The return on ranking

Ranking in the local pack for 'tent rentals [city]' can generate 5-10 qualified leads per month. Closing just two of these leads, with an average value of $1,000 each, directly covers the typical monthly SEO investment.

Search intent is mostly local and competition is medium. Rankings here are geo split, so a national average position hides what a buyer in one metro actually sees. Positions warrant a weekly check rather than a monthly report.
