Rijeka and Kvarner
A marketing agency in Rijeka for local businesses.
I run local SEO, ads and websites for trades, salons and repair shops in Rijeka and the Primorje-Gorski Kotar county, so customers find you on Google when they need your service.
A marketing agency from Rijeka, for all of Kvarner.
VRH Agency works from Rijeka. Most of my clients are small businesses whose customers come from the same city: plumbers, car mechanics, hairdressers, physiotherapists and tradespeople whose phone rings when people find them on Google.
When someone in Rijeka types "plumber" or "hairdresser Zamet", Google first shows a map with three businesses. That is where the call is decided, so my work is about making your business one of those three. I also run Google and Meta ads, build websites and work on getting AI tools such as ChatGPT to mention you.
As a marketing agency from Rijeka I work in a market I know first hand. I know how far the city stretches along the coast, where customers from Kastav and Viškovo come from and how searches change when visitors arrive in Kvarner for the summer.
Rijeka stretches along the whole coast, and Google sees that.
Google builds the map for each customer based on where they are. A business that ranks first for someone in Sušak can be tenth for a customer in Kantrida, because the neighbourhoods are far apart and separated by hills.
That is why I measure your position from 130 points across the city and work on making you visible in every part of Rijeka your customers come from, from the centre to the surrounding municipalities.

A Rijeka case
A Rijeka plumber: from 12 of 130 points to 1st place in 79 days.
My client, a plumbing business, works in Rijeka and across the Primorje-Gorski Kotar county. When we started, the business appeared in the top three on only 12 of 130 measuring points across the city.
After 79 days it ranked first in central Rijeka, and in the first month it had 35% more calls, without spending a single euro on ads.
- points in the top 3 at the start
- 12/130
- place in the city centre
- 1st
- days to first place
- 79
- more calls in the first month
- +35%
For years I paid for ads and always worried whether there would be work next month. Since we reached the top of Google that worry is gone, customers come on their own.
I was sceptical at first, but after the first 90 days I noticed more enquiries and more calls. Since then it has only got better and I have more work than ever.

Frequently asked questions.
If your question is not here, ask me directly on a free call.
Where is your office?
The office is near Rijeka. I do most of the work online and stay in touch by phone, email or video call, whichever suits you.
Do you work with businesses outside Rijeka, say in Opatija or on Krk?
Yes. I cover the whole Primorje-Gorski Kotar county, from Kastav and Opatija to Crikvenica and the islands, and I also have clients in Zagreb, Split and other cities. I measure the ranking for each location separately.
How quickly will I see movement on Google Maps?
The first changes usually show within the first few weeks. The goal is the top three results within 90 days, and a plumber from Rijeka reached first place in 79 days.
Do you take on several businesses from the same industry in Rijeka?
While I work with you, I do not take on a direct competitor from your industry in the same city. I cannot promise the same result to two businesses in the same industry, so in Rijeka I work only for you.
Do I need a website to rank at the top of Google Maps?
No, because your position on the map depends mainly on your Google Business Profile. If you want a site, I also build websites for Rijeka businesses, linked to the profile from day one.
How much does working with a marketing agency in Rijeka cost?
The price depends on the service, your industry and how strong the competition is in your part of the city. That is why the first step is a free 30 minute call, after which you get a concrete offer with no obligation.
