When people are asked to think about SEO, they’ll often associate the term with online businesses – companies whose sole aim is to drive potential customers to their website. In reality, SEO has many more ‘real world’ applications. When specialist SEO tactics are used to increase your local exposure, it’s referred to as ‘local SEO’.
A staggering number of people use search engines to find local businesses. In fact, 46% of all Google searches are local – and around 50% of those people are looking for contact details, opening hours, addresses or other business-specific information.
With such significant numbers of people searching for local businesses, it’s probably no surprise to discover nearly 80% of local mobile searches result in an offline purchase.
