Local SEO
Local Search Engine Optimization (Local SEO) is the process of optimizing your digital presence to ensure your business appears prominently in local search results, especially when customers nearby are searching for the products or services you offer.
Local SEO success is a blend of technical optimizations, content relevance, managing local listings (including Google Search, Google Maps, Bing Places, Yelp, Yellow Pages, and other local business directories), curating reviews and reputation signals, and maintaining on-site performance to help you reach more customers right when they need you.
When done right, Local SEO increases local search visibility, drives qualified, nearby traffic, boosts calls and local store visits, and improves customer trust in your business through reviews and ratings.
