Elkins Park is fifteen miles down Route 611 from our Montgomeryville office, the center of Cheltenham Township on the Philadelphia line, with Old York Road running through it and the city a block away. We have run campaigns for practices along Old York Road and businesses in the township’s villages.
By SEO Locale, in-house since 2015 and based just outside Philadelphia.
Old York Road holds the medical offices, the practices and the services from the city line to Jenkintown; the train station and Montgomery Avenue hold the restaurants and shops; and Wyncote, Melrose Park, Cheltenham Village and Glenside are the villages whose residents search by name. Each is a different result page, and we map them before writing.
Elkins Park searches overlap with Jenkintown, Glenside, Wyncote and Philadelphia’s East Oak Lane and Mount Airy, and a customer could be from any of them. The profile, the categories and the service areas are set so you show up across Cheltenham and the edge of the city, and every review gets a reply.
SEOApp, the rank tracker we built, checks every keyword each week, and the monthly report puts the rankings next to the calls and forms from your own analytics. Nothing is a screenshot you have to take on faith.
Service pages and posts that name Old York Road, the villages, the township and the city neighborhoods next door. A specialist on Old York Road and a contractor covering Cheltenham and Abington need different pages, and the content says where you are and who you serve.
Real positions from SEOApp, the rank tracker we built, checked Nov 5, 2026. Places and anything that could name a client are blanked. See the Scoreboard.
Elkins Park is the oldest suburb in the county, built on the Gilded Age estates along Old York Road, with the Frank Lloyd Wright synagogue, the train to Center City in twenty minutes and one of the most diverse townships in the region. Old York Road is a medical and professional corridor from the city line to Jenkintown, and the villages of Cheltenham hold the restaurants, shops and services that serve residents who search for everything.
Our office is fifteen miles away in Montgomeryville. We have done kickoffs in practices on Old York Road and reviewed Google Business Profiles by the station. We know which searches an Elkins Park business wins in the township, which ones put it against Jenkintown and the city, and we build the plan around that.
Elkins Park’s businesses live along Old York Road and Church Road, around the train station and Montgomery Avenue, and in Wyncote, Melrose Park, Cheltenham Village and the neighborhoods of the township. A cardiology practice on Old York Road and a cafe by the station are both “Elkins Park” to a searcher, and both are found in the map pack before anywhere else.
Which is why the plan opens with local SEO and Google Business Profile: the listing, the reviews, the service areas and the pages that back them up. From there, paid ads for the searches worth buying now and a site built to turn the visit into a call.
Elkins Park and Cheltenham Township sit on the Philadelphia line, and their customers come from East Oak Lane, Mount Airy and Germantown as much as from Wyncote and Glenside. A business on Old York Road competes with city practices and suburban ones on the same result page, and the plan has to say which side it serves.

SEO Locale has been handling the marketing for our company, Sector Bay Laundry, for about 6 months. We moved on from another company, and the work ethic and responsiveness have been a night and day difference. I can't point out one specific person because the entire team as…
SEO Locale has been great in every way! Very responsive and certainly willing and able to help in anything related to our site, seo and etc. You will not be disappointed, they are a great team to add as a vendor for all businesses.
Amazing team. SEO Locale has helped transform our digital presence and continues to deliver real, measurable results. They’re responsive, collaborative, and genuinely care about our growth. Highly recommend for anyone looking to level up their marketing.
SEO Locale has been incredible to work with. We had been using another company before them, and the results were very poor so partnering with SEO Locale was a breath of fresh air. From day one the difference in communication, professionalism, and results was obvious. Nick and…
We’ve been working with SEO Locale for over a year now, and the impact has been great. They took the time to understand our niche in exotic car exhausts and built an SEO strategy that fits our brand perfectly. We’ve seen stronger organic traffic, better keyword rankings, and…
I had a really good impression of Nick and the team but unfortunately they significantly underdelivered on what was promised. With two days left after our first month all we had received was a list of keywords and a few articles that were almost certainly AI generated, about 20%…
If yours is not here, call and ask; the answer will be just as direct.
The village your customers type, with the others covered. Residents of Cheltenham search by village, so a practice in Elkins Park leads with Elkins Park, names Wyncote, Melrose Park and Glenside on service-area pages, and puts Cheltenham in the profile and the copy. The audit shows the split for your category.
In the organic results, yes, with a page written for the city neighborhoods you serve; in the map pack, only near the line, because Google ranks the pack by distance. A practice on Old York Road already shows in East Oak Lane and Mount Airy searches, and the plan builds the pages and tracks the keywords for the neighborhoods further in.
Three ways. Rankings are checked every week in SEOApp, our own tracker, and you can log in and look. Calls and forms are counted from your own analytics, not ours. And the strategist reviews both with you every month and says plainly what is working and what is not.
Then you stop, with nothing to break. Every agreement is month to month. The plan is explained before you pay for it, and you can stop when the work stops being worth it.
The team behind the plan for Elkins Park, on how a campaign is built, checked and reported every month.

We serve the county from our Montgomery County SEO page and the neighbors from Jenkintown, Abington and the city from our Philadelphia homepage. Elkins Park gets its own because a township on the city line draws searches from both sides, and a plan has to know which side each customer is on.
What you are buying is the same thing every client buys: an in-house team, a rank tracker we built, a report each month from your own analytics, and the freedom to leave any month. The strategist on your account, the writer and the developer all sit in our Montgomeryville office, fifteen miles up 611. Up the road, Glenside has its own page as well.
The free audit, reviewed by a person, comes first. It covers where you sit in the Elkins Park map pack and the organic results on both sides of the line, who sits above you, what their sites and profiles have that yours does not, and the technical issues holding the site back. Then a proposal with a price built for your situation, never a package.
Elkins Park businesses we hear from most are medical, dental and specialty practices on Old York Road, restaurants and shops by the station, home services companies covering Cheltenham, and the law, accounting and financial offices that serve the township. If that is you, the audit is the right first step. If you are not sure SEO is the right spend yet, call and ask; we will say so if it is not.
Most Elkins Park customers never get past the map, so Local SEO and Google Business Profile come first. For the searches worth buying now, paid advertising runs alongside, and web design makes sure the visit turns into a call.
