By now you probably realize that traditional Small Business Advertising methods like Yellow Pages and Newspapers are Dead and they're NOT coming
back...
Why Must Your Local Business Listing be Properly Listed in the Local Search Engines and Directories?
Because that's where YOUR Best Customers are looking!
With newspaper circulations on a steep decline and traditional Yellow Pages almost extinct, it has reached a point where advertising in those places are a waste of your money. If people are not using those dinosaurs anymore, 'what' are they using?
Here the Facts in 2010
|
|
80% of consumers use the Internet to research products or services in their Local area.
|
|
|
Over 1 Billion Local searches are performed online each month! (and growing)
|
|
|
90% use search engines and directories to find products and services in their local market.
|
If you have been using traditional marketing for years, it is time to take a hard look at the cost, and your return. You must transition your business to the internet soon because in a few years, most newspapers will be gone, and the Yellow Pages will be entirely online.
To effectively attract new customers, you have to put your advertising where customers are actively looking. When people use the search engines to find your business you better be there.
Most People Searching for Local Businesses Online are Ready to Buy Now!
The fact is, people research and shop when they are ready to buy, or when they have to buy. The days of pushing your ads in front of people are quickly ending. Most traditional advertising mediums have lost their ability to pull customers. People go online "when" they need something.
Prospects who are looking for a business like yours in your area are also probably ready to do business and contact you right now.
If your local business listing doesn't show up on that person's local search results, you can kiss that customer goodbye and lose them to your competition that is online.
It's Like Owning Beachfront Property in Maui!
Do you think Google would place their Local Business Listing Results at the top of their search engine results page (serps) if they didn't see the huge value in them?
Having a top of the page listing on the Google Local Business search results is prime real estate,so they must think it is important.
Having your local business listing come up in the google local search results for the right keywords is the exact prime real estate you need to attract new customers!
Even better! If your local search keywords do not bring up any Pay Per Click ads your listing will actually be at the top of the Google search results! How's that for prime real estate?
Local Internet Search Marketing Does Not Require That You Have a Website!
Although we strongly urge every small business to have a website, our Local Search Domination Package does not require you have one.
You see, the local search engine and directory companies will create a business listing page for you with all your business info. If you have a website they will provide a link to it.
Despite What You May Have Heard, Local Search Marketing is NOT Free!
There are dozens of eBooks and "do it yourself" videos that tell you to do it yourself because getting listed is free. But, before you start jumping up and down cheering and scaring the neighbors, you must understand that although most of the local search engines and directories allow you to list in them for free, in the long run it is not.
Why? Because, the time it takes to get your listings in all the search engines and directories will leave you frustrated and in many cases no demonstrative results.
I have spoken to frustrated small business owners that have spent months and have only managed to get in a few directories.
First of all, what is your time worth? If your are spending hours a week trying to learn and implement the skills of Local Search Marketing, how much time are you spending on running your business?
|
|
You must know how to do keyword research.
|
|
|
You must know how to do competitive analysis.
|
|
|
You need to understand exactly how to create your business listing.
|
|
|
You need to continuously be submitting to directories.

Designing your local business listing and choosing the right places to be is critical if you want to have any chance of making page one of Google.
It is absolutely in your best interests to hire a professional.
The Cost of Hiring a Professional is Way Too High!
If you have been in business for a while, you are probably inundated with phones calls from local search professionals (actually sales reps). These reps are promising you everything in the world and trying to charge huge fees in return.
I have seen charges as high as $1,500 for set up and $400 a month for maintenance. For the average small business owner this is too expensive and you probably have no idea what they are even going to do for you.
Let me just say right up front....
... anyone guaranteeing you top rankings in Google is making false promises. No one, I repeat, no one but Google can do that!
I have been doing search engine optimization since 1995 (before Google) and it is extremely misleading to guarantee anyone top rankings.
If some Sales Rep Guarantees you top placement in Google ask him these questions:
|
|
What keywords are you targeting and what is the monthly search volume on those keywords? Many companies will guarantee you top placement for keywords that nobody uses and are easy to target.
|
|
|
If you don't deliver, will you refund all my money? It's not going to happen. Most likely they will say they will continue to work at it at no extra cost to you. What? In other words, you're screwed!
|
|
|
What exactly are you going to do? Many sales reps have no idea, yet they want you to fork over big dollars. Don't fall for the we have a team of experts that are going to work really hard for you.

Many small business owners are being misled by hustlers telling them that they have the secret formula or the magic button to getting tons of traffic. Chances are, you've been burned a few times by these people.
Unfortunately, even though the internet is the most powerful marketing tool you will ever have access to. It is also a haven for get rich quick fast schemers, and quick buck artists, hawking the latest greatest instant success program.
The Truth Is....
There is NO SECRET FORMULA or MAGIC BUTTON to Getting Tons of Internet Traffic from Search Engines!
Success comes from knowing what you're doing, and having the right systems in place to get the work done properly and quickly. SEO people that try to trick Google or take short cuts, put your
website and business in jeopardy.
If you hire a person who does not play by the Google rules, he will eventually get caught and your website could get banned or dumped to page 20 in the search results.
Make sure you know what the person or company you hire is doing before you pay them a dime.
We want you to know exactly what you're getting, how we do it, and what you should expect, without a HUGE Payment!
