The ultimate goal of any business is to make a profit and increase their ROI. With Local SEO your business can target customers increasing its traffic and sales, both locally and physically. One of the benefits of targeting local customers is, they have the opportunity of not only visiting your website online, but actually stopping by your physical location. There they can see what your business is about, what you have to offer, and create a connection with your company.
Using Local Search Engine Optimization will help your company reach its targeted audience; by placing your website higher up in search engine results when they search for anything relating to your business. With Local SEO your website will appear in search results when people in your geographic area search for related keywords you are competing for.
Local Search uses many techniques that help increase your websites traffic and conversion rates. One of the simplest, but most useful methods is to have a Google Business Listing for your website.
A Google Business Listing is a free business listing on Google with information, photos, and reviews about your business.
You may be asking yourself what’s so special about that.
Instead think about how many times Google is used every day, for searching anything ranging from “funny cat memes” to symptoms you are having, or “top doctors in Maryland”.
Google is the most used search engine in the world, so having your businesses listed on it is important. When you list and verify your business on their search engine you are giving your business and edge.
Now when anyone in the area searches for anything relating to your business your company will show in in the top results on maps, images, and search.
For example if you are a restaurant owner and a group of people are thinking about where to have lunch today, they go on Google and search for restaurants near me. The results show up and there is your business showcased by Google as a restaurant in their vicinity. Now, if you didn’t have a local listing your restaurant wouldn’t have showed up and you would have missed out on potential clients.
With your Google Business Listing you gained an opportunity to reach a new audience.
