Enhance Your Local Visibility Online

Local search engine optimization is a specific digital marketing strategy used to improve search engine rankings for a business who relies on a location-specific customer base. This means that if you have a local business, your strategy is going to be completely different than a business trying to reach a wide, national audience, including how content is optimized and building links that establish authority and trust.

A winning strategy means your business will not only be at the top of the list of search results, you’ll have map-based visibility and top spots in local directories and our local SEO agency can help!

Local SEO in Raleigh, NC

Onpage SEO for Local Search

When we start on a local SEO project, we make sure that the structure of the website focuses on the Main services the company offers, as well as the locations they are trying to target. By creating and optimizing geo-targeted service/product pages, we are able to target ideal customers in specific nearby locations. This involves everything from geo-targeted content and meta titles, to schema markup.

You have to stand out from the moment a potential customer in your area starts their search, and that means you need a strong online presence. With a local SEO agency like TheeDigital, we can launch you to the top of search engine results while maximizing your visibility and reputation for excellence offsite, too.

Content Writing for Local Optimization

When it comes to ranking pages, Google’s goal is to provide the most relevant, high-quality results for their users. For a local business seeking the top spot in rankings, content is key. More specifically, content that will reach your target audience and relevant customers is key.

Intensive Keyword Research

It all begins with knowing the keywords and phrases your target audience is using as well as what your competitors are leveraging to bring in traffic. Our digital marketing team does a deep-dive into keyword research to pinpoint those keywords, building location-specific long-tail phrases and questions that will get results in both typed and voice searches. Whether you’re a pediatric dentist or personal injury attorney, we’ll connect with your clients where they are.

Conversion-Ready Content Creation

With a list of words and phrases that connect with your audience, we then craft professionally-written, locally optimized content that doesn’t just check off Google algorithm requirements. We make sure every page, from your home page to blog articles are relevant and engaging for your readers in order to help you build trust and stand out as an authority in your industry. Whether you are targeting a single location, or you have a wider reach, the content we create will attract clients in every market.

Establish Your Presence

If you have multiple locations, we will help you differentiate each one with a unique business name, local address, and local phone number. This is essential to ensuring each location stands out as an individual presence to Google algorithms and is unique to location-based results.

Comprehensive Website Optimization

Optimized content is the foundation of local SEO, but we also utilize technical elements to push your website to the top. Our team will include schema markup, mobile-friendly features, improve page load times, and image optimization that increase algorithm performance and delight website visitors.

Link Building for Local SEO

While on-site local optimization is a necessity, it doesn’t stop there. We know that in order for your business to be trusted, both by Google and by your market, you need authority, and building links is key to doing this. Unlike many SEO agencies that use unethical tactics to build thousands of poor-quality links, we use white hat SEO techniques that focus on building high-quality, niche-specific links. As part of our local SEO strategy for our clients, we implement the following link-building tools.

Google My Business Listing

We will optimize your Google My Business profile with images, custom services, keywords, and more to increase visibility on search results pages and within Google Maps to draw more traffic to your website.

Industry Specific and Local Directories

Professional directories are an ideal way to highlight your skills, experience, and specializations while local directories place you in front of an engaged audience in your area who is looking for your service. Both are key to creating the links that will improve your Google ranking. We’ll make sure your business is listed across major and industry specific directories with visible, optimized listings and links back to your website to build authority and increase traffic.

Social Proof Through Reviews

Review websites like Yelp! and resources such as Google Reviews are scanned by algorithms to determine social proof, relevancy, and trust in and your presence will increase your rankings.  Just as importantly, your potential customers are scanning these resources to find trustworthy businesses who provide high-quality service. Our strategy includes reputation management that ensures you increase your reviews while mitigating any negative concerns.

Social Media Presence

We will set up your optimized social media profiles on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and other leading platforms to make sure you’re appealing to your target audience wherever they may be.
