But does everyone in and around your town know this? Probably no! Now, how do you go about telling them? You can start by distributing pamphlets, or put up a hoarding or two, or even air an advertisement on a popular TV channel. But will they truly help? While there are only as many people who will actually take out the time to read through the pamphlet, hoardings are limited by the area they\u2019re put up in. And does it truly make sense to air an expensive ad on national television wherein more than 90% of the audience won\u2019t even visit your town in the foreseeable future?<\/p>\n

That being said, there is something that you can do which won\u2019t just let the people know of your existence but will also convince them to pay you a visit, and that too without burning a hole in your pocket! So, what is this amazing thing? The answer is – Search Engine Optimization or SEO, and in your case Local SEO.<\/p>\n

Local SEO refers to the efforts put towards optimizing your business website in a way that helps it earn the highest rank possible on Search Engine Results Page or SERP. This implies, that every time a person searches Google for a coffee shop or a caf\u00e9 in your area, your website\u2019s name will be the first or one of the first few to pop up. And this is where the magic begins. Before you know it, your caf\u00e9 will be attracting customers from all around the city, and even from outside.<\/p>\n

Keyword Research<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]A keyword is but a word or group of words that define and\/or summarize the content of your website, webpage, blog or article. Keywords help your website show up on SERPs when a user comes looking for something that you have on offer. <\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to Local SEO, Keyword research is more about understanding what exactly the potential customers may be searching the internet for, than anything else. <\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, if your coffee shop happens to be on the Upper East Side, what will your customers look for? <\/span><\/p>\n

These and other such keywords will be the most relevant to your business. The trick here is to simply understand what it is that you offer, and what will be the set of keywords that most internet users are likely to search for? <\/span><\/p>\n

To know which keywords will best serve the purpose of SEO for your insurance company, you can make use of Google Adwords\u2019 Keywords Planner, which is both a free as well as a fairly reliable tool.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]

Enhance Your Website Content<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]Once you have a better understanding of what is it that your potential customers are looking for, you ought to start optimizing your website content. However, make sure that the keywords re intelligently used, and only when and where they are a natural fit. The idea is to have a keyword rich content which attracts greater organic traffic. But, by no means does this mean that you should stuff the content with so many keywords that it loses its quality and readability. Remember, Google only appreciates and indexes high-quality and unique content. <\/span><\/p>\n

And it isn\u2019t just the content that you offer o the various pages of your site, but also as a part of your HTML elements and Rich Snippets that count.

HTML Elements<\/b><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]Title Tag – The ideal length for these varies from 55 to 60 characters. A good title tag must comprise of the name of your coffee shop as well as the city you\u2019re established in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meta Description – Usually 100-150 characters in length, the Meta Description must offer a brief overview of your shop, along with the name of your area\/city as well as a Call-to-Action.<\/span><\/p>\n

Header Tags – Generally called H1, H2, and so on these tags should be used to offer a quick insight into the website\u2019s content to the search engines.<\/p>\n

In addition, these help enhance your website\u2019s visibility on the SERPs, thus helping you improve the click-through rates.

That being taken care of, you must also take ample efforts to make your content fun and engaging, something that people want to share. This is especially important with respect to your blog. Since your business is such that it attracts more millennials and young guns than oldies, it wouldn\u2019t hurt to make your content a little hip!<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]

Create and Manage Local Profiles<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]More often than not, businesses believe that a good quality website with rich content is more than enough. Unfortunately, that isn\u2019t the case. In order for the website to be seen and recognized by the people who are on the lookout for coffee shops in your area, it is imperative for it to have extensive exposure as well. In a large majority of search results, local profiles, as well as prominent blogs, also show up in addition to websites. This implies that your local profile is as important as your website, if not more. <\/span><\/p>\n

To this end, it is recommended for you to use Local Directory References such as TripAdvisor, Yelp, and City Search amongst others. However, the most helpful here will be Google My Business, also known as Google Places. The best part about it is that it\u2019s free and is extremely effective when it comes to supporting your Local SEO efforts. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the help of such local profiles, it will be more than easy for you to display the name and location of your coffee shop, along with your website name, the services you offer as well as a brief description of your business. In addition, you can also put up your logo and some compelling images of the caf\u00e9. After all, a picture speaks a thousand words! Isn\u2019t it?<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]

Incorporate Local Structured Data<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]This refers to the use of Schema Markup, which is nothing but a code which is written with the objective to offer better, more informative results for a brand\/business\/website on SERPs. Currently, leading search engines such as Google, Bing, Yahoo!, and Yandex recognize Schema as a way to display comprehensive results that helps them in offering a better user experience.<\/p>\n

Use Social Media to Your Advantage<\/b><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”fs-m”]In the present day world, the power of social media is truly astounding.
