At Kirk, we are dedicated to helping our local businesses gain traffic to their websites by using local ranking factors such as keywords, names, addresses phone numbers, social media platforms, and more to help you rise in search results.
Local SEO refers to the method of optimizing your online platforms to rank highly for location-based searches. A location-based or “local” search is an online query that generates results near the user’s location. The user can specify local searches, ex. “best coffee Portsmouth NH”, and often local results are automatically generated by search engines based on its knowledge of a user’s location. For example, if the user searches “best steak restaurant” Google will automatically generate results for the best steak restaurant nearby the user’s current location.
There are countless techniques that can be implemented to boost your business’s local search ranking. One of the major aspects of local SEO is determining the keywords that customers use to search for your services online. These keywords are then used in your written content and coding. Along with keywords, your company’s profile will be claimed on Google and other directories like Yelp, LinkedIn, and Four Square. There’s also a vast technical side to proper local optimization involving the use of alt tags, meta descriptions, and links in your website’s coding.
