Traditional SEO strategies focus on optimizing for keywords and keyword phrases. Local SEO strategies focus on optimizing for keywords and keyword phrases – and location queries. To place in search queries, a business website needs both types.
Local SEO focuses on optimizing a business’s online presence to attract more business from relevant local searches. These searches occur on Google and other search engines. It differs from regular SEO in its emphasis on local search results and listings, such as Google My Business.
Online reviews significantly impact Local SEO as they provide social proof and influence your business’s visibility in search results. Positive reviews can improve your business’s local search ranking and encourage more customers to choose your service or product.
Local citations are mentions of your business’s name, address, and phone number on other websites. They are crucial for Local SEO as they help verify your business’s legitimacy and improve your local search rankings.
Google My Business (GMB) is a critical tool for Local SEO as it allows businesses to appear in local search results and Google Maps. A well-optimized GMB profile provides essential information about your business, including location, hours, and services, directly to potential local customers.
Keywords remain a vital part of Local SEO. Including location-based keywords in your website’s content helps in appearing in search results for those specific local queries.
With the increasing use of smartphones for local searches, mobile optimization is crucial. A mobile-friendly website enhances user experience and is favored in Google’s local search rankings.
Search engine optimization is a long-term strategy. For your strategy to be successful, you must implement a holistic SEO strategy, including both on-page and off-page optimization. Some efforts will pay off in the short term after implementation. Typical examples are changing meta titles and headings or improving the content on a few pages.
Other efforts, such as implementing Schema markup on pages, creating a substantial volume of informative content, building authoritative links, or attracting positive reviews, take time and pay off in the long term.
No single thing will revolutionize the performance of your SEO strategy. All the elements work together, and it is the combination of all the signals Google reads that will make the needle move forward for you. Your best bet is to base your content strategy on the right keywords, create consistent content, optimize for local and technical SEO, and be ready to pivot your strategy as necessary based on performance.
