What Google shows

## Irvine searches are crowded before your site

* Map pack: **"best periodontist in Irvine, California for gum disease treatment"**. Google showed a map pack and an AI Overview first. Organic results sat below both.
* Directories: **"best hair salon in Irvine, California for curly hair"**. Google showed a map pack and an AI Overview, with Google's own results leading the page.
* Legal: **"best divorce lawyer in Irvine, California for a high-asset divorce"**. A map pack and an AI Overview appeared. A legal directory held the first organic result.
* No map: **"best hospital in Irvine, California for heart surgery"**. No map pack here, but Google still showed an AI Overview above the regular results.

You have to win the map, the top 10 and the AI answer. Each one needs its own work.

FAQ

## Irvine SEO questions, answered

### What does an Irvine SEO company actually do?

We tune your profile, categories, reviews and local pages so Google trusts your business for nearby searches. Read more on [Google Business Profile](https://www.llmreach.ai/seo-services/google-business-profile) and [local SEO](https://www.llmreach.ai/seo-services/local-seo).
