What if I don't have a Google Business Profile?

That's actually the most important finding we can give you. We'll flag GBP setup as priority #1 and walk you through getting it created and optimized from scratch.

How fast will I see results?

Category and attribute fixes can move rankings within days. The full system — with consistent posting, photos, and review velocity — typically shows significant movement in 60-90 days.

What types of businesses is this for?

Any local service business that depends on Google for leads — plumbers, HVAC, electricians, roofers, lawyers, dentists, cleaning companies, landscapers. If your customers search '[service] near me,' this is for you.

What makes this different from other SEO audits?

Two things. First, we don't just audit Google — we check your visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Nobody else is doing that for local businesses yet. Second, this is built on 14 years of local SEO execution.

Why does AI search matter for my local business?

More and more people are asking AI assistants 'who's the best plumber near me' instead of Googling it. Those AI answers pull from your reviews, your website structure, your citations, and your web presence. If your digital footprint doesn't feed those models, you're invisible to a growing segment of customers.

Do I need to give you access to my Google account?

For the diagnostic, no. We work from publicly visible data. For the Sprint, we'll need contributor access to your GBP to post and optimize on your behalf.

Orlando, FL · Pest Control

Someone in Orlando just asked AI for pest control. Were you in the answer?

We tested AI tools for pest control queries in Orlando. 82% of the time, they named a specific company. If your business isn't showing up, customers are calling whoever AI picks.

of AI queries for pest control in Orlando returned a named business

The way customers find pest control is changing fast.

Google now shows an AI-generated answer at the top of nearly 7 out of 10 pest control searches. That answer names specific companies. If yours isn't one of them, the customer never scrolls down to find you. And with national franchises like Terminix and Orkin flooding those results, independent operators are getting squeezed out without knowing it.

6 in 10

Google searches now show an AI answer before traditional results. If your business in Orlando isn't in that answer, you're invisible to the majority of searches.

What we found in Orlando

Google's AI answers your customer's question before they see your name

We found that 68.7% of pest control searches on Google triggered an AI Overview — the highest rate of any industry we've tested. That AI answer names companies and summarizes what they offer. If you're not in it, you're not in the running.

Franchises are dominating AI results

Pest control has the highest franchise share of any industry in our study at 13.4%. Terminix, Orkin, and Rentokil have the review volume, the directory presence, and the brand authority that AI tools favor. Independent operators need a clear strategy to compete, not just a Google Business Profile.

Yelp is driving AI recommendations whether you're on it or not

Yelp was a top citation source in 26% of AI responses for pest control queries. If your Yelp listing is incomplete, outdated, or missing entirely, AI tools are either skipping you or pulling the wrong information about your business.

You're visible on one platform and invisible everywhere else

97% of pest control companies in our study appeared on only one AI platform. ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude each pull from different sources. Showing up on Google AI Overviews doesn't mean you exist anywhere else. Most companies have no idea how wide the gap is.

Questions

Yes. We tested AI queries specifically for pest control services in Orlando and found that 82.2% of queries returned a named business. This is real data from our Florida Pest Control AI Visibility Study.

More than almost any other local service. We tested 829 AI queries for pest control across Florida and found that 81% returned a named company. Google alone triggered an AI Overview in nearly 7 out of 10 searches. Customers are getting answers before they ever reach a list of options. If you're not in those answers, you're invisible at the most important moment.

Franchises win on review volume and directory coverage. Independent operators can compete by making sure every major directory has accurate, complete information, building consistent reviews across platforms, and creating content that establishes local expertise. AI tools favor recency and specificity. A well-optimized local business can outrank a national brand in its own market.

Yes. Yelp was a top citation source in 26% of AI responses for pest control queries. You don't have to run Yelp ads, but your listing needs to be claimed, complete, and accurate. An incomplete or unclaimed Yelp profile is a gap that AI tools will fill with a competitor.
