Google Local Listings, Good or Bad For Offline SEO Consultants?
So I have got into the whole offline niche and I have worked with a few local businesses, the services I have been doing so far have mainly been submiting a business to Google local listings, some article writing and content etc.
This has be ok so far but I no there is alot more potential profits within this niche, such as monthly seo and ppc management, as I have good experiance with both.
My question is this.
Can I really expect a business to pay me hundreds of dollars a month to get them first page and hopefully number one rankings in google, when there is now a 10 box above all the natural listing for local targeted keywords, As these keywords only recieve a few hundred phrase match searches a month.
I mean being in position 1 on google now doesn't even get your site above the fold. Do you guys find this a problem? obviously the traffic is going to be much less than it would have been, even if you have 1 of the 10 boxes and number 1 in the natural results.
I would really like your thoughts on this guys, especialy for the folks who do this full time and provide seo services to local businesses.
Thanks
Bryan
