What is Local SEO?
Local SEO is a branch of search engine optimization focused on improving visibility in geographically targeted searches. While it shares core strategies with general SEO, it includes unique optimizations like managing Google Business Profiles and local citations. On Google, local SEO is especially critical, as businesses must rank both in traditional search results and in the prominent Map Pack. An effective local SEO strategy boosts visibility across both, increasing your chances of attracting local customers.

- Link Building – Secure high-quality backlinks from local websites, publications, and organizations to underscore your regional relevance and boost authority.
- Reviews and Reputation Management – Solicit genuine reviews, respond promptly (whether positive or negative), and actively engage with your audience to build trust and credibility.
