Local SEO

Local SEO is all about ranking high in the search engines around a specific location, usually your shop or the area where you provide a service.

By performing local SEO, your business can attract customers in your catchment area and boost sales.

Local SEO Explained

Let’s say you have a dentist based in Liverpool and want to rank top for the search term “Emergency Dentist”, one way you can achieve this is by implementing a local SEO strategy.

You may not realise this but when you look for a particular service in Google, proximity is a factor in the results you see.

If a person searches for “Emergency Dentist” from London, they will see different results from a person who searched for this service in Liverpool.

This is because search engines understand that proximity is a factor in certain types of searches. If somebody types in “Emergency Dentist Near Me” from Liverpool, they do not want to see a list of London-based dentists.

So think of your business, do you provide a service and only target a specific region? If you do, the focus of your SEO strategy should be on targeting and acquiring customers of proximity.

How Local SEO Improves Conversion

People like to shop locally, it is more convenient. You can go to the shop to inspect the product before purchase if you are a retail customer.

If you have a problem it is easier to return the item, you could just visit the store and hand it back.

If you are looking for a service such as “Drain Unblocking”, the company should be based locally and they should be able to get to your property faster compared to a drain company on the other side of the country.

When you speak to the shop or service provider, they will speak the same as you, they may be from your area, and you may trust them more. These are intrinsic factors, factors that can also help increase engagement and conversion.

Have you ever been on holiday to a foreign country and met people from the same area as you? You are instantly friends, you feel like you have a shared understanding and may even look out for each other. Well it is the same online, people trust things and people they are familiar with.

Who Needs Local SEO

Local SEO is essential for any business that operates in a specific geographic area and relies on local customers to drive sales and growth.

Whether you’re a small, independently owned business or a large company with multiple locations, optimising for local search can help you connect with customers who are actively looking for your products or services in your area.

Local SEO is especially crucial for brick-and-mortar businesses like restaurants, retail stores, medical practices, and service providers such as plumbers, electricians, or landscapers. These businesses depend on local customers, and appearing in local search results can directly influence foot traffic directly to your premises and online leads.

Even businesses that offer services at clients’ locations, such as home cleaning, pest control, or lawn care, can benefit significantly from local SEO. By optimising your online presence for the specific areas you serve, you make sure that your business appears when potential customers search for the services you offer.
