Letting Customers Find You On Mobile Devices Is Called Local Search Optimization Which Helps Your Business Be Found Online By Anyone In Your Geographic Location.

All Major Search Engines Use Local Data, Business Directories, and Data Aggregators

Google, Yahoo, and Bing use local data and from business directories like Superpages, Yelp, and MyYP and from the major data aggregators.  

The major data aggregators include Acxiom, Factual, Localeze, and Infogroup.   It's the data that the Maps applications on your smartphone use.

​People rely on your local information to find and contact you, get directions, find out your business hours and more.  You really need to have this information consistent and accurate.  At minimum, you should claim and verify your Google My Business Listing.

Local SEO is Important For All Websites

​

It's how you show up in the Google Maps section in a search. Also called "Google Local Pack", or Google "Snack Pack", only the top three show up in the Box. It's like the Olympics, There's Gold, Silver, and Bronze.  There are not medals for fourth place.  This is very valuable online real estate and it's critical to be one of the three!​ 

How Can You Win Against Your Competition?

​

Google has changed the algorithms because hackers figured out how to game the system. Google now uses various "trust factors" such as local citations, online reviews, some backlinks, and a consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone).

If this is set up correctly, you will rank higher than your competition and score online.
