Testimonials
As a business owner, I can really appreciate a book like this, because it simplifies the concept of SEO... and clearly outlines what I need to know to get my company ranking in the local search results. I understand enough about the search behavior of local consumers to know that a majority of online queries for local products and services (probably 80 to 90-percent) are initiated on Google. It is vitally important to have access to tips and strategies that will help my small business be in a position to be found by those seeking the services that I offer, and this book clearly and concisely helps me understand what I need to do to make my website and the content I produce more local SEO friendly. This is an excellent, easy to consume book with tremendously valuable content from experts in the field of marketing and SEO that I trust most.
I work with a lot of small business owners and most of them just don't understand what local SEO is all about and why it's so important to the success of their business. This ebook does a great job of explaining it for business owners in a way that makes sense.
Local SEO is a must have for all small businesses. Ray and Phil have written an excellent step by step guide and hit on the most crucial elements like "What a NAP is", on-page vs off-page SEO, the importance of "social signals", and much more. They outline fundamental tactics that must be followed to get your small business on page one of Google. If you are a brick and mortar business that serves a local community, this is a fast, easy, mandatory read that should be part of your local marketing strategy.
I expected to learn something in reading this book, but I didn't realize how much I didn't know about the lesser publicized ways to boost your local SEO.
This book presents a concise and straightforward series of considerations for boosting your business's local search engine optimization.
Whether you are able to do it yourself or use this as a reference when hiring an SEO expert, you need to know the tips in this book.
This book is really good because:
- It's got a lot of relevant local SEO info
- It's short and easy to get through
I often refer back to it for tips as I'm working on my local SEO campaigns.
I usually enjoy everything put out by the Duct Tape Marketing team.
If you're looking for a quick local SEO guide or refresher, this one gets the job done quickly without any bloat.
