The Search Is Now Over - Google Local Pages Makes It Easy For You

A big change occurred in the later part of 2010 in how Google handles local searches. For several years it had pointed out that one in five of the lookups people did on their Google search were locally driven. Whilst people required specific information about a huge number of different topics, a big minority were seeking local information, often in the form of locating their local butcher shop, baker and candlestick manufacturers. Google has long been testing its mapping capabilities and Gps system along with its superior access to the universe of data online. Today, Google can identify the physical location of your PC whenever you browse. It also knows the physical locations of all the businesses in its data base. Subsequently, it can plot their relative proximity to you when you (or a potential customer) try a search. Google has made its way into the behemoth it is by stressing one specific goal: providing the searcher with the most appropriate information possible in response to their search. Google Local Places is only one more major step they have taken to take control of the search market, by giving its users the appropriate information they want. This has been an evolving functionality. Until lately, if somebody searched for a "chiropractor" on Google, or any other search engines, they would get millions of possible results. Page one of results might exhibit a national chiropractor institute, or perhaps individual firms in New York or Los Angeles. Rarely would the searcher see a result from their immediate area. This caused the individual seeking to change their search to something like, "chiropractor, Minneapolis." When they did that, the results were far better. Websites would be outlined that included both terms, and therefore more relevant to the Minneapolitan who was looking for a chiropractor. The entire industry had popped up called Search Engine Optimization or "SEO" to help organizations win the battle to appear on that first page of Google results. I as well as other SEO experts encouraged businesses to get their web sites to appear for local terms using, 'long tail geographical keywords.' This is why I named my consulting business, Minneapolis Internet Marketing Consultant and picked a url for my web site of MinneapolisInternetMarketingConsultant dot com. It did wonders for me and also for many organisations. Now those of us in the industry know a number of additional steps which a business could take to get their web site ranked at the top of the search engine results. These fit in two general categories, on page and off page factors. These still matter when a business chooses to get itself or a product range rated in the organic results on Google and the other search engines. (Organic results are the natural search engine results which Google finds for any given search as opposed to the paid adverts.) They remain particularly relevant to non local businesses, national brands, etc which cannot take advantage of the local internet search gambit discussed here. These are beyond the scope of this report. Generally, local businesses could get on the first page of Google results simply by paying attention to the important points I will be outlining in the next pages. They still remain powerful and important in highly competitive fields and markets. For the majority of "main street businesses, mastering Google local places will be enough to help you get the lion's share of the available visibility in your industry. Now the question is how to get on Google maps. That's another story in this continuing series.
