Buying intent
A keyword whose searcher wants a service now, not just general information. A modest keyword with clear intent beats a popular one that brings the curious.

SEO for Small Businesses: Start with 3 Keywords at an Open Price
Velolinx promotes small businesses and freelancers on Google with a monthly package from 3 keywords at ₪1,790/mo + VAT. It includes work on your site, links from niche sites built for your field and a transparent monthly report, with no fixed term. When the Google map matters too, Authority Engine adds Google Business Profile promotion.
Who it is for
A small business does not need a corporate plan. It needs a few right keywords, a site ready to rank for them, and someone doing the work consistently every month. It fits especially well for:
- Freelancers and tradespeople whose work comes mostly from referrals today, and who want a source of enquiries that does not depend only on them
- Local businesses with a defined service area: clinics, studios, garages and home service providers
- Businesses paying for every click today that want a channel which keeps working when the ad budget stops
- Small online stores with a few main categories that bring most of the sales
- Businesses with an existing site, even one that was not built with SEO in mind
How the first 3 keywords are chosen
In a small package every keyword counts, so choosing them is half the work. The 3 keywords are selected from keyword research that checks what your customers really type, and they are measured by three tests:
Competition you can beat
We check who is on the first page today and what it takes to compete with them. A young site is better off starting with focused keywords, often local ones, and expanding from there.
Value to the business
The keywords should lead to the jobs you want more of: the profitable service, the area that suits you, the customer who fits you.
Illustrative example
A physiotherapy clinic in Petah Tikva would not start from the term physiotherapy, which competes with the whole country. It could start from keywords such as:
- physiotherapist in Petah Tikva
- physiotherapy for back pain in Petah Tikva
- physiotherapy after knee surgery
Want to check the keywords before you start? The keyword research report can also be ordered on its own, for a one-time ₪250 + VAT.
What happens in months 1, 3 and 6
Organic SEO builds up gradually, so it helps to know what happens at each stage and what gets checked. This is the working framework, with no promise of a position or a date:
Month 1
Foundations and a starting point
Business discovery and keyword selection, a technical check of the site and work on the pages that target the keywords: titles, structure and content. Link building from niche sites starts in parallel, and the first report documents what was done and where the site stands today, so there is something to compare against.
Month 3
A first reading of the data
By now there are several months of work to look at. We check which keywords are moving and which are stuck, which pages need strengthening, and whether the chosen keywords bring the right enquiries. If needed, we adjust course.
Month 6
Review and decide
Half a year of work shows a trend rather than fluctuations. This is the time to decide together: continue at the same scope, expand to more keywords and to the Google Business Profile, or change focus based on what the data shows.
Nobody controls Google's algorithm, so we do not name a position or a date. What you get every month is documented work and a transparent report, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Your site and your Google Business Profile, together
When someone searches for a service in their area, Google usually shows a map with three businesses above the regular results. For a small local business that is often where the decision on whom to call is made. The site and the listing reinforce each other: the listing points to the site, the site confirms the business details, services and service area, and reviews and content together show Google and customers that this is a real, active business.
That is why, for businesses serving a defined area, we recommend working on both. The Authority Engine package includes 6 keywords plus Google Business Profile promotion. If you want to focus on the map first, start with Google Maps promotion, with packages from ₪800/mo + VAT.

SEO for small businesses: frequently asked questions
Our smallest monthly package, Magnet Boost, costs ₪1,790/mo + VAT and includes 3 keywords, work on your site, links and a monthly report. If a monthly budget is not possible yet, you can start with a keyword research report for a one-time ₪250 + VAT and work from it yourself.
Some of the work you can do yourself: keep your Google Business Profile up to date, write clear titles and publish content that answers your customers' questions. What is hard to do alone is building authority consistently and safely, meaning links from relevant sites over months, combined with technical work on the site. That is the part businesses usually hire a provider for.
There is no date anyone can name in advance, because nobody controls Google's algorithm. The pace depends on competition, the condition and age of your site, and the keywords chosen. Month one builds foundations, month three gives a first reading of the data, and by month six you can judge a trend and decide how to continue. Every month the report shows what was done and how the keywords are moving.
Organic SEO needs a site to promote, so without one you start differently. A Google Business Profile can bring enquiries even without a site, and we offer dedicated packages for promoting it. In parallel you can build a site that is ready for SEO from day one through our development studio, VeloWeb.
There is no fixed term. The packages are a renewing monthly subscription you can stop. Work done on your site, such as improved titles, structure and content, stays on your site after you stop.
Every month you get a transparent report: which links were built and where they were published, what changed on the site, and how the keywords we chose together are moving. If anything in the report is unclear, ask and you will get an answer.
A little time at the start: a discovery call about your services, area and customers, approval of the keywords, and access to the site so we can work on its pages. After that the ongoing work is on us, and what we need from you is mostly short answers when a question about the business comes up.
With paid ads you pay for every click, and the traffic stops the moment the budget runs out. Organic SEO builds more slowly, but once a site appears in the regular results it does not pay for each visit. Small businesses often combine the two: paid ads for immediate enquiries and organic SEO as a foundation that builds up over time.
