What is the Difference Between SEO and Local SEO?
š The main difference between general organic SEO and local SEO is thatĀ local SEO has a geographical component. Ā
š If a user searches for an industry/service/product Ā + location, the search engine ā whether Google, Bing, Yahoo or even Facebook ā knows that the search has local intent. And all search engines want is to give the user exactly what theyāre searching for. A local business that has implemented local SEO specifically is almost always going to show up ahead of one that has not.
Why Do We Need Local SEO?
š AĀ local SEO strategy is essential for small,Ā localĀ businesses.Ā SEO standsĀ forĀ search engine optimization and is important to increase traffic, attract customers, and make your business known.
What are Local Citations?
š Do you remember the Yellow Pages? That big thick book that used to be delivered to homes and businesses in countries all over the world? They are still around, but in much smaller numbers, and most people either throw them out if they doĀ receive one (or use it as a doorstop or something similar)Ā Ā
š Why? Because people use the web to find what they are looking for these days. And the web uses Local SEO citations to help deliver that information to them. In a nutshell, aĀ local SEO citation or local business citationĀ (the two are essentially the same thing) is any listing that contains (at a minimum)Ā a businessā name, address and phone number.Ā Google and other search engines rely heavily on what are known asĀ citation sites to find local businesses to include in their results. Ā
š Directories and citation sites go out and scrape business information from the webĀ āĀ in mass quantities. They then pull business info into their database and share it with the world.Ā Google My Business, Yelp, Foursquare, Trustpilot, Merchant Circle, CitySearch āĀ theyāre all examples of citation sites. And those are just a few of the big ones; there are many more.
How Many Searches on Google are Local?
š That, depends, of course, upon where your business is located. But, in very general terms, as of JulyĀ 2022,Ā 69% of all searches on Google are seeking local informationĀ (and thatās according to Big G themselves) Thatās way over half, another indication of just how important local SEO is.
What Do Reputable Local SEO Agencies Do Differently?
š Follow āwhite hatā tactics approved byĀ search engine webmaster guidelines,Ā so your listing isnāt in danger of disappearing from results altogether.
Do I Really Need to Hire Someone to Do My Local SEO?
š If learning about SEO and local SEO makes your head spin, outsource it. You pay an accountant to handle your books, so pay a local SEO agency London to handle that side of your business.
How Long Do I Need Local SEO Services For?
š SEO -and local SEO ā is an ongoing process. Search engines change their algorithms all the time ā Google makes up to 80 small changes a week ā and so keeping up is a must. You may need fewer hours though, as time goes on and your SERPs positioning improves.
Can You Do Local SEO Without a Website?
š Not nearlyĀ as well, though it is possible to create and claim a Google My Business page for free. Those can show up in the map 3-pack if the competition isnāt too fierce for your local industry,Ā but itās a very difficult feat to pull off.Ā
Does Google Penalize Local Websites That Are Not Mobile Friendly?
š Websites that are not mobile-friendly tend to not rank as well on Google, especially when the search is from a mobile device. With over 50% of local searches from mobile, it is bad for your site if it offers users a poor mobile experience.Ā Google ranks websites that offer great mobile experiences the highest.
What is NAP?
š Name, Address and Phone (NAP) accuracy is critical for local businesses. Your NAP needs to be correct and consistent not only throughout your website but also anywhere it appears throughout the entire Internet.
How Do Businesses Add Themselves to Google Maps?
š Having strong Google reviews and completing your Google My Business listingĀ āĀ adding photos and videos and selecting correct categoriesĀ āĀ improve your businessā chances of showing up on Google Maps.
What is Google Maps Optimisation?
š Something else that people just donāt use anymore is an atlas. Or an A-Z (remember those?) Instead, they often rely on their trusty cell phone to find things and find their way of using Google Maps. There is a Google Maps app installed by default on most smartphones, and Google Maps data is also used to power hugely popular GPS apps like Waze.
š And on Google Maps, if a business has a Google Listing,Ā people will find that business as they near it. Or look it up. To see this in action right now head to Google Maps for a minute. Do a directional search for a location near your business.Ā
š See those buttons are offering you the chance to look up restaurants, bars, cafes, and almost any other kind of business located in the area? This is where you want YOUR business to appear, which is what Google Maps Optimisation and Google Maps Marketing as executed by a local SEO agency London sets out to achieve.
