What Is Local SEO And Why Does Your Business Need It
When someone searches for a plumber, a florist or a taxi near them, Google shows a map and a short list of local businesses. Local SEO is the work that helps your business appear in that list.
It starts with your Google Business Profile. Your name, address, phone number, opening hours and photos all need to be correct and complete. Then your details need to match across other sites, such as directories and review sites. These are called business citations.
Your website matters too. Pages that clearly say what you do and where you do it help Google understand who to show you to. Reviews from real customers also make a difference, both to Google and to the people reading them.
Local SEO is not a quick fix. It builds over time. If most of your customers come from your area, it is one of the best places to put your marketing effort. Want to know where you stand? Give us a call and we will take a look.
