Local SEO Services in Baltimore, Maryland

If you own or operate a local business — based in a small town or a big city with one or more physical locations — it is not enough to rank at the top of organic search results on Google, Yahoo!, or others. You also need to focus on your local SEO ranking.

Local search results on Google and other sites are results showing physical businesses near the user that they can visit. Local search results are presented before organic search results and are separated via a “snack pack” box that clearly shows to users that these are local, physical locations they can visit in their area.

People are constantly logging onto the internet, pulling up Siri, or asking Alexa for local businesses they need to visit:

• Restaurants near me
• Plumbers in 21224
• Emergency roofer in Baltimore
• Shoe shop near VA
• Best therapist in Anne Arundel county

The importance of ranking high in local SEO?

Being a search result in the snack pack box, immediately catching the attention of the user and showcasing you are a trust local business, shows that you are convenient location that can be visited or contacted that day, resulting in sales and a higher clientele.

The first solution to achieving a top spot in local search rankings is to utilize your business NAP: name, address, and phone number. Your business information appears on a large variety of websites, whether you’re aware of them or not.

Yelp! and similar online websites that list businesses obtain your information, and then store it, often without updating it if you move, add a phone line, or adjust your business name.

The catch of these listings is that Google and other search engines check the consistency of your NAP across the internet — if there are any unmatched locations, an old phone number or a road name typo, your website can be flagged for being untrustworthy, and therefore lowers in rankings.

Be More Innovations has the tools needed to track where your business is listed, checking name, phone number, and updated addresses, and we continue to monitor your information and correct any inconsistencies every year.

As a local business ourselves, we understand the importance of ranking high and being a part of your trusted community.

Research shows that over half of users search on their mobile phones, and 20% of those local mobile searches result in a same day visit or purchase. The value is clearly displayed when you realize how many clients you can cater to if you appear in their mobile local search results.

We use a combination of NAP monitoring, keyword application, trending analysis, and competitor examination to boost you to the top of local rankings for your industry.

We help claim your local business listing on Google, verify ownership, and then manage and monitor the information presented and help keep it up to date.
