the strategies that work, the ones that don't, and the nuances that actually move the needle for real businesses.

What you'll find here

Real strategies for Google Business Profile optimization, local citations, on-page SEO, review management, and everything else that affects how businesses show up in local search. No fluff, no generic advice — just what I've actually learned works.

I also send a weekly newsletter with the most useful insights, updates, and experiments. Subscribe here.
