What types of businesses need Local SEO?

Any business that gets some or all of its customers or clients locally should consider local SEO. If you have a physical address in a city, you should be doing local SEO for that location.

Why do you need to do local SEO!

Is your business getting new clients from your website? You can have a first class website but if you don’t have a SEO program then you are probably missing out on getting new business from search results. Your competitors are using SEO to attract new business through their websites; if you want to have a share of this business then you need to have a SEO program for your website. The first step in your website SEO program is to start with a local SEO program. This begins with setting up local places accounts with Google, Yahoo and Bing. In conjunction with the Google places account, a Google+ account should be created as both accounts are linked together by Google. Google+ is an excellent location to collect reviews of your business from your customers.

The next step in your local SEO program is to submit your business to the top 30 business directories; this is known as creating citations. It is important how all of these citations for local places accounts and business directories are configured so that the best possible search results can be obtained.
