Southfield SEO Services

Yes, local search engine optimization is an awesome way to grow your business. It takes a lot of effort to rank a company properly for local search results. These results depend on prominence, which is a measurement of how trusted and well known your company is in Southfield and the general area.

Many details contribute to local prominence in Google’s algorithm: listings, backlinks, and customer reviews. While Google uses multiple points of data to rank your website, nothing is more critical than these three things:

1. Citations – Mentions of your local business that contain your business name, address, and phone number. You need Google My Business, Yelp, Local.com, and 45 other sites. The core listings needed to rank well locally are made up of those 48 listing sites, but there are about 125 more that you will want created and managed to secure the highest ranks possible.

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

3. Links – Links have been the backbone of successful SEO campaigns for 20 years, and nothing has changed here. You still need quality backlinks that are relevant to your site so it can rank high in search engines. Local companies need specific links from important groups like the Southfield Chamber of Commerce or local groups like BNI.

For your competitors that have done basic local SEO and claimed their profiles, and done a little on-page of their site, you can still move ahead of them quickly by hiring an experienced SEO firm like ours.
