Google Search for "best online agency in Melbourne"

SEO and search is one of the most powerful things any businesses can invest in.

Just think, when you have a problem or you want to find something local, most of times what do you do?

82% of internet users use Search Engines.

In particular, Google Local Maps can help many small business owners on the potential increase of traffic and sales.

“Increasingly, your customers find you first on the internet and then visit your store in real life. Besides general SEO to be sure they can find your web site, it’s vital your business shows up on search engine maps.

When people search the internet for local businesses and put a city or place name with a search term, they’ll see a map at the top of the list. It will show local businesses and link to their web site. If you click on the map it will take you to a Google Maps search.”

So how do you do?

1) Watch the video below explaining how to add your business to Google Local Business Centre

2) Get a Google account at the Google Local Business Center

3) Create a detailed listing with your own categorie and your own name. Don’t try to outsmart unless you know what you are doing.

4) Upload Videos, images and all information you can.

5) A good trick is to insert your telephone number with the name of your business!

6) Encourage Reviews on your website, on your communication, talk to your clients, friends and ask them to review.

7) Resist he temptation of self / fake reviews (unless you know what you’re doing). It’s not the best thing and can cause you serious trouble.
