The first place most people turn to when looking to buy a product or service is Google.

82% of all product/service purchases begin online.

The question is.. When they search for services like yours – will you be there? Or are you stuck in the backwoods of the internet, the best kept secret no ones ever heard of. We’ve seen so many great offline businesses over the years be completely invisible online. Even in spite of the fact they’re actually very well respected in their industry and their clients love them. Problem is, being at the top of the rankings doesn’t happen by accident.

Sure you might get lucky and rank in some cases, but that will not last.

Sooner or later, the competitor who decides to go hard at SEO will come and take your lunch – because they’re deliberately trying to get to the top of search results and you’re just there because you may have built your site many years before them etc. The first part is trying to rank highly, the second part (and the harder part) is staying there.

Do you think if you knock your competitor off the top of the search results, they’ll take that lying down?

Of course not.

They’ll notice the drop in phone calls and website visits.

Then they’ll start the search to hire someone to get back what they once had. They may even end on a site just like this one!

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), and especially Local SEO, is crucial for any business who wants to be visible to people searching for their product or service.

What makes Local SEO special is that these people are already much further down the sales funnel, they’re practically in buy mode and now selecting who they’ll go with.
