Local SEO improves the search engine visibility for local businesses within the nearby search results.

It is an essential part of the digital marketing mix for businesses, helping you to promote your services to local customers by boosting your online visibility across Google Maps, Google’s apps, Bing and online directories.

Local SEO targets “___ near me” location-specific keywords to help your local SEO ranking across specific areas, counties, towns and cities.

Affordable local SEO services.

There are so many factors to our local SEO services, but our local SEO strategy utilises a prioritised approach and continual development to get the best results. Citations, schema and Google reviews all affect optimisation – however, they are just the start for your business.

Our experts are experienced in local SEO for small businesses, ensuring you appear for your customers’ local searches
while keeping your Google Business Profile and its suite of applications up to date.

Explore our local marketing packages below and see how we can help.

Google Business Profile

Google Business Profile is the key to any Google local SEO campaign. Our team of consultants will claim, verify, and optimise your profile so your Google local listing appears within Google Maps and the search engine results for enquiries in your area.

Local Keyword Research

Our team of SEO experts will uncover location-specific keywords for your business (for example, “electricians in Manchester”) and tailor popular keywords so they match your top-level business information (“electrician X phone number”).

Analytics & Reporting

Every SEO campaign relies on analytics; local search marketing is no different. Our team of consultants will track your website, local keywords, traffic, and conversions, reporting on your campaign’s progress every step of the way.

Citations

Ensuring your online citations are correct and up to date is crucial for local search engine optimisation. We will ensure your NAP (Name, Address and Phone Number) is accurately displayed across your website and local business listings, making it easy for your leads to contact you.

Schema

Improve your online visibility with our local business schema markup service. Often overlooked in local SEO marketing, our consultants will ensure your website stands out from the crowd, helping the search engines to understand your products or services and rank you higher in the search results.

Reviews & Off-Page SEO

A crucial part of SEO for local businesses, your online reviews are a powerful way of building your reputation while displaying your business as a trustworthy source. We will work on these for you – enhancing your off-page SEO by acquiring authoritative, high-quality backlinks.

FAQs

What is the difference between SEO and local SEO?

SEO focuses on improving your website’s search engine rankings, helping you appear for your targeted keywords nationally. Local SEO focuses on a much smaller area, such as your city or county – more localised traffic.

Essentially the main difference between SEO and local SEO is that SEO is geared towards optimising your content, while local SEO centres around optimising your content for location-based searches.

They both help to boost your website’s online presence, but they focus on different rank factors and positions in the search engine results pages.

What types of businesses benefit the most from LOCALiQ's local SEO services?

Every business can benefit from investing in local SEO services, but for some industries, this can be the difference in achieving local marketing success in their area. These include:
