What We Do

Five services, one goal: a stronger, safer online presence

Most local businesses lose customers in three places — they don't show up in search, their website doesn't convert, or their site gets compromised. Pearce Studios works on all three.

Local SEO

Google Business Profile optimization, Maps visibility, reviews, and local rankings — the work that puts your business in front of nearby customers at the moment they're ready to buy.

Local SEO details →

Web Development

Fast, custom-built websites — no bloated page builders, no fragile plugin stacks. Clean code that loads quickly, works on every device, and is built to be maintained.

Development details →

Web Design

Clean, conversion-focused design. Clear messaging, obvious next steps, and a look that makes a small business feel like the obvious, trustworthy choice.

Design details →

Cyber Security Consulting

Risk reviews and practical security guidance for small businesses — plain-English assessments of where you're exposed and what to fix first, in priority order.

Security consulting details →

Website Security Consulting

Hardening, updates, malware prevention and cleanup guidance, and ongoing protection for the website your business runs on — before a breach becomes your problem.

Tools We Built

We don't just advise on Google Business Profile work — we built the software. CTR Task Automator and JP's Cloud Profiles automate GBP and Maps campaigns.

How We Work

Straightforward process, no agency runaround

You work directly with the owner. Every engagement starts with an honest look at where you stand — then a plan sized to your business, not a package you don't need.

Review

We audit your Google presence, website, and security posture, and show you exactly what we find.

Plan

You get a prioritized plan — what to fix first, what it takes, and what results to expect.

Build & Optimize

We do the work: rankings, website, design, and security hardening, done properly.

Protect & Grow

Ongoing updates, monitoring, and reporting so gains hold and problems get caught early.

Our Tools

Software we built for Google Business Profile work

Pearce Studios builds the CTR Task Automator product line — Windows tools that automate Google Business Profile and Google Maps work for agencies, marketers, and multi-location operators.

CTR Task Automator

The original Windows desktop app. It automates Google Business Profile and Google Maps Search / Visit / Engage sequences across isolated MostLogin browser profiles. From $99/month per computer license.

CTR Task Automator 2 — JP's Cloud Profiles

The version 2 cloud workspace: Google Maps keyword research, business campaigns, and reporting in one view — no API keys of your own to manage. $350 USD/month per license.

Free Tool — Maps Grid Rank Checker

01 · Local SEO

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google decides in seconds which businesses to show. Local SEO is the work of making sure yours is one of them — in the Map Pack, in Maps results, and in local organic listings.

Pearce Studios handles the full picture: a properly built and maintained Google Business Profile, the categories and services that match how customers actually search, a review engine that keeps fresh reviews coming in, and the website signals that support your rankings instead of fighting them.

  • Google Business Profile optimization — categories, services, attributes, photos, and posts done right
  • Maps visibility — improving where you appear across the areas you actually serve
  • Review strategy — systems for earning, monitoring, and responding to reviews
  • Local rankings — on-page and citation work that supports Map Pack placement
  • CTR expertise — the same know-how behind our CTR Task Automator tools, applied to your profile
02 · Web Development

Web Development

A slow, fragile website quietly costs you customers every day. We build fast, custom websites with clean code — no bloated page builders, no dozens of plugins waiting to break on the next update.

Every build is mobile-first, because most of your customers will meet you on a phone, and structured so search engines can understand exactly what you do and where you do it.

  • Custom-built websites — designed and coded for your business, not a rented template
  • Speed first — lightweight pages that load fast on real phones and real connections
  • Mobile-first builds — flawless on phones, tablets, and desktops
  • SEO-ready structure — clean markup and page structure search engines can read
  • Maintainable code — a site you own outright, that doesn't fall apart over time
03 · Web Design

Web Design

Design is not decoration — it's the difference between a visitor who calls and one who clicks back to Google. We design websites that make a local business look established, trustworthy, and easy to buy from.

Clear headlines that say what you do, obvious calls and quote buttons on every screen, and a visual identity that matches the quality of your actual work.

  • Conversion-focused layouts — every page built around one clear next step
  • Clear messaging — headlines and copy a visitor understands in five seconds
  • Trust signals up front — reviews, credentials, and proof placed where decisions happen
  • Consistent branding — colors, type, and imagery that look like one professional business
  • Redesigns — modernizing an existing site without losing your search presence
04 · Cyber Security Consulting

Cyber Security Consulting

Small businesses are targeted precisely because attackers assume nobody is watching. A security review from Pearce Studios shows you where you're actually exposed — accounts, devices, software, backups, and habits — and what to fix first.

Guidance is practical and prioritized: no scare tactics, no enterprise jargon, no selling you tools you don't need. You get a clear picture of your risk and a workable plan to reduce it.

  • Risk reviews — a structured look at your accounts, devices, and exposure
  • Practical guidance — prioritized fixes in plain English, sized for a small business
  • Account & access hygiene — passwords, multi-factor authentication, and who has access to what
  • Backup & recovery readiness — making sure one bad day doesn't become your last day
  • Staff habits — the everyday practices that prevent most real-world incidents
05 · Website Security Consulting

Website Security Consulting

Your website is your storefront, your lead engine, and — if it's compromised — a liability. Website security consulting keeps it hardened, updated, and monitored so it stays an asset.

We review how your site is built and hosted, close the common doors attackers walk through, and put ongoing protection in place. If a site is already infected, we guide the cleanup and the steps that keep it from happening again.

  • Security hardening — configuration and access controls that shut down common attacks
  • Updates & patching — a real process for keeping site software current
  • Malware prevention — reducing the ways a site gets infected in the first place
  • Cleanup guidance — what to do, step by step, when a site is already compromised
  • Ongoing protection — monitoring and maintenance so problems surface early

Which service does your business need first?

Tell us where it hurts — rankings, website, or security — and we'll recommend the right starting point, honestly, even if it's smaller than you expected.

Our Tools

CTR Task Automator — built by Pearce Studios

Two Windows tools for Google Business Profile and Google Maps work, built from our own Local SEO practice: the original desktop Automator, and the version 2 cloud-profile workspace.

Tool 1 · Desktop

Automation that runs on your own machine

Windows Desktop App

CTR Task Automator

Automates Google Business Profile and Google Maps tasks across MostLogin browser profiles.

CTR Task Automator runs structured Search / Visit / Engage sequences against Google Business Profiles and Google Maps — the repetitive profile work that supports CTR and visibility campaigns — across your MostLogin browser profiles. Every profile stays fully isolated: separate cookies, separate fingerprints, separate sessions, and its own proxy binding, so each profile behaves like its own machine.

  • Search / Visit / Engage sequences — automated GBP and Maps task flows
  • MostLogin profile integration — run tasks across your existing browser profiles
  • Full profile isolation — cookies, fingerprints, sessions, and proxy binding kept separate per profile
  • Per-computer licensing — the installer and your license key are sent after payment
$99 /month · 1 computer license

$350 /month · up to 5 licenses

Tool 2 · Version 2 Workspace

Keyword research, campaigns, and reporting in one view

Windows · Cloud Profiles

CTR Task Automator 2 | JP's Cloud Profiles

The version 2 workspace — no API keys of your own to set up or manage.

Version 2 brings Google Maps keyword research, business campaigns, and reporting together in a single Windows workspace. Instead of wiring up your own API access, you sign in with a customer access code — JP's Cloud Profiles manages the connection for you, so there are no API keys to create, secure, or troubleshoot.

  • Up to 10 business campaigns per license
  • 3 keywords per business, with up to 10 attempts per business per day
  • Scheduled windows in local time zones
  • Activity history + CSV reporting — see what ran, and export it
  • One registered installation per code — your access code, your machine
$350 USD/month · per license

As noted on the product site, Stripe checkout for version 2 is currently being connected — see the product page for the latest on how to get started.

Tool 3 · Built Into This Site

A free rank checker that runs right here

Free · Bring Your Own API Key

Maps Grid Rank Checker

Built into this site — no software to install, nothing to download.

Want to see how your business actually ranks on Google Maps across your area — not just standing at your own front door? The Rank Checker runs a grid scan using your own DataForSEO API key: find your business, pick a keyword, and check rankings at 9 to 169 points around your location.

  • Grid sizes 3×3 to 13×13 with 0.5, 1, or 2 mile point spacing
  • Numbered map pins colored by rank — green for top 3, amber to 10, orange to 20
  • Instant summary — average, best, and worst rank, plus % of points in the top 3 and top 10
  • Your key, your account — scans run on your own DataForSEO credits; credentials are never saved

Which Tool Fits?

Desktop automation vs. the cloud workspace

Choose CTR Task Automator if…

You already run MostLogin profiles and want Search / Visit / Engage automation executed locally, profile by profile, with full isolation between them. Best for operators managing their own profile infrastructure.

Choose JP's Cloud Profiles if…

You want keyword research, campaign scheduling, and reporting handled in one workspace without managing API keys. Best for operators who want campaigns running on a schedule with exportable history.

Free Tool

Free Google Maps Grid Rank Checker

See how your business ranks on Google Maps across your whole service area — not just at your front door. Use your own DataForSEO API key to run a grid scan from 3×3 up to 13×13 points and see exactly where you show up, and where you disappear.

Step 1 · Your DataForSEO API credentials

This checker runs on your own DataForSEO account, so the scan tasks are billed to you by DataForSEO — not by Pearce Studios. New to DataForSEO? You can create an account at dataforseo.com, then paste your API login and password here.

Your credentials are used only to run your searches and scans. They are never saved by Pearce Studios.

Step 2 · Find your business

Use the exact business name as it appears on your Google Business Profile, plus the city and state your business is listed in.

Step 3 · Run your scan

No business selected yet — find your business in Step 2 and click its listing to place it on the map.

Map tiles couldn't load right now — the grid, pins, and results still work. Check your connection and refresh.

About Jordan Pearce

For 17 years, I've helped businesses get found online, look credible, and stay protected. My work combines local SEO, web development, web design, AI, and cybersecurity, with a particular focus on physical penetration testing and website security.

What I do

Local SEO: I help local and multi-location businesses show up where customers are searching. That includes Google Business Profile optimization, citations, review strategy, technical and on-page SEO, and location-focused content that earns visibility in the map pack and organic results.

Web development and design: I build fast, mobile-first, search-friendly websites with layouts that build trust quickly and guide visitors toward a clear next step, whether that's a call, a booking, or a purchase.

AI: I use AI for research, content workflows, automation, and analysis. I focus on practical applications that save time and improve results rather than chasing hype.

Cybersecurity: As a physical and website penetration tester at Cyber One, I tested how real attackers could get past locks, badges, and people as well as code, logins, and servers. Physical security and website security are often treated separately, but attackers don't see them that way, and neither do I.

What sets me apart

Most professionals specialize in one area. I combine marketing, development, design, AI, and security, so a site is built to rank, convert, and withstand attack. I've seen both sides of security, the physical and the digital, and I bring that adversarial mindset to every website I build and every security assessment I perform.

How I work

I'm hands-on, transparent, and results-driven. I measure success by what matters to the business: more calls, more leads, more revenue, and fewer vulnerabilities. After nearly two decades, I've watched search algorithms, design trends, and threats come and go, and I focus on the fundamentals that keep working.

Pearce Studios also builds its own software — the CTR Task Automator product line grew directly out of the Google Business Profile and Maps work I do for clients.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

About our consulting services, how engagements work, and the CTR Task Automator tools.

Ask Something Else

Pearce Studios is a consulting firm owned by Jordan Pearce. We provide five services: Local SEO, Web Development, Web Design, Cyber Security Consulting, and Website Security Consulting — plus we build the CTR Task Automator tools for Google Business Profile work.

Google Business Profile optimization (categories, services, attributes, photos, posts), Maps visibility work for the areas you serve, review strategy and response systems, and the website and citation signals that support local rankings — including the CTR know-how behind our own Automator tools.

Both. New sites are custom-built — fast, mobile-first, and coded cleanly rather than assembled from heavy page builders. Redesigns modernize an existing site while protecting the search presence you've already earned.

Cyber security consulting looks at your whole business — accounts, devices, access, backups, and day-to-day habits — and prioritizes what to fix. Website security consulting focuses on the website itself: hardening, updates and patching, malware prevention, cleanup guidance if a site is compromised, and ongoing protection.

Yes — website security consulting includes cleanup guidance for compromised sites: identifying how the infection got in, removing it, and putting hardening and update practices in place so it doesn't come back. Reach out through the consultation form and describe what you're seeing.

It's our Windows desktop app for Google Business Profile and Google Maps work. It automates Search / Visit / Engage sequences across MostLogin browser profiles, with each profile fully isolated — separate cookies, fingerprints, sessions, and proxy binding. Licensing is per computer: $99/month for one license, $189/month for three, and $350/month for up to five. The installer and license key are sent after payment. Details at ctrta.jordanpearce.com.

Version 2 is a Windows workspace that combines Google Maps keyword research, business campaigns, and reporting in one view. You don't need your own API keys — you use a customer access code and JP's Cloud Profiles manages the connection. Each license covers up to 10 business campaigns, 3 keywords per business, up to 10 attempts per business per day, scheduled windows in local time zones, activity history with CSV reporting, and one registered installation per code. It's $350 USD/month per license. As noted on the product site, Stripe checkout is being connected — check ctrtaapi.jordanpearce.com for the latest.

If you already manage MostLogin profiles and want automation running locally with full profile isolation, choose the original CTR Task Automator. If you'd rather have keyword research, scheduled campaigns, and reporting in one workspace without managing API keys, choose JP's Cloud Profiles. The Tools page compares them side by side.
