\npodcast I\u2019m talking with Matt Diamante, owner of a Canadian digital
\nmarketing agency called HeyTony, about all things LOCAL SEO. If you
\naren\u2019t sure where to start with SEO, this podcast episode is
\nabsolutely it. Matt and I talk through the basics and the small
\nsteps you can take today to get your retail business and website
\noptimized on Google.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nbuy, they are looking for more information, maybe they are looking
\nto do research to buy later. And if you are not showing up higher
\non Google, you aren\u2019t going to make that sale.\u201d -Matt Diamante<\/p>\n
\nGoogle Business:<\/p>\n
\nhave your business name and logo, your address, and a contact phone
\nnumber.<\/p>\n
\nwebsite (this doesn\u2019t apply to the footer). If more than one page
\non your website explains the same thing, rewrite it.<\/p>\n
\nthe better you will rank. Ask your customers to leave reviews on
\nGoogle.<\/p>\n
\nBusiness page: your business name, address, phone, description,
\nservices, photos, etc. Make sure you list ALL of your services.<\/p>\n
\nby people who have an intent to purchase (except TikTok sometimes).
\nUse social media for instant feedback from your customers (likes,
\ncomments, etc.) SEO, on the other hand, gives us delayed
\ngratification. It can take time to see that it\u2019s working; however,
\nlocally, it can work fast if you put in the work.<\/p>\n
\na free service offered by Google that helps you monitor, maintain,
\nand troubleshoot your site’s presence in Google Search results. It
\nhelps you learn and use your data.<\/p>\n
\nputting out good pieces of content – at the very least, one time a
\nmonth for retail shop owners. Answer the questions your customers
\nhave inserting your keywords, it doesn\u2019t always have to be
\nselling.<\/p>\n
