Google\u2019s focus in recent years has increasingly shifted towards local search, driven by the rise of mobile and location-based technologies. Embracing strategies such as top-rated listing management services<\/a> for local SEO is just as important as ever. If you\u2019re hoping to secure top placement in search results in this environment, you must understand how Google returns search results based on a user\u2019s location.<\/p>\n

\"Local<\/a><\/div>\n

Does Google Personalize Search Results Based on Location?<\/h2>\n

Yes, Google uses a person\u2019s current location to deliver more accurate search results. This approach is most apparent when searching for a service \u2013\u00a0\u201ccar accident attorney\u201d for example \u2013 without attaching a city name. In such instances Google invariably provides results featuring the local pack, and organic search results that are based on the searcher\u2019s current location.<\/p>\n

Even for a more generic term like \u201chats,\u201d the results will recognize the country and include a combination of geographically relevant stores and common sites like Wikipedia. For businesses, this typically means that every target keyword will be influenced in some way by localized results.<\/p>\n

How to Help Businesses Appear in Google\u2019s Local Search Results<\/h2>\n

As a local agency or marketer, targeting localized search results can actually deliver more targeted traffic and a higher conversion rate. Customers in your client\u2019s city can find that client\u2019s business far easier \u2013 but you must make sure their website is optimized for local searches.<\/p>\n

Why Listing Management Matters for Local SEO<\/h2>\n

Boosting local presence with business directory listings<\/a> is a strategy familiar to most digital marketers. And one could argue that Google\u2019s localized focus only adds to its importance, as a business\u2019 proximity to the searcher partly determines who gets a search placement.<\/p>\n

When users grant Google location permission, their precise location will determine the best search results. However, for those who do not give permission, Google estimates the general area (an area larger than one square mile with at least 1,000 users) using available information like IP address and previous activity, depending on preferences.<\/p>\n

Listing management influences whether a business is featured prominently within this sphere, as Google uses the data to classify a business. Listing data naturally includes the business name, address and phone number (NAP). It also uses categories, keywords and other information to present the best local results depending on the search query. And if this data is incorrect or inconsistent, Google will be less likely to give it prominence over competing businesses.<\/p>\n

Prioritizing the Google Business Profile<\/h2>\n

Listing management allows you to monitor and update many platforms, but the Google Business Profile (GBP) will inevitably take priority. Unlike some listing services, GBP requires ongoing monitoring and updating. For example, to ensure that a business\u2019 GBP data always matches our database we created the GBP Sync service within our Enhanced GBP Tool for agencies<\/a>. We also auto-reject public edits for you, avoiding unwanted profile changes.<\/p>\n

Our Review Monitoring Tool also helps you monitor and respond to reviews, and reviews often contain valuable keywords. These services work in combination to target Google\u2019s three big ranking factors \u2013 relevance, distance and prominence \u2013 so your business clients have the best chance of securing top placement in search.<\/p>\n
