What is a Local Search Grid? The Local Search Grid can show you where your business is ranking on a more granular level. Instead of giving you an overall ranking for your whole city, the grid shows where you rank from one neighbourhood to the next.

What is Reputation Manager? Reputation Manager is the part of MAP Local dedicated to managing your online reputation. In the past, it’s been difficult for online marketers to influence online reviews. After all, marketers don’t typically have face-to-face interactions with customers, and rarely dictate processes around customer interactions — this is why Reputation Manager was built. The platform sends intelligent review invites to customers, providing the business with the best possible chance of receiving new online reviews that fit in the top review sites’ guidelines. It also gives detailed reporting and customer feedback for internal reporting, which helps you to develop your business over time.

The website for Oak Bay Family Chiropractic Centre
By Conscious Commerce May 22, 2025
We recently completed a website migration for Oak Bay Family Chiropractic Centre , moving them from Perfect Patients to MAP Web . Along with the migration, we gave their site a fresh, modern look with a cleaner layout and clearer navigation to make it easier for visitors to find what they need. The services were reorganized to better highlight what they offer, and stronger calls-to-action were added to encourage bookings and inquiries. We also improved mobile responsiveness so the site works smoothly on any device. The new site is easier for Oak Bay Family Chiropractic Centre to manage internally and reflects their brand more consistently with updated colours, fonts, and design elements.

OS Systems Ltd. came to us with the goal of updating their brand to reflect who they are today. Their old branding lacked cohesion, depth, and a strong identity and their digital presence especially the website, wasn’t telling the right story. Branding Direction To help reach this goal we set out to create a bold but approachable brand that clearly communicated professionalism, innovation, and trust. The new identity started with a new logo: a stylized “O” embedded with wiring, circuitry, and a lock icon. This not only made the logo recognizable, but also reinforced OS Systems’ role in delivering smart, integrated security solutions. To support the new look, we introduced: A tech-forward iconography set A colour palette built around blues and teals (trust, safety, innovation) Clear, confident typography using Poppins for body and Oswald for the tagline A refreshed brand statement: Custom Security Solutions, summarizing their commitment to personalized, high-tech protection
