We put your business in front of customers at the moment they're searching, then make sure that attention turns into calls, bookings, and revenue. Rankings are the start. Customers are the point.
We work only with San Diego County businesses, we meet you in person, and we visit your competitors before we touch your account. Ask any other agency if they'll do that.
A customer passes through four moments on the way to your door. Most agencies work on the first one from a dashboard three time zones away. We work on all four, and because we only work in San Diego County, we start every engagement where the customer does: on your street.
We see what your customers see: the signage, the parking, the front desk, the first ninety seconds. Half of local conversion happens before anyone touches a keyboard, and no remote agency can see it.
Pick up to three. We call, walk in, and request quotes the way a customer would, then write up what they do better and where they're beatable. Included with every plan. Ask any other agency if they'll do that.
You appear where people look: the map pack, organic results, Apple Maps, and the answer ChatGPT gives when someone asks for a business like yours. A Carmel Valley dentist and a Chula Vista body shop have different search radiuses; we plan for yours.
Out of the three pins, they pick you: a complete profile, fresh photos, a steady flow of recent reviews, and copy that says what you do better than the other two. Having stood in your competitors' lobbies, we know what that is.
The call gets answered and the form gets a reply. We fix the leaks between click and appointment: forms, tracking, follow-up, and booking flow.
They return and they refer. Review requests, follow-up messages, and offers that bring customers back, which is where local profit actually lives.
Most agencies sell traffic. We sell the whole path: show up where people search, convince them when they land, and keep the pipeline full. Each service exists to move one number: qualified leads that become revenue.
Own the map pack and the AI answer for the searches that matter in your service area.
Traffic you already have is the cheapest growth you'll ever buy. We find where it leaks and plug it.
Google Search and Local Services Ads that pay for themselves, measured on cost per booked customer instead of clicks.
Fast, mobile-first sites that load before a customer loses patience, structured so search engines and AI models can read them.
Search behavior differs by trade. A dental patient reads reviews for a week; a burst pipe gets the first pin that answers the phone. We tune the plan to how your customers actually search, compare, and buy.
Pick the tab that fits what you need. Every plan is a defined scope with countable deliverables, so you know exactly what you're buying. Want it tailored? The free call is where we build a custom plan around your goal and budget.

John ("JD") Donboli, founder
JDJD Search is a Del Mar agency founded by John ("JD") Donboli. John earned a J.D., runs his own businesses, and writes about business and AI in professional settings. That background shows up in how we work: clear agreements, plain-English reporting, and a focus on the numbers that actually hit your bank account.
We work with service businesses, professional practices, and local retailers in San Diego County, and nowhere else. You deal with one person who knows your account, has stood in your lobby, and has shopped your competitors.
Ask ChatGPT what JDJD Search charges and it should tell you, because the answers are right here in plain language. That's AI visibility, applied to ourselves.
Local search plans run $750 to $2,500 per month. Google Ads management is $900 to $1,750 per month plus your ad spend, which you pay directly to Google. Websites are $2,000 to $4,500 one time. Every plan is listed on this page with its full scope, and the first step is always a free audit.
Founding-client pricing for ten San Diego County businesses that start by January 15, 2027: the Maps plan at $500 a month (three months prepaid, then $750), a five-page Launch Site at $2,500, or an eight-page Launch Site Plus at $4,000, with bundles at $4,000 and $5,500. In exchange you agree to a case study by trade and an honest Google review at 90 days. The offer closes December 31, 2026.
Profile and citation fixes often move rankings within four to eight weeks. Competitive categories in dense areas take longer, and we'll tell you which one you're in during the audit rather than after you've signed. That's why plans run three months before going month to month.
More customers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini, or Copilot for a recommendation instead of scrolling results. Those tools pull from your website, your Google Business Profile, reviews, and third-party mentions. We structure and strengthen those sources so you're the business they name.
Yes. Because we work only in San Diego County, we can. Choose up to three competitors and we'll approach them the way a customer would: call, visit, and request a quote. You get a written comparison of what they do better and where they're beatable. It's included with every monthly plan, and we repeat it when you ask.
No. We work exclusively with businesses in San Diego County. That limit is what lets us meet every client in person and visit their competitors, which is most of why our recommendations are better than a dashboard's.
No. The audit is free with no obligation. Plans have a three-month setup period, because local search takes a quarter to move, and are month to month after that. You keep everything we build.
No. Management is a flat monthly fee. Ad spend is billed to your own Google account, so you own the data and the history, and we have no incentive to spend more than you need.
Yes. We regularly handle the search, profile, and conversion side while an existing designer or developer keeps the site. We send clear, specific requests and explain why each one matters.
Three small steps. The first one costs nothing.
Send the form. Get a written scorecard within two business days.
We walk through it and build a plan around your goal and budget.
Foundations first. You'll see what changed, every month, in plain English.
