Local SEO Campaign Basics for Small Businesses
Claim & Optimize Your Google Business Profile
- Some key elements of an optimization effort include local business categories, NAP consistency (name, address, and phone number), and online reviews.
- Another feature that should be prioritized is posting updates similar to social media posts—these can be used for promotions or to share information about your business.
- Finally, it is key to claim and manage your Google listings and ensure your NAP information remains consistent across online platforms and citation data aggregators.
- Inconsistent NAPs may cause search engines to misinterpret results, leading to lower local search rankings – particularly important for local packs and organic searches.
Incorporate Local Keywords in Website Content
- Add a contact or directions page to your homepage to show searchers that your services cover their area and boost your SEO.
- This simple move could bring more customers through your door.
- Use Google Search Console’s free tool, “Local Keyword Monitor,” to track your local keywords over time and monitor any changes that could negatively affect their rankings.
- In addition, Semrush Rank Tracker allows you to monitor search engine performance across particular countries, states, or cities.

Incorporate Location-Specific Keywords in Content
Test Your Website on Mobile
- First, ensure your website is mobile-friendly by using Google’s Mobile Friendly test to assess it.
- Next, test its speed using PageSpeed Insights’ 2G or 4G simulation capability, which can reveal performance issues on your site.
- Lastly, all platforms must feature consistent names, addresses, and phone numbers.
This is known as NAP consistency and is essential for local SEO purposes; search engines use this data to match businesses to relevant searches confidently.
Improve Backlinks For Website Authority
Use Local Keywords For Location-Based Search
- Start by filtering explicit local keywords that include spatial terms and indicate searcher intent, then add any pertinent implicit ones.
- Next, search for competitors ranking for specific keywords while monitoring metrics like monthly local searches or Personal Keyword Difficulty to see which are ranking well.
- Once you’ve identified local keywords, prioritize their optimization on key pages and sections of your site – such as your homepage, service pages, and contact pages.
- When optimizing for local terms, ensure they appeal to a wider audience, keeping visitors coming back!
