Epicureum and GiGi: being on the map when people search for brunch in Granada

Epicureum and GiGi are two brunch spots in Granada with the same goal: to show up on Google Maps when someone searches for where to have breakfast. We work on their Google profiles, new pages for local searches, and their local authority.

The challenge

Where we started

Two businesses with a common goal: gaining presence on Google Maps for breakfast, brunch, and café searches, which are highly contested in Granada.

  1. Improve Google Maps positions for those searches.

  2. Increase organic clicks and impressions on commercial searches.

  3. Build a base of their own: pages on the website and local signals (reviews, posts, and citations).

  4. Start measuring mentions in AI assistants, as another discovery channel.

What we did

The work, by workstream

  • Local SEO

    • Audit and optimization of both Google profiles: products, menu, and Q&A.
    • Ongoing review management and one weekly post on each profile.
    • New photos of the standout dishes on the GiGi profile.
    • Tracking of Google Maps positions.
  • Website SEO

    • Two new pages for Epicureum, for “breakfast in central Granada” and “café Granada,” translated into English, French, and German.
    • Crawl and indexing control, and an optimization plan for the commercial pages.
    • For GiGi: titles and descriptions, local business structured data, and a footer with better internal linking.
  • Local authority

    • Listings in directories and local citations.
    • Mentions in forums such as Reddit.
    • A link collaboration with a local Granada website.

How to read these figures

  • SoLV runs from 0 to 100: it’s the percentage of points on the analyzed map where the profile ranks among the top three results.
  • ARP is the profile’s average position on that map. The lower, the better.
  • On the maps, each circle is a point in the city, and the number is the position where the profile appeared when searching from there. Green means near the top; red, far down.
  • The increase for each figure runs from the first month to the last. The arrows in Local Falcon’s tables compare with the previous measurement, which is why they don’t match it.

Let’s talk

Let’s start by getting acquainted

Tell us what you sell, to whom, and what you’ve tried so far. We’ll tell you frankly whether we can help and where we’d start.

What happens next

  1. You tell us your situation, through the calendar or the form.
  2. We talk: your context, what you want to achieve, and whether we’re a fit.
  3. If we’re a fit, we propose how to start: the audit and its scope, in writing.

The first conversation is to get to know each other; the audit comes later, if we decide to work together.
