YOUR GUIDE TO:
Local SEO
Services UK
What’s happening in the
world of Local SEO Services?
There was a time when business owners focused on serving only their
local communities: the world had not yet become small.
These business owners thought about ways to attract their local
consumers and they often didn’t have to think too long or hard about
how to get people into their stores.
Now businesses have to worry about how to compete with other local
vendors as well as the rest of the world.
It’s no surprise then that most brick-and-mortar businesses have
succumbed to the magical and affordable world of the internet, and
many have closed their doors.
What’s happening in the
world of Local SEO Services? cont’d
Without realising it, businesses were rushing to get on the World Wide
Web and paid big money to set up websites and landing pages so that
they could be found.
Fast forward a few years later and anyone and everyone is on the web
and has a landing page to call their own.
This brought out the increased interest in search engine optimisation
(SEO). Now, more than ever, businesses are thinking local and
encouraging their customers to think local.
This movement from global economics to local economics has
sparked an interest in Local SEO Services.
What are Local
SEO Services?
What are Local SEO Services?
Local SEO Services help you organise and place your business online
so that it can interact with search engines based on geographic
information.
Say you run a restaurant and you have a website: when a customer
does a generic search for the type of restaurant you operate, you’ll
want the search engine to populate your restaurant based on their
proximity to your restaurant.
There are several tasks that need to be completed to ensure proper
Local SEO is in place: registering in online business directories,
sourcing and securing incoming links from other online providers,
securing online citations and much more.

Local, Regional
& National
Optimising for Local,
Regional & National SEO
It’s important, to understand the difference between contributing to
the nation with your search engine optimisation techniques and
contributing to the local community with them. Balance is key.
One way of increasing your Local SEO attributes is to incorporate local
interests in your blogging or website copy: start broad and then focus
your writing to your own services or offerings in your area.
Use local and organic photos on your website: don’t use stock or
generic photos and ensure your business can be found or appear on a
Google map is important to your continued success.
