SEO stands for search engine optimisation. Search engine optimisation is the process of ‘optimising’ a website to appear in search engine results.
Local SEO is a type of SEO which focuses solely on promoting a website, business or company in local searches to local customers. Basically it’s SEO for local businesses.
For instance, if you live in Bristol and you are looking for a dry cleaner, you would probably pop the search term ‘dry cleaner Bristol’ into your phone using Google.
Google would then display it’s results which would look similar to this image.
Google typically displays a map listing 3 results. This is known as the ‘top 3’ for obvious reasons. Underneath the map pack you can also see some more typical search results from Google. Victoria Dry Cleaners is appearing as the top result in the map pack and it’s the third results in the web results. This Dry Cleaner have worked on their Local SEO to ensure they are appearing in the top spot when someone is searching for a dry cleaner.
