Local SEO Specialist 

What are Local SEO Specialist Services?

Put simply, Local SEO Specialist Services (or Local Search Engine Optimization) allows for people in your vicinity to find you when looking for goods, services or information relevant to your business.

While Organic SEO Services more often relate to how your website ranks in Bing, Amazon or Google’s Search Results, Local SEO refers to how your Google My Business listing ranks in the Google Maps Pack or your business shows up in Apple Maps.

Local SEO services also helps to ensure that important listings in local directories (or citations) are kept up-to-date. While it might not seem very important, Google uses signals from local business directories to increase your local rankings — so while a customer may not always go to the Yellow Pages to find you, Google most certainly will.

Looking for the Best Local SEO Services?

If you’re looking for the best local SEO services then you’ll need:

Google My Business Optimization

The best Google My Business listing contains all of the necessary information a potential client may need to find your business. But it doesn’t stop there. KEOCH can ensure that your GMB listing is correctly optimized for the right keywords, consistent NAP, technical architecture, and much more… When someone types in “best … near me”, we want you to rank high!

Local Directory Citations and Business Directory Listings

Local Directory Citations include any mention of your business in online directories or industry-specific sites and are essential to Local SEO. Directories such as the Yellow Pages or Thomson Local aren’t just for people, they’re for search engine crawlers too. The more references to your business in high-value directories the better.

A Local Search Engine Optimized Website

If your website isn’t optimized for Local SEO or provides different information to your GMB listing, then you could be in for a headache. Our skilled website engineers can ensure that your website is not only optimized for Organic SEO, but for Local SEO too.

Effective Paid Advertising (PPC)

At KEOCH, we believe that paid advertising (or PPC) should only ever be used to help amplify your organic (or non-PPC) ranking strategy.

Why? We want to save you money! (not fill Google’s pockets)

While an effective PPC strategy may help to quickly level the field between you and the competition, it’s important not to get locked into the Google, Facebook and Bing AdSpend cycle. If your business relies on Ads expenditure to generate new business, then it is likely to stay that way, and if your hard-earned dollars stop going to Ads then your business may grind to a halt.

However, PPC campaigns (when handled effectively) can be a golden opportunity for revenue and lead-generation. The data that can be extrapolated from effective PPC campaigns can be fed into your organic strategy and be incredibly valuable. As such, any complementary PPC campaign should be handled with finesse.

Reputation Management, Reviews Management and Acquisition

Put simply: Reviews Matter

87% of consumers say that they read the reviews for the business, product or service they’re searching for. From tracking, acquiring, managing and responding, you need to be equipped with the latest technologies to build credibility, trust and loyalty for your business. If your business has a 4.7 star rating with 22 reviews, potential customers will see greater public endorsement than a competitor’s listing that shows less (or even no reviews). Reviews can also help increase local seo rankings, so it’s important that, wherever possible, relevance leads to social proof to demonstrate that your product or services are trustworthy.

Remember: Google wants to show results to searchers that resolve the query they’re looking to answer. Anything you can do to help Google do this job better, the more the search engine will reward you.
