If you want a local audience to find your business you need to understand local SEO and how important it is. Local SEO is a branch of Search Engine Optimization that focuses on optimizing a website to be found in local search results.

Almost everyone knows what SEO or Search Engine Optimized content is; it is content that is specifically tailored to help you achieve higher rankings in the search results from search engines, most notably Google. What you may not realize is that SEO tailored content is not necessarily going to have the same impact on local search engine results as it would on a broader search, because local results are going to be based on different factors.

    Local Businesses Need Local SEO

    A local search is going to combine the same types of algorithms used in a broader search with hallmarks of a local business. What are those hallmarks of a local business? A local phone number and a local address are two of the big indicators that help demonstrate that your business is a local one. Therefore, your internet brand needs to feature those two elements, to consistently associate you with your targeted local area. Do you serve a larger area with several distinct local areas contained within it? One of the tricky things about Local Search Engine Optimization or LSEO is that the physical area that is considered local can vary tremendously depending on your location. For example, the Houston metropolitan area is huge and contains a number of smaller municipalities within it. It is also associated with three distinct area codes.

    A local search in the Houston area is, by default, going to contain a greater number of responses, at a greater distance, than a search in a smaller metropolitan area. If you serve a large metropolitan area, what smaller regions in that area do you most want to target and do you have phone and/or address information you can use to make your business local to that area?

Joe and the Shoreline team could not have done a better job with my website. The number of clients and friends who tell me on a daily basis how much they like my website is a testament to this fact! They far exceeded all of my expectations, and their customer service is beyond belief.. Often times, I would get replies to my email questions within minutes! I rarely recommend companies to my friends, but I would recommend Joe and Shoreline Media any day of the week. Class people, highest quality product/service, and reliable. Cant beat that as far as I’m concerned .

“This is my second Testimonial on Joe Sernio and Web Solutions NJ. Joe was recommended to me by a friend. When I met Joe, I was truly in a dilemma. The web designer I was using just disappeared into thin air and left me in a bind! Joe came to my rescue. Not only was he extremely helpful and very knowledgeable, but he understood my needs and worked with me regarding costs. He made several suggestions, all of which made a great deal of difference to the look of the site and the functionality! The website is so professional looking now and easy for me to access, make changes and do updates! Joe was truly a God send. I am thrilled with the new website and highly recommend Joe as he is reliable and conscientious!”

Local SEO Strategies

The Nest Local SEO Strategy

The Importance of Local SEO

Local search results are also more likely to examine your entire internet presence to help evaluate where your business should rank in local search results. What this means is that social media like Facebook can play a significant role in your local search results. It also means that search-engine specific forms of marketing, like Google + profiles, can make a real meaningful difference in your rankings. It is also important to ensure that your internet presence is consistent, because apparent conflicts across different forms of web-based media can actually drive down your rankings.

At Shoreline Media, we understand that for most businesses, Local Search Engine Optimization or LSEO is even more critical than SEO. We will work with your existing web-presence to help you improve local search result rankings, as well as suggest practical things you can do to get organic improvement in your search results.

LSEO | Local Search Engine Optimization Best Practices

On the surface, having Local Search Engine Results or a LSEO web presence would be as easy as having a SEO website that included the location of your business. It would seem like the higher your overall ranking, the higher your local search ranking, because any non-local businesses that were ranked higher than you would be eliminated from the results. However, the LSEO algorithms that the big search engines use are not as simple as SEO – non local businesses = LSEO. Instead, they involve a more complicated approach that can actually result in improperly represented local businesses losing relative ranking compared to other local businesses when a search is run in a local area. This results in lost customers and can devalue even a really well-run website. Here are Shoreline Media’s 5 best practices for businesses looking for Local Search Engine Optimization or LSEO web-content:

1. Have a local phone number and address. If you are advertising as a local business, you need to have a phone number with an area code that matches your local area and is associated with a local address.

2. Keep in mind that local search results are going to have a relatively small search radius, which depends on the size and business saturation of your local area. If you are business that serves a number of local areas, you may need to establish multiple physical addresses or have multiple phone numbers, depending on things such as area codes.

3. Make sure your web presence is consistent. You can have multiple local phone numbers and addresses for different local branches of your businesses, but the same phone number and address should always be matched with one another and any outdated or conflicting information should be deleted.

4. Take advantage of Social Media and Social Media Management. Local search results look at your overall web presence and it can much easier to get traffic on sites like Facebook than it can be to stand-alone websites. Use social media, update it regularly, and make sure the information on it matches information on your website and has local contact information for your business.

The Best Local SEO Strategy

The best local SEO strategy involves several key tactics aimed at improving your online visibility in the local search results. Here are some of the most effective local SEO strategies:

Optimize Your Website: Make sure your website is optimized for local search by including your business name, address, and phone number (NAP) on all pages, creating location-specific landing pages and using schema markup.

Optimize Your GMB Listing: This is one of the most important steps in local SEO. Claiming and optimizing your Google My Business listing will help your business show up in the local pack and improve your visibility in Google Maps.

Get Listing On Local Directories: Listing your business in local directories like Yelp, Yellow Pages, and Foursquare can help improve your local search rankings and increase your online visibility.

Generate Reviews: Positive reviews on Google My Business and other review sites can help improve your local search rankings and attract more customers.

Use Local Search Terms & Keywords: Use location-specific keywords throughout your website, including in your content, meta tags, and URLs.

Build Local Links & Backlinks: Building links from local websites and directories can help improve your local search rankings.

Engage On Social Media: Social media can help increase your online visibility and attract more local customers. Share content and engage with your followers on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Online Reputation & Citation Building: Monitor your online reputation and respond to any negative reviews or comments promptly and professionally.

By implementing these local SEO strategies, you can improve your online visibility and attract more local customers to your local business. For businesses that may focus on larger areas please read more on our Enhanced SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Services.
