Google Places for Business/Local SEO
- SEO |
They have deleted some areas. Previously, I was able to use Categories and Additional Details to put keywords into. Now, Additional Details is gone and Gategories only allows two of my keywords (Hypnotherapy Service and Weight Loss Service), none of my other important ones.
I do Hypnotherapy Training and Certification. I teach a class for hypnotherapists and other practitioners in how to get clients. At least those two keywords are good for them to get clients, but none of their other niches (such as smoking cessation). The goal for my students is to get more local clients, and my goal is to get students. My main need is to tell the students what they need to do to get clients. Being found on Google's map is very important to them. (I also teach them local SEO for their own websites).
Ramifications: there is no category for hypnosis (the word hypnotherapy is not allowed in some states), nor one for Training, nor hypnosis/hypnotherapy certification. I'm guessing the only place now for keywords is Description, the restrictive Categories, and perhaps the names of photos and videos?
Anyone know or have any recommendations/opinions?
