What is Local SEO?
Local SEO is the practice of optimising a business, product, or service to rank high in search engine query result that is location-specific. Google (Yahoo,Bing,Baidu and other search engines) uses a visitor’s IP address and geolocation to determine what results to show the user. So when someone searches for Restaurant, theatre, or Supermarket, the search engine will show businesses relevant to their location in SERP(Search Engine Result Page).
Local SEO can improve your website’s visibility on Google’s local search results. Any brick and motor business or business that serves a geographic area can benefit from local SEO service.
34% of organic traffic goes to top 3 position of SERP. If your business is resulted in Google Map Pack(3 most relevant listings for any related keywords), then local SEO can increase your chance of getting found and help you to grow your business.

Our Local SEO Strategies
In addition to our current SEO strategies, we have specific methods to increase traffic and sales for local businesses. We build on our fundamental methods of SEO success to create a more consumers-driven approach in your area.
Google My Business Optimization
If you want your business to appear in Google’s local SEO 3-pack, at the top of results, you need to claim and optimize your Google My Business listing. You’ll also want to keep your business name, address, and phone number (NAP) information consistent across your online listings to improve your chances of earning a top spot in results.
Local Citation Building
Citation building campaigns can help you earn local listings on sites like Bing, Yahoo,Weibo, Openrice, Facebook, Apple Maps, governement site, job sites, and more. These citations contain information like your company’s name, address, phone number, and website.
Local Keyword Targeting
To rank at the top of local search results, you will also need to target local keywords on your website and in your website content. Targeting keywords based on location can help your business appear in more local searches so people in your area can find and contact you.
Rating and Review Management
Comments and ratings can appear on your web site and other sites such as Google My Business, Yelp and Facebook. Positive or negative, it is important that you respond to all comments to show customers that you take their needs seriously. People look at reviews before visiting local businesses to keep your comments updates and respond to questions and comments will encourage more people to visit your business.
Link Building
Start by creating valuable content that target local keywords related to your business. If other sites like what they see, they can link to your site in their own content. Search engines like Google consider the number and quality of backlinks when ranking sites. This means it is important to have a solid backlink profile, with business lines of authority in the region.
User Experiences Analysis
Its important that your site provides a good user experience to attract more local traffic. If your website doesn’t provide a positive UX, visitors will waste no time to hit the back button — and your bounce rate will soar. High bounce rates signal a poor user experience, and search engines won’t rank your site highly if it provides a less-than-desirable UX.
Mobile Responsive Design
More than half of online searches – nearly 60 percent – occur on mobile devices. Often, users who need information, while the party place, especially when it comes to finding local businesses. This is crucial for local businesses to adopt mobile responsive designs. When your site is responsive, they look great and perform well, regardless of user access device – desktop, mobile phone or tablet.
