Making a splash in any industry can be a challenge, but increasingly, getting noticed online is proving to be difficult for small businesses in such a cluttered digital landscape.
One of the best ways to ensure your company website is hitting all the right notes to maximise appearing in search results is through local SEO.
Local SEO is important, especially for small businesses that operate on a regional level, as opposed to a national level.
Though national SEO primarily focuses on ranking in searches for the entire country, local SEO focuses on narrowing the scope of search parameters, instead aiming to appear in search engine result pages within a specific local area.
There are several steps businesses can take to improve their search engine rankings (order of appearance on result pages) that can ultimately boost the number of visits they get to their sites.
