What is Local SEO and Why Does It Matter?

Local SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) focuses on improving your online visibility for location-based searches. For example, when someone searches for "coffee shops near me" or "plumber in Chorlton," a strong local SEO strategy will help ensure your business appears at the top of the results.

With more people relying on search engines to find local businesses, Local SEO is key to attracting customers to your doorstep. It’s especially important for industries like restaurants, retail shops, tradespeople, and professional services.

Our Local SEO Services

At PHRACTL, we offer a full range of Local SEO services designed to drive foot traffic and local leads straight to your business. Here’s how we can help:

1. Google My Business (GMB) Optimisation

Your Google My Business listing is one of the most important assets for local SEO. We’ll help you set up, optimise, and manage your GMB profile so your business stands out in local searches and Google Maps. From managing reviews to ensuring accurate business information, we make sure your GMB works for you.

2. Local Keyword Research

We conduct thorough keyword research to find the most relevant search terms for your business. By identifying what potential customers are searching for in your area, we can optimise your website to target high-intent keywords like "best café in Chorlton" or "Manchester digital marketing agency."

3. Local Citation Building

Citations (online mentions of your business) are essential for ranking in local search results. We ensure your business is listed accurately on key local directories such as Yelp, Yellow Pages, and other industry-specific platforms. This helps boost your credibility and search engine rankings.

4. On-Page Local SEO Optimisation

Your website needs to be optimised for both users and search engines. We’ll make sure your website has the right local keywords in critical places like your page titles, meta descriptions, and content. We also optimise for local schema markup to help search engines understand your location and services better.

5. Local Link Building

We help build links from local websites and organisations that matter. Whether it’s partnering with local bloggers, community sites, or gaining mentions from local publications, we’ll boost your online authority with high-quality local backlinks.

6. Mobile Optimisation

Most local searches happen on mobile devices. We ensure that your website is mobile-friendly, so customers searching for your business on their phones will have a seamless experience. Fast-loading, responsive websites are key to converting local search traffic into paying customers.

7. Reputation Management

Online reviews are a crucial part of local SEO. We’ll help you manage and respond to reviews on platforms like Google and Yelp, boosting your reputation and trustworthiness. Positive reviews not only build customer trust but also help improve your search rankings.
