Local SEO

What is local SEO?

Imagine you are a groom searching for a bride. What will you do? (presuming that it isn’t a love marriage). Enroll your name on matrimony websites, tell your friends and relatives about it, and give advertisements in the newspapers about it; right?

Now think for a moment. By doing all these actions you are trying to tell the world at large about your needs. In the digital industry, it is called ‘local SEO’. It is informing the local public that your business exists.

Secondly, if you find a bride then the potential bride will inquire from others about your details to be assured about the genuineness of the same.

This is because no matter what the groom’s parents tell you, you will trust the opinions of a third party to judge the groom.

The same happens with us when we list our business online. Rather than boasting about ourselves, when other sites quote our website as a reference then it is considered more trustworthy. In technical terms, it is called backlinks.

Just as in the example that we took earlier, the groom registered on various online matrimony directories, classifieds, and told about it to friends/relatives; similarly in Google, we need backlinks from multiple sources pointing to our website. For that we need to list our business on:

  • Business Listing sites
  • Profile Creation sites
  • Classified ads listing sites
  • Bookmarkiang Submission (Pages)
  • Bookmarking Submission (Blogs)
  • Video Submission sites
  • PPT Submission sites
  • Answer Posting sites

This is technically known as off-page SEO. We have covered more about it in our ‘off-page SEO page’.

Do you know that Google apps are preloaded on our mobiles? So the moment you connect your phone to the internet, Google knows everything about you.

If you run a business and don’t have a website then also if Google feels that your result is relevant (looking to the social media followings) it will show your social handles to the readers.

Why is local SEO the need for an hour?

Still not convinced why you need a local SEO? Here are some fascinating statistics. Local SEO is different from other SEO. It tries to show your business to the people who are searching for a ‘nearby’ shop.

Just getting your business listed on GMB won’t show your results to the prospects. Local SEO too has certain ranking factors like:

  • The location from where the person is searching
  • NAP citations (Name, Address, Phone Number)
  • Presence of Google My Business listing
  • Keywords used in Google My Business profile
  • The sentiment of online reviews
  • Star ratings are given by the clients
  • Keywords used in online reviews
  • Number of “check-ins” at that location
  • Shares on social media
  • Google Maps star rating for that business

Based on the above criteria, Google shows the best results to the visitors based on the relevance of the query. Google ranks the page based on:

  • The proximity of your business
  • Relevance of your business
  • The prominence of your brand image in the consumer’s mind.

Hence, if you want your business to be visible in the eyes of the visitors then you need to do local SEO. Local SEO can help you to rocket your sales.
