Drive Your Business Website To The Top With Google Places And Social Media Content

Get Your Business on Google Places Now

As a long time online marketer it sometimes amazes me how many local businesses do not have their websites and social media set up in Google Places.  This one simple step can help you come up at the top of the search engine results, especially on mobile devices that are GPS driven. If you have a local business with a physical address this is one of the first things you must do, create a Google Plus account and set your business up on Google Places.

Now for the most important part of the equation, SEO content from your blog or social media accounts. You need quality original content added to your site on a regular basis targeting the local keywords for your business to keep moving up in the search results and stay there. Hiring a qualified SEO content writer to post for you two to three times per week is highly recommended, remember the search engine spiders are looking for something new to eat so when they keep coming by and you have nothing new to offer, they stop coming…

Every business should start with this as their initial goals for Local SEO right out of the gate. In addition to the above every business should have a Facebook business page, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube and Pinterest. I suggest utilizing a Content Management System such as WordPress to build your website as it is very SEO friendly, Google loves it, and it is easy for you, the owner to update should you so desire. With a WordPress Blog you can link all of your social media accounts so that your new content posts are syndicated across all of your social media networks automatically. It is also important to interact with your friends and fans online as all of the interaction creates more positive and relevant content about your business and when all are interlinked correctly this can help solidify your top rankings.
