How to Outrank Your Competitors in Google (Without Playing Fair)

Let’s face it—your competitors want the same customers you do. And in today’s digital world, that battle starts on Google.

At Orbital Marketing Agency, we help businesses in Carmel, Mahopac, Cold Spring, and Westchester County not just improve their SEO—but strategically outrank the competition by showing up before and above them across the search results page.

Here’s how to do it—and how we can show you in your free full custom website demo.


🚀 Hijack Search Visibility by Owning the Space Above the Organic Listings

You don’t have to be #1 in organic results to be #1 on the page. Google’s search results include images, videos, local map packs, paid ads, and featured snippets—and your competitors probably aren’t using all of them.

Here’s how to take over the search real estate before your competitors can.

🖼 Optimize for Google Image & Video Carousels


Google often displays image or video carousels above organic search listings.
Why this matters:
  • Media SEO is less competitive than text-based SEO
  • Product images, service photos, and branded videos show up faster in search
  • Users often click visual content before scrolling to text

In your free demo, we’ll show how to name, tag, and structure your images and videos so they get indexed and ranked properly.


📍 Dominate the Local Map Pack with Google Business Profile

When someone searches “web designer in Carmel NY” or “marketing agency Mahopac,” the map listings usually appear first.

Here’s how to claim that spot:
  • Fully optimize your Google Business Profile
  • Include high-quality reviews, service descriptions, and fresh posts
  • Keep consistent business data across all listings

We’ll preview a fully optimized Google Business listing as part of your demo experience—so you can see exactly what’s missing from yours.


💸 Run Targeted Paid Search Ads (Even on Competitor Keywords)

Google Ads puts you at the very top of search results—even above your competitor’s organic listing.
Smart ways to use Paid Search:
  • Bid on your competitor’s brand name
  • Use high-converting copy to divert attention
  • Track ROI and optimize quickly with A/B tests

We’ll include a mock Google Ads campaign structure in your demo if you're exploring PPC in Westchester or Putnam County.


🏆 Rank on High-Traffic Third-Party Sites


Often, the top result for your industry isn’t a local business—it’s a directory like Yelp, Thumbtack, or Angi.
Here’s how to beat competitors on those platforms:
  • Get more 5-star reviews
  • Optimize your profiles with SEO keywords
  • Add photos, FAQs, and updated contact info

Additionally, pitch your business to be featured in local blogs, business roundups, or industry-specific articles.


🧠 Bonus Tip: Get in Google's Knowledge Panel & Snippets


Want your business to appear in the right-hand sidebar or voice search results?
Try this:
  • Create a Wikipedia-style About page with structured data
  • Use FAQ sections and How-To lists to earn featured snippets
  • Add schema markup to help Google understand your content

We build all of this into your free website demo—including how to structure content for snippets.
