From zero to #1 on Google Maps: website + local SEO for Gym Machine Cable LTD
Industry: custom cables for power machines (production/service, B2B/B2C, UK)
Scope of Handlopolis: Keyword analysis, architecture and copy, website design and implementation, technical configuration, Google Business Profile (Maps), optimisation and linking.
➡ See website: gym-machine-cable.com
Project objective
- Launch a light, fast page to present the service custom gym cables (making/replacing machine cables) with a clear call for contact.
- Gain visibility in Google Maps for local intentions: repair/replacement of cables for machines, „.„gym machine cable”, „custom gym cables”, „replacement gym cables”.
- Simplify the enquiry path: form + phone + quick quote from photo/parameters.
Research and keyword strategy
Assumptions: compact niche, high purchase intent, often urgent need (broken link = machine shutdown). Priority: „problem → solution” and „brand-agnostic” phrases (e.g. Life Fitness, Technogym, Cybex as contexts, but without positioning on manufacturers' brands to avoid unnecessary legal clashes).
Key clusters
- Service core: gym machine cables, custom gym cables, replacement gym cables, gym cable repair
- Local Intent: gym cable repair London / UK, cable replacement near me
- Equipment/types: cable crossover cable, functional trainer cable, lat pulldown cable
- Materials/parameters: nylon coated steel cable, 7×19, ball stop, fittings
Content map
- Home (USP, CTA, quick brief for quotation)
- How do I order a cable? (dimensions, photos of ends, safety)
- FAQ (durability, coatings, diameters, compatibility, SLA)
- Contact (form + phone, hours, service area)
- Terms and conditions / policies (clear rules for custom orders)
Design and implementation
- Information architecture: minimum number of clicks to contact; fixed CTA in header and footer; form with fields for specific specifications (diameter, length, tip type, photo).
- Copy and UX: problem-solution language, „How it works” section in 3 steps, safety microcopy.
- Technicalities: fast theme, image compression, cache, correct H1-H3 headings, breadcrumbs scheme, favicon and social-share tags (OG/Twitter).
- Compliance: bright Terms & Conditions for personalised orders (custom = no returns except for defects).
Google Maps / Google Business Profile
- Completion of NAP (name-address-telephone) + categories and „services”.
- Profile description (USP: short deadlines, tailoring to a specific machine model, advice).
- Graphics: before/after, close-ups of tips, assembly safety.
- Publications (Posts) - mini tips and repair cases.
- Construction trust signals: quick responses to feedback, FAQ in profile.
Effect: After implementation and indexation, the profile has reached the top positions in Google Maps for selected local phrases (as of the moment of publishing the entry).*
*Phrases can change positions over time and between user locations. Constant publications, feedback and NAP consistency sustain visibility.
Linking and external signals
- Basic company citations (industry directories, company profiles).
- Guest posts/guide articles on maintenance and rope safety in machinery.
- Internal linking from the Handlopolis ecosystem to the client's site:
