"We serve the whole RGV" doesn't rank on Google
When a customer in Brownsville searches for "plumber Brownsville TX" — Google does not show a general "we serve all of South Texas" page. It shows businesses with a dedicated Brownsville page that proves local relevance with the right content, schema, and signals.
Most RGV agencies build one service page and add a line that says "serving McAllen, Brownsville, and all of the Rio Grande Valley." That doesn't rank. The businesses showing up in each city's Map Pack have pages built specifically for that city.
We build a dedicated page for every city you want to rank in — with unique content, local schema markup, and internal linking that tells Google exactly what you do and where you do it.

RGV businesses getting real results
Real clients, real outcomes. No made-up metrics.
The website they built loads in under a second and looks better than anything in our industry. But more importantly — it actually shows up when people search for car repair in Brownsville. Our Google traffic doubled in the first month.
Summer is our busiest season and we were losing jobs to competitors who showed up on Google and we didn't. RankRGV fixed that. We're now in the top 3 for 'AC repair Mission TX' heading into this summer. Game changer.
I was skeptical about digital marketing — but RankRGV showed me exactly which searches my clients were using and built pages targeting every single one. We now rank #1 for 'personal injury attorney Edinburg.' Worth every dollar.
I had a website but nobody could find it. RankRGV built out our McAllen and Edinburg pages, cleaned up our Google Business Profile, and within 60 days we were getting calls from Google Maps. First time ever.
We switched from a national marketing company that never understood the RGV market. RankRGV is local — they knew exactly what Harlingen patients search for. Our new patient inquiries from Google went up 4× in three months.
Questions about our RGV service areas
Which cities in the Rio Grande Valley does RankRGV serve?
RankRGV serves businesses throughout the Rio Grande Valley, with dedicated SEO strategies for McAllen, Brownsville, Edinburg, Harlingen, Mission, and Pharr. Each city gets its own set of optimized pages — not a copy-paste of another city's content. We understand the local market dynamics, search patterns, and competitive landscape for each RGV city.
Does RankRGV work with businesses that serve multiple RGV cities?
Yes — this is one of the most common scenarios we handle. Many RGV businesses operate as service area businesses (SABs): they serve customers across multiple cities but don't have a physical location in each one. We build the right page architecture for every city you want to rank in — dedicated city pages, proper schema markup, and a GBP service area configuration that covers your full territory without diluting your primary market.
Do you build separate pages for each RGV city?
Yes, and this is critical. A single "we serve the whole RGV" page does not rank for city-specific searches. Google needs to see a dedicated page for "SEO company Brownsville TX" to rank you for that search — and a different page for Edinburg, Harlingen, and so on. We build each city page with unique, locally-relevant content so they rank independently and don't compete with each other.
Can you rank my business in cities where I have no physical presence?
Yes. Google's local algorithm allows service area businesses to rank in cities they actively serve, without a physical address there. The key is the right combination: a properly configured Google Business Profile with service areas set, dedicated city pages on your website, and local signals (citations, reviews mentioning the city) that confirm you actually operate there. We handle all of this.
Is SEO competition the same across all RGV cities?
No — and this matters for prioritization. McAllen is the most competitive market in the RGV, though still weak compared to Austin or Dallas. Brownsville, Edinburg, and Harlingen are slightly less competitive. Mission and Pharr have the least competition for most keywords. We prioritize your primary city first, then build outward across the RGV as rankings establish.
