Pay Per Click (PPC) Testing Enhances Local SEO Marketing Results
Our normal local SEO marketing processes includes testing the keywords, ads and landing pages using pay-per-click (PPC) advertising tools. We hike conversion and click-through rates from less than 1% to above 10%, many times above 20% for some of the keywords. This means that every marketing dollar spent in other channels after the testing results are in will be more than 10 to 20 times more effective in converting visitors into clients!
Our PPC ads appear in the top and right sections of the SERP as shown above.
Organic SEO Tops Off Your Local SEO Marketing Online Presence
The screenshot above shows the organic listings. These listings are the holy grail of search engine marketing (SEM). They are unpaid listings when someone does a search. We place your website in many of the top 10 positions. We do it through many methods like social media marketing (SMM), article marketing, Google+ marketing, video marketing and blogging. All of these tactics also elevate your brands online presence.
Manage Local SEO Citations
Local SEO marketing is heavily dependent on citations. Citations are mentions of your website on other websites, in particular websites that exist only for local company listings. When your address and phone number appear on sites like Yelp and Yellowpages.com then the search engines give you credit and rankings for it.
21st lists your website in the top and most important local citation directories as a part of our local SEO marketing efforts.
Manage Online Reviews
One of the most important factors in your local SEO marketing and rankings is managing positive reviews. You can see the reviews in the image above. 21st will make it simple to gather reviews at every customer touch point (mobile app, email, website, QR code, office computer, iPad, etc.). All customer entered reviews go to a dashboard where you have the opportunity to place the review on any of the local directories (listed below) that you want. This also allows you to push bad reviews down the line so they'll be overshadowed by positive reviews. Click for more details of our positive review management services.
