1. Keyword Research

The first and most important step in any successful local search engine optimisation strategy is to research keywords. You need to really focus on finding keywords that are related to your product or service, have a decent amount of traffic and are not overly competitive. When your website is brand new it has no ranking or authority online, this means you will need to focus SEO efforts on long tail keywords. Long tail keywords are much easier to rank for and are generally less competitive. For example, trying to rank your website for a keyword like ‘mens clothing’ is going to be almost impossible. But trying to rank for a long tail keyword alternative like ‘affordable but stylish mens clothing’ will be much easier.

2. Social Media Sharing

Being able to share content directly to social media is becoming an important part of SEO.

Other things that are not part of your website such as high quality back links is another topic entirely. If you are not planning on putting in the time and effort to your local search engine optimisation strategy another good option to look at would be pay per click ads. Keep in mind that if you do the wrong thing when it comes to SEO it is very easy to harm the rank of your website and cause damage that needs to be fixed in order to rank again. There is no quick way to rank with SEO and you should avoid anyone trying to sell you a quick solution.

3. Website Performance

BThe next step to a successful local search engine optimisation strategy is to make sure your website is SEO friendly. If your website’s code is poorly optimised for SEO the Google bots will not be able to crawl and index it correctly. Make sure that the formatting of every page is correct with a clear hierarchy for text, images and links. URLs need to be relevant to the keywords you are trying to rank for and easy to understand. Technical SEO is very difficult and time consuming. If you are not willing to put in the time and effort to do it correctly you are better off looking to a professional SEO company to help out.
