Every location shares one "Locations" page, so none of them show up in the map results for their own neighborhood.
Practice type
A website that treats every office as its own local listing, not a branch of a branch
A multi-location tax franchise website earns its keep when every address ranks for searches near it, which means each office needs its own page rather than a shared list.
Who this build is for
Multi-location tax franchises that need a website written in their own vocabulary rather than a generic tax-office template, with pages built around exactly how this kind of practice actually takes on a client.
The starting point
What usually goes wrong
01 02 Hours differ by office during the season, but the site shows one set of hours for everyone.
03 A caller reaches the wrong office because the phone number listed online routes to a call center rather than the nearest location.
04 Franchise-wide branding and local ownership are never distinguished, leaving each office looking interchangeable rather than locally run.

In their words
What practices say they got
Service scope and expectations for tax appointment intake
The time we spent on the tax appointment intake wording was time well spent. The page describes the process faithfully and leaves the judgment calls to a conversation with our team. Correcting the site's accidental promises is no longer part of our calls.
Craig GilmoreNew inquiries coordinator, Charity tax and gift aid advisoryTacoma, WAInquiry assignment and staff handover for tax appointment intake
We used to forward tax appointment intake emails around and hope somebody had replied. Ownership is visible now, and cover no longer requires reading someone's entire inbox. It removed a daily friction we had simply learned to live with.

We knew the tax appointment intake document was a problem; we had just never prioritized fixing it. The content is the same material, reorganized into headed sections that work on any screen. Callers have stopped apologizing for not being able to read it.

Answers
Questions from multi-location tax franchises
Can each office have its own hours during the season?
Yes. Office hours are a weekly detail update, not a revision, so each location's page can change independently as the season opens or closes at that address.
Why not just list every office on one page?
Because the addresses then compete with each other for the same local result instead of each ranking in its own neighborhood. One page per office, each with its own address, hours, map and local markup, is the single biggest change a multi-office firm can make.
Can each office have its own hours during the season?
Yes. Office hours are a weekly detail update rather than a revision, so each location changes independently as the season opens or closes at that address.
Can a caller reach the actual office rather than a central number?
Yes, if you want it that way. Each office page carries the number you nominate for that address, so a visitor who wanted the east side branch reaches the east side branch.
How do we balance franchise branding with local ownership?
The brand is consistent across the site and each office page carries what is genuinely local: the owner or manager, the team based there, the hours, and anything specific to that community. Interchangeable pages are the thing to avoid.
What happens when an office opens or closes for the season?
It is a weekly detail update. Send the date and the page, the hours and the map are updated inside the week without using one of your revisions.
Can we add a careers page per office?
Yes. Seasonal hiring is one of the most-searched things a franchise publishes, and a per-office careers page reaches people looking for work near them rather than near head office.
How many offices can one site carry?
There is no ceiling. Adding offices is ordinary work, and a batch of new office pages with their copy and photos counts as one revision rather than one per page.
Weighing this against a builder, a freelancer or an agency?
Ten comparison pages set a managed build beside GoHighLevel, WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, GoDaddy, hiring a freelancer and putting an agency on retainer. Each one names the cases where the other option is the better choice before it makes ours.
