The short answer
Good SEO packages for small business are defined by what gets done each month, not by tier names: Google Business Profile upkeep, fixes to your site, new or improved pages for your services and areas, listing cleanup, review replies and a report on calls and leads. Compare by those tasks, ownership, and how easily you can leave.
Only if the task list is real. Many cheap packages are reports with little work behind them.
One focused on your Google profile, maps, listings and reviews, which is most of what a local business needs.
Long enough to see changes, a few months. Avoid long lock-ins.
To choose an SEO company, ask what they'll do each month, what they'll report, who owns the website and listings if you leave, and how they'll measure calls and leads rather than rankings alone.
