Checklist

Monthly local SEO check-in checklist for one client

Use this list once a month for each local client, before you write the update email. It keeps every check-in the same, so you spot changes instead of starting from scratch.

The checklist

  • Open the client's project and confirm the site, activity and area are still correct.
  • Check the tracked keywords and note which positions moved up or down since last month.
  • Run a visibility grid on Google Maps and compare it with last month's grid for the same area.
  • Re-run the Google Business Profile audit and look at categories, reviews and posts.
  • Check the directories again for any new mismatch in name, address or phone number.
  • Look at page speed and Core Web Vitals in case a recent site change slowed things down.
  • Scan the technical audit for new indexing or crawl errors.
  • Update the action plan: mark finished tasks and re-sort what is left by impact.
  • Export the PDF report with your branding or the client's.
  • Write two or three lines in the email on what changed and what you will do next month, then attach the report.
