Turn Hub Foot Traffic Into Customers
The Hub at East 149th Street and Third Avenue is one of the Bronx's oldest shopping districts. We help the businesses around it convert passing shoppers into regulars.

Marketing in Melrose
Getting found by customers in Melrose
Four streets meet at The Hub: East 149th Street, Third Avenue, Willis Avenue and Melrose Avenue. It has been a shopping destination for well over a century, and today the 2 and 5 trains at Third Avenue and 149th Street keep it crowded with shoppers and commuters. National chains sit beside discount stores, cell phone shops, optometrists, dentists and tax offices.
When a street is this busy, the businesses that do well are usually the ones that are easy to find twice: once on the sidewalk and once on a phone. We make sure your Google Business Profile has the exact entrance, your Spanish and English hours, photos that match the storefront and posts about current offers. Medical offices and immigration or injury law firms around The Hub also benefit from service pages that answer specific questions, since many visitors arrive with a problem they need solved that day.

Local knowledge
What makes Melrose different
A business district with a long history
The Third Avenue Business Improvement District was the first BID in the Bronx, and the area still draws shoppers from across the South Bronx. Taking part in district events and listing your business accurately in local directories adds trust signals Google uses alongside your reviews.
Same-day intent
People at The Hub often need something now: eyeglasses repaired, a tooth looked at, a document notarized, a lawyer to call after an accident. Click-to-call ads, open-now hours and a reply to every review help you win those decisions.
Metro-North and the north end
The Melrose Metro-North station near East 162nd Street links the neighborhood with the north Bronx and Westchester. Practices near Courtlandt and Melrose Avenues can mention it in directions so patients coming by train know how close the office is.
