2. WE TRULY UNDERSTAND THE
IMPORTANCE OF BEING FOUND LOCALLY
▪ A MarketingSherpa study asked marketers which type of search had the biggest
impact on their marketing objectives, almost 54% of respondents stated that local
search had the most positive impact.
▪ An audit of 40,000 business listings in over 50 local directories found that 43% of
the listings had at least one incorrect or missing address. The audit also found that
37% of the listing had at least one incorrect or missing business name.
▪ A Yext study found that 42% of consumers used search engines as their primary tool
to find local business information. Compared to 23% of consumers using family or a
friend’s recommendation. - See more at: http://thrivenetmarketing.com/webmarketing-services/local-seo/#sthash.xeekbwVw.dpuf

4. MAJOR DATA PROVIDER DATABASE AUDIT
Our local SEO services include an audit of your business information in the major data
provider databases. There are several top-tier data providers within the local search
ecosystem that are considered a “primary feed” to other local business directories.
Any errors in one of these data providers will be syndicated across their network and
can negatively affect your local online visibility. We take the time to ensure that your
business information is correct and optimized for local search.
5. GOOGLE+, BING AND YAHOO LOCAL
OPTIMIZATION
Each of the three major search engines in the United States have their own local
portals where businesses can be listed. Google+ Local is the biggest of the three local
search portals and has the ability to deliver the most calls and traffic to your web site.
In addition to optimizing Google+ Local listings, we will also optimize the listing within
Yahoo Local and Bing Local. We ensure that these business profiles carry over the
same brand identity and are optimized for your target location or service area.
6. OTHER LOCAL BUSINESS DIRECTORIES
There are numerous second tier and niche business directories that can assist in
improving your local search visibility as well as help with your online reputation. We
will create optimized business listings in second tier local business directories such as
Angie’s List, FourSquare, MojoPages and Yelp. Our team will also research niche
directories based upon your industry and submit your business information.
7. CREATE BUSINESS CITATIONS
Our services also include building local “business citations”. A business citation can be
defined as a reference of your business name and address on another web site. An
example citation would be a listing on your local Chamber of Commerce website
where they reference your business information, but there is not a link back to your
web site. We leverage high quality third-party sites to build citations for your business.
8. ONLINE REVIEWS
Online company reviews are another important ranking factor in local SEO. Online
reviews can provide positive social proof about your company and help increase trust
with your customers. At Thrive we can help you implement an effective online review
acquisition strategy as well as provide recommendations on the best software for
customer review marketing.
