We do the exploration to identify out what customers are typing into Yahoo in order to find your categories of items or services. While we explained that Search Engine Optimization is so much more than just getting found on Yahoo, it’s a good place to start so that we discover how to modify your content to what’s relevant and we can see how many people in your city are searching. The potential of hundreds or even thousands of people searching for local businesses in a specific industry on Yahoo is not uncommon.

Since you’re the expert in your industry, we partner with you to collect the information we need in order to produce high quality content on your website on a steady schedule. Search engines love serving people new, relevant, quality content! Over time this will cause search engines and people to view you as the leading experts of your arena and with this sort of authority comes great riches. More websites will link to your quality content that will results in more potential customers on your website.

When people do find you the local search results, they will see what is called your “Google My Business” page. This is an online profile of your business, much like any other social media profile, it includes photos and relevant info about your business. Setting this up or checking to make sure this is setup correctly leads to an increase in inquiries for your business all on it’s own!

There are hundreds of local directories (like Yelp and Yellow Pages, etc) that people use to find local businesses these days. We make sure that you’re on as many relevant directories as possible, with consistent and accurate information about your company. When your name, address, and phone number (NAP) are displayed online in a local business directory, it’s called a Citation.
