I Need Local SEO Advice/Services

by MaxJackson

Posted: 13 years ago 10 replies

Hello,

I have a small seo company and most of my clients are local companies. I have had a lot of success over the last year but a few of my clients just don't seem to budge. Here is the mix of link building I am typically using:

directory submission - national
directory submission - local/citations
social bookmarking
article marketing

Other Link Building Activities I use Sparingly:
blog comments
forum comments
press release

I am wondering if anyone has any advice on additional link building strategies that are effective specifically for local businesses. I haven't found a good company that does local directory/citation submissions well. They just don't seem to agrigate the information very well and they dont' seem to use the greatest directory lists. So if anyone has any advice on a local directory submission service and or any advice on how I can improve my local link building strategy I would GREATLY appreciate it.

Thank you for taking the time,
Mose

You should update your strategy to account for the panda update.

Build more links from pages that you've posted up quality content. In addition to article marketing, post to blogs (private network w/ high PR is preferred), web 2.0 sites.

Also, integrate in more social proof. Set up a facebook page, collect facebook likes. Get g+ recommendations, tweets, posts from other microblogs, etc.

Local seo sevices are one of the best method or one of the best way of ranking a site on google.

Always make use of social networks because it generates allot of traffic for a site to rank NO 1 on the first page on google.
