Our Local SEO Approach

1. Technical SEO – One of the largest pieces missing from most local business websites is sound Technical SEO for the modern-era. That includes things such as schema.org, page load speed management, fixing indexing issues, and fixing errors identified in Google Search Console.

2. Optimized Marketing Copy – We focus on creating marketing copy for your landing pages and the appropriate landing pages for your organic search strategy. Most small businesses often fail to even create one landing page for their potential customers or write effective and SEO optimized marketing copy to help sell their products or services.

3. Local-Focused Link Building – We want to get every relevant local website to link to our clients possible. There are often overlooked opportunties to gain inbound links from local government offices, schools, non-profits, news and media, and other local businesses.

4. Community Spam Watch – Our team constantly reviews your local community to find spammers and scammers lurking on mapping systems like Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Bing Maps. These spam business profiles are often created to funnel website traffic and phone calls to overseas scammers who either sell the leads back to businesses in your community or worse scam your neighbor and potential customers. We work to remove these spammers which often can help lead to increased rankings for your local business.

5. Nationally-Focused Link Building – Sometimes to gain great links you have to create content that captures the attention of people across the country and the national media. Local news media are overworked and understaffed and since national stories gain more traffic they tend to focus more on those and less on local stories. We identify ways to capture the national attention and get your local business great links.

6. Listings Management – We build, fix, and monitor your businesses Name, Address, and Phone Number on business listing sites across the web. These listings can help you improve in the rankings on mapping systems such as Google Maps and in the 3-pack inserted into search results.

7. Reviews Management – Our team helps you understand ways to gain more reviews of your business, how to covnince customers to use keywords in their reviews, and helps you fight against fake or fraudulent reviews on mapping systems.

8. Lead Generation Mangement – We help you implement and track contact forms ensuring they work properly. Our team knows how to fight those spammers attacking your forms to reduce spam to a minimum or eliminate it completely. We thoroughly test your forms on a frequent basis to ensure leads are always coming through so you can focus on your business.

9. Local SEO Dashboard – We give you access to a Local SEO Dashboard that shows your rankings on Google, Google Maps, and Bing for various keywords with daily updates.

With our local search engine optimization services you can rest in confidence knowing that you’ve hired the best of the best. Our expertise and efforts will help your business grow in your local market by achieving higher rankings for valuable keywords in search engines, map platforms, and local business directory websites.

Questions To Ask Your Local SEO Agency

Are you looking at other Local SEO agencies or working with one currently? Here are some questions you as a business owner or marketer should ask to help you better understand the services you’ll be / are currently getting.

Google Maps Listing Spam – We did the original research in 2018 that proved how easily scammers and spammers could create fake business listings and artifically inflate their rankings on Google Maps and in the Finder 3-Pack. Unfortunately, this is still a major problem that local small businesses have to deal with. Your agency must have a plan to report and tackle the spammers in your region. Not only will this aid your rankings, but it will also help your local community avoid scams from overseas operators.
Keyword Spam – Spammers have found a way to send junk keyword data that looks like it is coming from Google Organic in your Google Analytics. Your agency might be reporting spammy keyword data in your reports. This could be an honest mistake, asking them might help. Most of this was recently taken care of by Google Analytics who claims to filter out bot data automatically now. Question to Ask: Are you filtering out spam keywords in my Organic traffic reports?
Paid links are still bad – I’ve seen dozens of local businesses fall prey to this time and time again. If your agency is asking you for extra money to pay for a link, you might want to refuse them at first. There is a very high probability that Google will penalize you. They might be buying you a directory listing, native advertising, a charity sponsorship, or something else that could be very beneficial or socially good. It’s important that you ask them to disclose the purpose and if they think Google would consider it paying for a link.Question to Ask: Are you purchasing links for my site? If so, do you think they will hurt the website in the future?
Private link networks are really bad – You’ll probably be aware if your agency is getting you these. These links usually appear on pages with file names such as “resources.html” or “list.html” or even “links.htm”. Private link networks are designed to trick Google and other search engines into thinking your website is more authoritative on a subject than it otherwise would be. Google has unleashed quite a bit of updates over the past few years which will penalize your site (or algorithmically demote it to use the correct vernacular) and make getting traffic from Google very difficult.Question to Ask: Are the links you’re getting me from a Private Link or Private Blog network?
Getting directory listings each month isn’t SEO – There are agencies which consider simply submitting your business manually to a few directories each month is SEO. While this will help in the long-term, it will take a lot more time than it should. Instead use one of the various tools designed to distribute your NAP listings to directory websites for a small monthly fee to handle a large majority of this work so you can focus your SEO work elsewhere and see results faster.Question to Ask: Is there a way to get these local business directories done quicker so we can do other SEO things?
Adding blog posts is not automatic SEO – I’ve seen this complaint frequently as well, a business will have paid an agency to blog once a month and a year later nothing has changed. If the blog posts are not compelling enough to cut through the noise in today’s world and do not match up to keywords you wouldn’t be able to get otherwise then they probably aren’t helping your SEO too much. Instead focus on writing about subjects that your audience really cares about or that will attract new linking websites to you.Question to Ask: How are these blog posts helping our SEO? Are they helping attract traffic our other pages can’t? Are they getting us new links? If so, what kind of links?
