Franchise SEO - Benchmark and Scale Local SEO Across Locations
Franchise SEO is not “one SEO project”—it is a system across locations. Benchmark stores, segment winners vs underperformers, and roll out repeatable local SEO playbooks that improve calls and directions network-wide.

What This Solves (and Why It Matters)
Practical context you can act on immediately—whether you use Gloo or not.
Franchise SEO is governance + benchmarking
Each location competes in a different local market. That means the goal is not one “perfect” setup—it is consistent measurement, clear segmentation, and a repeatable rollout process.
Benchmarking is the unlock: find the winners, understand why they win, and replicate the playbook while fixing the bottom performers first.
- Benchmark stores using the same KPIs and time window
- Segment locations by trend (not by opinion)
- Roll out improvements with a controlled change log
DIY without Gloo (a franchise scorecard that works)
Start with a single scorecard sheet. One row per location. Use the same date window for every location so comparisons are fair.
Track visibility (Maps/Search views), actions (calls/directions), and a short notes field for changes (category edits, photo refresh, review campaigns).
- Rank locations by trend (MoM change), not raw totals
- Create a monthly “bottom 20%” action list
- Copy winners: categories, services, photos, review process
What to do with the scorecard (segmentation → action)
Segmentation turns “reporting” into an operating rhythm: who to copy, who to fix, and what to standardize.
| Segment | What it looks like | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Winners | Strong visibility and actions, improving trend | Document the playbook; replicate to similar markets |
| Stable | Flat trend, predictable output | Run small tests (photos, services, landing page improvements) |
| Slipping | Visibility or actions down vs prior period | Audit categories, listing status, review velocity, duplicates |
| Launch/Low data | New locations or low volume | Focus on basics: completeness, proof, reviews, local landing page |
