Citation Management

Claiming your citations is one of the biggest and most important actions you can take when you’re trying to ramp up your local SEO efforts.

If you fail to claim your local listings, you can lose tons of valuable site traffic, and more importantly, sales. Chances are your competition has already claimed their local listings and failing to claim yours can be a huge thumbs down to users.

Local citations make it easy for shoppers to find information about your business like where your storefront is located and how they can contact you. Your citations make a user’s life easier by providing them with all the information they need to contact, visit, or purchase from your business.

Your citations refer to all the places that your business appears, like local business directories, apps, social platforms, and more. These may also be known asbusiness listings.

Below you can see the Google Business Profile listings (formerly known as Google My Business), or local citations, for the keyword “wellness spas in Pittsburgh.”

With our client-managed local SEO platform, LocalFX, you’ll have access to the automatic citation claiming and management across all of our in-network references.

These locations include:

1. Optimize citation categories for SEO
2. Optimize citation descriptions for SEO
3. Create Google Business Profile promotional posts for all locations

Review management and development functionality

Reviews are crucial to your local business, whether they’re positive or negative. It’s extremely important to interact with your reviewers to make them feel comfortable, understood, and heard — even if they review is less than accurate.

When youreply to positive reviews, you show those users that you value their opinion and appreciate them taking the time to provide a positive review. It also shows potential customers that you are consistently in touch with your satisfied customers and love to keep an open dialogue.

尽管它可能不是那么简单回复positive reviews, replying to negative reviews is just as important — if not more important. When someone provides a bad review of your products or services, don’t panic. Even the best businesses get a few bad reviews!

最重要的是保持冷静。你的网友ld calmly and professionally respond to the negative review with compassion and action. Let them know that you value their opinion, and if it’s something that happened on your end, offer to make it right. Whatever you, never blame the customer.

Customers love great customer service, and this is one way to provide it to your customers.

With the LocalFX platform, you’ll have 24/7 access to the review tracking dashboard, which helps you track reviews that come in about your business. You’ll even get notifications for every review or social interaction that comes through on all of your tracked profiles.

Keep in mind that in order to track your reviews, you’ll have to authenticate your profiles.

The best part? You’ll be able to respond directly to reviews and mentions right from our LocalFX dashboard.

Reporting

Keeping track of everything that occurs within your marketing campaign is crucial to its success. Without reporting and analytics, you’ll never be able to track what’s going wrong, or where you can make improvements.

With LocalFX, you’ll always have on-demand access to the reporting dashboard to stay on top of your local SEO campaign.

Keep in mind that in order to see your reports, you’ll have to authenticate your profiles.

You’ll be able to view reports for one location, or across all locations, and you’ll be able to see important information including:

1. Profile views
2. Website visits from local profiles
3. Phone calls
4. Direct requests

This information helps you gain insight into the success of your current campaign, and where you might want to make changes to increase the effectiveness.

For example, if you’re not getting as many phone calls as you’d like, you might take action and insert “Call now” buttons on important pages of your website.

SEO ranking tracker

SEO ranking tracker is a proprietary element of our LocalFX interface that helps you to fine-you’re your local SEO campaign. This helps give you specific measurements of different elements of your campaign so that you’re always in the know.

Here’s what it measures:

1. Rising keywords (must manually add to track)
2. Declining keywords
3. Google local rankings
4. Google organic rankings
5. Bing search rank

The info provided by the SEO ranking tracker is equally important as your reports, since they provide insight into what you could change about your local SEO campaign to make it even more successful.

For example, if your Google local rankings are falling off the board, it might be time to turn off the heat on your local SEO. This could mean creating more content, targeting more keywords, or just sprucing up your current campaign.

As a whole, our client-managed local SEO services allow you to take control of your local SEO and track your success through a proprietary platform that can help you improve your campaign.
