Local SEO is a powerful tool for businesses. Instead of wasting time casting a wide net, you should be looking at where your customers are coming from or where they are more likely to search for your products and services. If your business has a physical location or brick and mortar stores, you can’t afford to neglect local SEO.
97% of search engine users have searched online to find a local business, with nearly a third doing so at least once a week. With the right local SEO strategy, you can dominate your niche in the local search results so that when your customer is looking to buy, your name is right there at the top.
Nearly half of ALL searches on Google are looking for local information and services. Google wants to show its users the most relevant information, which means that it often will display content that is in the user’s immediate vicinity and prioritise local businesses that meet the searcher’s needs.
You’ve probably seen the short list of businesses that appear at the top of the list — with the right strategy, that could be you!
Investing in a sound local SEO strategy means that Google will start to associate your business with a certain area and will boost you up in the rankings whenever someone searches for your particular product or service within that location. Many searches also utilise ‘local intent’, meaning that users specify that they only want results in a certain location; you can utilise this to skyrocket your sales.
If you are a brick and mortar business or provide services in certain areas or suburbs, you should be building up your profile in those locales through smartly-targeted SEO. We can help.
