San Mateo SEO Services

Yes, search engine optimization is a great way to get business. It takes a lot of effort and time to rank your business properly in local search results. These local results depend on prominence, which is a measurement of how trusted and well known your business is in San Mateo and the surrounding area.

Many factors add to local prominence in the eyes of a search engine: listings, links, and reviews. While Google uses many other data points to rank your website, nothing is more important than these 3:

1. Citations/Listings – These are mentions of your local business that have your company name, address, and phone number. You need Google My Business, Yelp, YellowPages, and 48 total listings. The core citations needed to rank well locally are made up of those 48 sites, but there are over 100 more that you should have created and managed to secure the highest ranks possible.

2. Reviews – Reviews convince users that your service or product is excellent. Experts estimate 82% of searchers looking for local companies rely on customer reviews to make their decisions. Google knows this, and because they are focused on better user experience, they count positive reviews to produce better search results. The right San Mateo SEO company can help you get and manage reviews for your business listings online.

3. Links – Links have been the root of successful search engine optimization campaigns for over a decade, and thats not going to change soon. You still need quality backlinks that are relevant to your site that will help it rank high in the search engines. Local businesses need good links from strong local groups like the San Mateo Chamber of Commerce or local networking groups like BNI.

Less than half of the local business profiles on Google My Business, the local entries on the maps in search results, are claimed and maintained. The rest are automated and not optimized. This shows most of your competition haven’t claimed their profiles and aren’t doing SEO either. In nearly every industry, in almost every city, SEO will get you to the first page of results with the right size budget.

For the competitors that have done basic local SEO and claimed their business listing, and maybe even done a little on-site of their website, you can still move ahead of them by hiring SEO professionals like us. Search engines change their ranking factors every times a year, your competition will lose rankings while your campaign is kept up to date with the latest trends. That leads to more business for you.
