South Bend SEO Services

Yes, search engine optimization is the best way to attract business. It takes a lot of time and effort to rank your business properly in local results. These local results depend on prominence, which is a measurement of how trusted and well known your company is in South Bend and the general area.

Many factors contribute to local prominence in the eyes of a search engine: citations, links, and reviews. While search engines use many data points to rank your site, none are more critical than these three things:

1. Citations – These are mentions of your company that have your business name, address, and phone number. You need Google My Business, Yelp, Local.com, and 45 other listings. The core listings needed to get good rankings locally are made up of those 48 sites, but there are a total of 125 that you will want created and managed to ensure the best ranks possible.

2. Reviews – Reviews prove to users that your service or product is excellent. Experts estimate 82% of people searching for local companies rely on reviews to make their decisions. Search engines know this, and because the search engines are focused on great user experience, they use the number of positive reviews to make better search results. A great South Bend SEO company should help you get more reviews for your business profiles online.

3. Links – Backlinks have been the backbone of successful search engine optimization campaigns for over a decade, and nothing has changed here. You want quality links that are relevant to your site so it can rank high in the search engines. Local businesses need specific links from strong local groups like the South Bend Chamber of Commerce or local networking groups like BNI.
