Summerville SEO Services

Yes, local SEO is an awesome way to attract business. It takes a lot of effort to rank a company properly in local search results. Local results depend on prominence, which is a measure of how trusted and well known your business is in Summerville and the surrounding area.

Multiple factors contribute to local prominence in a search engines algorithm: citations, links, and customer reviews. While Google uses many other data points to rank your web site, none are more important than these three things:

1. Citations/Listings – Mentions of your company that have your business name, address, and phone number. These start with Google My Business, Yelp, Local.com, and 48 total listings. The core listings needed to rank well locally are made up of those 48 websites, but there are about 125 more that you should have created and managed to get the highest ranks possible.

2. Positive Reviews – Reviews show users that your service or product is great. An estimated 82% of searchers looking for local businesses rely on customer reviews to help make their decisions. Google knows this, and because they are focused on better user experience, they calculate the value of positive reviews to produce better search results. A great Summerville SEO company should help you increase the number of positive 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 anytime soon. You need quality backlinks that are relevant to your website to rank high in search results. Local companies need links from important groups like the Summerville Chamber of Commerce or local networking groups like BNI.

Only 44% of the local company profiles on Google, 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. As you can see, most of the competition haven’t claimed their profiles. In almost every city, in nearly every industry, SEO will get you to the first page of results with an affordable budget.

For your competitors that have done the basics and claimed their company profile, and maybe even done some optimization of their website, you can still get ahead of them affordably by hiring an experienced SEO firm like ours. Search engines like Google change their ranking factors a few times a year, your competition will fall behind and lose rankings while your campaign is kept up to date with the latest ranking factors. That leads to more customers for you.
