We make sure your business gets full local business visibility.
Optimizing your website and directory listings for local search terms is a crucial aspect of Local SEO. This includes incorporating relevant local keywords in your website’s content, meta tags, and title tags, as well as ensuring that your business’s name, address, and phone number (NAP) are accurate and consistent across all platforms. By doing so, you increase the chances of your business appearing at the top of search engine results when people in your local area search for products or services like yours.
Why Local SEO Matters
Reviews & Reputation
Reviews and reputation management are crucial components of Local SEO, as they significantly impact a customer’s decision-making process and can greatly influence a business’s online visibility. Positive reviews and a strong reputation can establish a business’s credibility and authority, making it more likely that customers will choose that business over competitors.
Bad online reviews can be devastating for a business. Just one 1-star review on Google could cause your company’s reputation to plummet overnight, and the effects of this type of negative publicity may linger indefinitely.
A bad online rating doesn’t just affect you short term; it hurts your brand in the long run too.
Monitoring & Responding
To maintain a positive reputation and optimize Local SEO, it’s essential to regularly monitor and respond to online reviews. Prompt and professional responses to negative reviews can demonstrate to potential customers that a business cares about their experience and is willing to address any issues that may arise. Additionally, actively seeking out reviews from satisfied customers and encouraging them to leave feedback on popular platforms such as Google, Yelp, and Facebook can help to build a strong reputation and improve Local SEO.
Get on the Map
Did you know that out of of all searches conducted, 30 percent of searchers click on the Map Pack? Our customers get more Map Pack clicks for the search queries that matter.
Getting on the map, specifically Google Maps, is important for Local SEO because it can greatly increase a business’s visibility in local search results. When people search for products or services in a specific area, Google Maps displays a map with relevant businesses in that area, known as the “Google Maps Pack” or “Google’s 3-Pack”. Being featured in this map pack can greatly increase the chances of a business being found by potential customers.
Additionally, being featured in the map pack can also increase a business’s online authority and credibility, as it shows that the business is a legitimate and well-established presence in the community. Furthermore, when a business appears in the map pack, it also allows for features such as directions, reviews, and photos to be displayed which can provide valuable information for potential customers and increase the chances of them visiting the business.
