Local Marketing
Many businesses do the majority of their work, and earn much of their revenue, through work with nearby customers. While there are a number of ways to reach local customers, online marketing (SEO, PPC, Media Buys) is one of the most affordable and effective. However, to reach those located nearby, locally-targeted online marketing campaigns should be a vital part of your overall online plan.
What is Local Marketing?
Local SEO and PPC can be done any number of ways. Essentially it’s a method of adjusting your current online advertising and marketing techniques so they target customers in your geographical area, or those searching for services in your area.
How Does Local Search Work?
Very seldom, does a searcher pick up their phone and attempt a “local search.” Instead, they naturally use local search “cues” in the search engines. For instance, they may search for “insurance agent in Allentown” If you are a Allentown based insurance agent, you want to be one of the first names that show up!
The Importance of Ranking on Local Searches
A consumer eating dinner in a nearby restaurant may use his or her smartphone to search for a business. Chances are if this consumer can find a local business that meets her needs, her searching is complete. In fact, half of mobile searches are conducted with the hope of finding a local result.
