Local SEO Ranking Factors and Location Pages

Google names three main local SEO factors: relevance, distance and prominence. You cannot change distance, so local SEO best practices focus on relevance (categories, keywords, content) and prominence (reviews, links, citations).

For each location we build a page with a local SEO content strategy: address, opening hours, directions, local stock and photos. Optimizing title tags for local SEO means adding the city to the title of each location page. Content marketing for local SEO, such as local guides and events, helps you improve local SEO further.

We measure results with Google Analytics conversion tracking for local SEO, so you can see calls, direction requests and store visits as well as sales.

Our local SEO marketing plans are priced by the number of locations. We quote a fixed monthly price after a short call.

Google Business Profile optimization includes: selecting the correct business categories, writing a keyword-optimized description, uploading high-quality photos, adding all service areas, enabling product listings, setting accurate hours, and implementing a review acquisition strategy. We handle all of this as part of our local SEO service.

Local citations are online mentions of your business's Name, Address, and Phone number (NAP). Consistent NAP data across Google, Bing, Yell, Thomson Local, Trustpilot, and 40+ other directories is a significant local ranking signal. Inconsistent citations actively harm local rankings.
