What is Local SEO?
Local Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), is the process of improving your website’s visibility for location-based searches. It’s about making sure your business shows up when your customers are searching on Google for the services you offer in your area.
Think of it this way. When someone searches for “restaurants near me” or “dentist in Hertfordshire,” Local SEO ensures that your business pops up in these searches. This is particularly important for businesses that rely heavily on foot traffic or serve a specific area.

How it works
How does Google decide which local businesses to rank highest?
Proximity
Google uses the location of the person searching and any locations included in their search query to determine the rankings.
Relevance
How relevant is the search term to the business and the content on it’s website? We optimise and create relevant content for you.
Authority
What is the authority of the local business? Google uses various signals like reviews and links to decide a business’ authority.
