The SEO team at Vizion will identify the keyword opportunities and match these opportunities with the content currently available on your website.

While franchises often have more brand recognition than other local businesses, they face a lot of similar challenges in ensuring consistency of contact information and making timely updates. Local franchise owners can’t run their business on brand recognition alone, so it is essential to implement franchise SEO tactics that boost visibility across all the top, local search platforms while adhering to corporate branding and messaging guidelines.

FAQs

What Is Local SEO?

Local SEO describes the optimization of a website for search engines specific to a particular geographical area. Investing in a local SEO agency means ensuring that your company ranks highly in both search and map results for your company name and offerings. When your business’s site is optimized for local SEO, your brand visibility increases, and it becomes far easier for curious locals to find you across a wide variety of local and search platforms.

Why Is Local SEO Important?

Close to half of Google queries are the result of local searches. When locals perform “near me” searches with keywords that fit your industry or your offerings, you’ll want your business to be as visible as possible. Optimizing your business for local SEO helps you by:

• Improving your rankings on organic search results pages
• Ensuring new local customers can discover your brand when making local searches
• Driving more qualified search traffic to your site and to your business
• Targeting prospects exactly when they’re ready to buy
• Giving users the information they need to interact with your business online or in person
• Helping them make informed purchasing decisions
• Demonstrating your trustworthiness
• Making your business stand out from the competition

How Do You Do Local SEO?

To take advantage of local SEO, consider the following steps:

1. Set up or claim your business across all the major platforms including Google My Business, Bing Places, and Apple Maps.
2. Keep contact details, descriptions, photos, hours, and other information up-to-date and synchronized across all these platforms.
3. Craft local citations in a consistent format and make sure that they remain up to date.
4. List or update your company in online directories, such as local Chambers of Commerce, Yelp, and Yellow Pages.
5. Consistently monitor and respond to all reviews, whether they’re positive or negative. This shows that you value your customers’ experience and care about their feedback.
6. Set up and manage a store locator and individual local landing pages, keeping them in sync with the corresponding local listings.
7. Include hyper-local content on your local landing pages to demonstrate your authority for the products and services you offer.
