How Local SEO Works

Local SEO is exactly what it sounds like: SEO for a specific geographic region.

Just because it’s geared toward a smaller subset of customers does not mean it’s less important or less time-intensive than a broader, more conventional SEO campaign.

Local SEO strategy in many respects boils down to optimising your existing online brand within Google apps and increasing your total reach across relevant web directory listings. The cumulative effect is greater relevance and presence in Google search.

As the majority of commerce migrates to the web, your company’s digital footprint is even more important than its physical storefront. Local SEO boosts your organisation’s online visibility so search queries and leads are continuously in touch with your locations, products, services and differentiators.

You can think of local SEO as being everywhere your local customers need you to be — all at once.

In this sense, every organisation, from a small business to a global conglomerate, can benefit from a deeper, larger foothold in their geographic markets. In general, companies that sell physical products or that have physical storefronts are most ideally suited for a comprehensive local SEO strategy.

Local SEO Ranking Factors

Organic local search rankings have an enormous impact on whether your company is visible online and how much traffic you can expect to generate.

While the core tenets of SEO apply in principle, local SEO follows subtly different practices because the ranking factors in play are weighted differently in the eyes of search engines including Google and Bing.

Industry studies have shown the top local organic search rankings that should influence your marketing campaigns are:

  • On-page signals: 32%
  • Link signals: 31%
  • Behavioral signals: 10%
  • Personalization: 7%
  • Google My Business signals: 7%
  • Citations: 6%
  • Reviews: 6%

An investigation of these correlations reveals that local SEO services must be tailored to user preferences, because positive reviews and social commentary have an outsized impact on your site’s ranking potential. In terms of local SEO best practices, the above ranking factors are a great starting point on which to build your next local SEO campaign.

From Page 1 of Google to Checkout

We take a methodical, data-led approach to engineering SEO victories, and that often starts with optimising your brand across Google’s suite of interconnected applications. We look at every relevant local search result to identify where to invest resources.

Google automatically exports the business data from your Google My Business account to a number of other important online marketing channels, including:

  • Google Maps.
  • Local 3-packs.
  • Knowledge panels.
  • Google Posts.
  • SERP carousels.

That said, the proper transfer and population of this information – addresses, services, number of locations, etc. – is only possible if your Google My Business listing is appropriately claimed, set up and optimised. If a Google Map of your location shows incorrect information, it will mislead searchers and push prospects out of the funnel. We ensure this never happens to your business.

With Brafton, every Google SERP effectively serves as the front door to your business. When searchers need you, they find you — and it all starts with mapping the local intent of your audience to a relevant local listing your brand owns.

Harness the Power of Local Marketing for a Local Market

Brafton’s local SEO work increases your presence in search, in local listings and in online directories of every kind. If it’s part of your goals, we can ensure you rank simultaneously in your key geographic markets in Australia, like Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and cities in between. Brafton’s roots in Australia go back more than 15 years and our results as a local SEO agency in this market speak for themselves.

For brick-and-mortar shops with one storefront, your potential customers may be the local foot traffic outside your door. For digital-first stores, your chief audience may be anyone querying search engines with local phrases or questions. However, the ultimate goal is the same – to reach out and attract these shoppers, and provide them high-quality products or services before your competition does. The result is a positive return on investment, coming in the form of local brand recognition that can benefit you and your business or agency, as well as your local customers.

To earn the attention, trust and authority of your local market segment, Brafton SEO consultants capitalise on any and all local citations we find across the web. Those citations often come from online directories like:

  • Yelp.
  • TripAdvisor.
  • Google My Business.
  • Better Business Bureau.
  • Facebook Marketplace.
  • Amazon.
  • Bing Places.
  • Foursquare.
  • Twitter.
  • Chamber of Commerce.
  • Local.com.
  • Angie’s List.
  • Yext.
  • Merchant Circle.
  • LinkedIn Company Directory.
  • Apple Maps.
  • More.

Our local SEO marketing services put your business front and centre – in both the physical and digital realm – creating a branded, widespread customer experience for your local organic marketing niche.
