Local SEO Services Essential for Top Rankings

GMB Listings provide information about your local business. Optimizing Google My Business is critical for high visibility in search results. Ideally, businesses want to appear in the top 3 listing in local search, also known as Google’s Local Map Pack, or Google 3-pack.

Local Citation Building

In order to boost your authority with Google it’s important to build citations to your website. Citations are mentions of your business name, address and phone number (NAP) on local directories and other websites. Consistency in NAP information on reputable websites and directories is important in building trust with Google and achieving inclusion in local search results.


Review Management

Monitoring and responding to online reviews is a key part of local SEO management. Razor Rank will monitor and assist your business when it comes to responding to both negative and positive reviews. Positive reviews can help a business increase sales, but responding appropriately to negative reviews can enhance your company’s reputation and help generate sales as well.


Utilize Schema

Schema (Structured Data, or Mark Up) is code added to the web pages that provides Google information on what the page is about, and how to display it in search results. There are many types of schema: 5-star reviews, aggregate ratings, location markup, local business markup, attorney markup and many other types of schema markup can be extremely valuable when competing for local traffic. You can test your site for proper markup with Google’s structured data testing tool.


Link Building

Earning links from quality sites can help build authority for your website and enhance its local rankings. Links can come from many sources, and it’s important to know that Google judges the quality of the links that point to your site by evaluating the website the links come from. Razor Rank can help you earn quality links and boost your local search rankings.
