5 Ways To Rank Outside Of Your Physical Location In Google Places

5 Ways To Rank Outside Of Your Physical Location In Google Places | DV8 Digital Marketing Tips and Insight | Scoop.it
One of the more desperate requests I get from clients interested in Local Search is wanting to rank well in Google for local queries when they don’t have a physical location in the searched city.

Level343's curator insight, May 14, 7:54 PM

For businesses that have service areas, Google throws them a bone by allowing them to designate a service area in the Google+ Local/Places Dashboard:

 

“Businesses that operate in a service area, as opposed to a single location, should not create a listing for every city they service. Businesses that operate in a service area should create one listing for the central office or location and designate service areas.”

 

But, more often than not, this can be an exercise in futility as setting a service area in a competitive industry doesn’t seem to be much help.

So, what can you do?

The Future Of SEO in a Socially Driven World

The Future Of SEO in a Socially Driven World | DV8 Digital Marketing Tips and Insight | Scoop.it

If SEO is dead, social media will be, too, in another five years.

 

In today’s search world, there’s a lot of talk about how social is “taking over,” how “content is king,” and how search engine optimization is “dead” – with search updates like Penguin and Panda hitting the final nails on the coffin. Sounds very dramatic, doesn’t it?

 

Yes, social is more significant than ever. But, it is too early to draw any conclusions about the death of SEO based on the patterns that we’re seeing. If anything, what we’re seeing today are the after effects of a healthy transition.
