Locality Website Advantages..

If you have a business which is based around local customers, a hairdresser, a vet, a doctor’s surgery, then you rely on being able to be found in a locality search because if your customers are searching their neighbourhood for your services, there are likely to a lot of other businesses they could choose above yours.

And there is nowhere that your local business listing is more important than on the internet. You will know yourself from the times you have searched for businesses or services in your area, that you will do your research and make your choices when you have the time, and the most convenient time to do this sort of research is at home, or during a lull in the office – in front of your computer.

Your customers are more than likely searching in the same way, so you need to be sure that your website and your business will show up in a local search in search engines. There are a few simple ways you can increase your chances of this, the most important of course, is the information you have on your site, and on each page.

Make sure that your website has your street address, town/city, county and country on each page, spelt out in full, or using any abbreviations which are commonly used in your address. If your town or county is small or obscure, you may also want to include larger towns it is near, or how many miles south/north it is from a larger, more well known town.

With your address and contact details on each page of your website, you can still include a map, or directions on your contact page, or even a separate ‘How to Find Us’ page, linked to your contact page. Also make sure that the title tag of your homepage includes your town, state/county and country. Your domain name is also important in your locality ranking, and if you can, choose one with both your business, and your region, for example, Double Glazing Kent.
