What is Local Search Marketing?
Local Search Marketing is a process of:
- Ensuring your business location(s) is correctly listed and properly represented on various local listing websites throughout the web (example: Google, Bing, Yelp, YP.com, etc). This process is commonly referred to as NAP Consistency.
- Monitoring and responding to online reviews.
- Increasing your rank or positioning on these various websites throughout the web.
Why is Local Search Marketing Important?
- When you search on Google or Bing and a list of local businesses show up, that is local search marketing. If you are not there, then you are not found.
- Reviews play a huge role in a customer's decision on whether or not to buy from you. Negative reviews can destroy your reputation if not properly handled.
- It ensures your business information is correct. It is very irritating for customers when your information is inaccurate; especially your business hours.
