Local SEO has become a lifeline for businesses that rely on nearby customers. Whether you run a retail shop, a restaurant, or a service-based company, appearing at the top of Google’s “near me” searches can dramatically increase calls, visits, and revenue.
At Cyprus Digital Agency, we specialize in helping businesses achieve precisely that. This case study highlights how we helped a mattress store climb to the #1 position in Google’s local search results, boosting both visibility and sales.
The Challenges of SEO
The client, a specialty mattress retailer in Dubai were facing high competition in a crowded marketplace. Despite offering high-quality products and excellent customer service, their Google Business Profile (GBP) wasn’t delivering results:
- Low visibility in “near me” and product-specific searches
- Inconsistent business information across directories
- Few customer reviews and limited engagement
- Competitors with stronger online footprints
The store wanted to dominate local search so that when people in their city looked for terms like “cheap bed mattress near me” or “best bed mattress in Dubai,” their business would appear first.
Our SEO Objectives
Cyprus Digital Agency set clear goals:
- Increase local rankings for primary and secondary keywords.
- Optimize the Google Business Profile to stand out visually and informatively.
- Boost engagement through customer reviews and regular updates.
- Drive measurable business growth—more calls, more store visits and more sales.
Step 1: Comprehensive Local SEO Audit
We began with a deep-dive audit covering:
- Keyword Analysis : We have identified high-intent search terms like “cheap mattress near me,” “mattress Dubai,” and other long-tail variations.
- Competitor Benchmarking – Analyzed the top five competing businesses to understand their strengths and weaknesses.
- Profile Assessment – Reviewed their Google Business Profile for completeness, accuracy and keyword relevance.
- Citation & Link Review – Checked directory listings for consistency and authority.
This audit gave us a clear roadmap for improvement.
Step 2: Google Business Profile Optimization
A Google Business Profile is the centerpiece of local SEO. We:
- Updated the business description with keyword-rich, customer-friendly copy.
- Added high-resolution photos of the showroom and products to increase click-through rates.
- Ensured NAP (Name, Address, Phone) consistency across all online platforms.
- Created product categories and detailed service listings to match user queries.
- Set up regular posts and updates to keep the profile active and engaging.

- Claimed and optimized listings on high-quality directories and niche-specific platforms.
- Secured backlinks from reputable local sites and industry-related blogs.
- Monitored all citations to ensure uniform business information.
These actions-built trust with Google and improved the site’s local authority.
Step 4: Review & Engagement Strategy
Reviews are a key ranking factor for local search. Our strategy included:
- Implementing a follow-up system to request reviews from happy customers.
- Guiding staff to respond promptly and professionally to all reviews, positive or negative.
- Highlighting reviews on social media to amplify credibility.
- We also implemented our turbo technique as well to boost well.
Within weeks, the store’s star rating improved, and the number of reviews increased significantly.
Step 5: Tracking and Continuous Improvement
Using Google Analytics and GBP Insights, we tracked:
- Click-to-call actions
- Direction requests
- Search impressions and ranking improvements
Regular reports helped us fine-tune keywords and posts, ensuring the upward trend continued.
