What we mean by “Local SEO”
Local SEO optimises your online presence to attract customers in a specific geographic area. Unlike national SEO, which targets broad keywords and large audiences, local SEO targets map results, “near me” queries and terms that include town names or postcodes.
- Google Business Profile optimisation
- Local keyword research & on‑page SEO
- Local citation and NAP consistency
- Local link building & outreach
- Technical SEO for local sites (schema, speed, mobile)
- Local content and location pages
- Reporting & conversion optimisation

Technical & Schema essentials
Structured data helps search engines and AI agents understand your page quickly. Implement LocalBusiness, Service, Article and FAQ schema via JSON‑LD in the page head or tag manager. Ensure mobile-first design, HTTPS, fast page speed and clean HTML so AI crawlers and search engines can access your content without heavy JavaScript rendering.
We provide ready-to-deploy JSON‑LD and can implement it for you, then validate with Rich Results testing and Search Console.
