The three results above the ads cost nothing per click
Every "plumber altoona pa" search shows a map with three local businesses before most of the ads get seen. Those three spots are decided by Google's local ranking, not by bids. A plumber sitting in that box takes clicks and calls from all 590 monthly searches without paying $7.83 apiece for them.
The catch: map results change block by block. You can hold the top spot beside your shop and be invisible three miles away, where the searcher picks a competitor. Most owners have never seen their own coverage.
