A few weeks ago Google changed the look of Google Places. They changed the layout  and dropped ” More about this place” from the individual business places page. I have received allot of question if Citations still matter. 

Here is my answer:

I often get asked, how do I know we are getting our moneys worth. And with SEO its sometimes hard to give real reports each month. The only thing you can really show a client is the results in the search engines.

We often talk about market domination. While we can get many of the top 10 results on page 1 of google we tend to focus on getting exposure for mutiple keywords rather than just one keyword. However, this is the part where I want to toot my own horn.

I just published a current list of local directories that can be found on the local site submit blog

This list consists of over 60 local directories you can post your business information and get backlinks and citations for your business. This is the best list I have seen and is current. If you have any additions please let me know.

We recently reached the 300 client milestone. While we are just moving along with business as usual this milestone kinda just came and went so I thought i would blog about it.

Local SEO seems to be what everyone wants. Our reputation management marketing has produced olmost zero sales. I say almost… we got a few. But we seem to hitting our stride with Google Maps and Local Organic search. Everything is working and sticking. Companies are seeing results and asking us for more. We are getting referrals and seem to have some happy customers.

Is Your business Ranking in the top 7 on Google Maps?

Search has turned local. There is a reason why the paper yellow page companies are filing bankruptcy. Search is moving online and its going local. Google shows a map as the top listing when performing a search with a city name.

Additionally Google is also displaying a map even when you don’t specify a city. So when searching “what you need”, “BMW repair” in this example Google knows what city my computer is in and will display a map on the first page.

So we are officially rolling out the local search tool checker. This tool will help your business understand how well they are optimized for local search.

In addition the Local Citation Finder will help you discover new citations in order to beat your competition in Google local.

In the next week we are launching the local dashboard where you ca manage your local business from one single page.

Stay tuned…….
