State College SEO Services

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

Many details contribute to local prominence in the eyes of Google: listings, backlinks, and reviews. While Google uses multiple data points to rank your website, none are more critical than these three things:

1. Citations – 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 sites. The core citations needed to get good rankings locally are made up of those 48 websites, but there are over 100 more that you will want created and managed to get the highest ranks possible.

2. Positive Reviews – Reviews convince users that your service or product is excellent. An estimated 82% of people searching for local companies rely on reviews to make their decisions. Google knows this, and because they are focused on better user experience, they count positive reviews to develop better search results. A great State College SEO company should help you increase the number of positive reviews for your company profiles online.

3. Backlinks – Links have been the core of successful search engine optimization campaigns for 15 years, and thats not going to change anytime soon. You still need quality links that are relevant to your website to rank high in search engines. Local businesses need good links from important groups like the State College Chamber of Commerce or local groups like BNI.

Only 44% of the business profiles on Google My Business, the ones that can show up on the maps in search results, are maintained and claimed by their owners. The rest were created automatically and not optimized. This means most of your competition haven’t claimed their profiles and aren’t doing SEO either. In almost every city, in nearly every industry, SEO will get you to the front page with the right size budget.

If competitors have done basic local SEO and claimed their company profile, and maybe even done a little on-page of their site, you can still get ahead of them quickly by hiring an experienced SEO firm like ours.

That leads to more customers for your company.
