Before anything else, let’s quickly go over why local search such a great opportunity for your business!
The fact is, if you have a small business that is struggling to get more customers in your local city and you don’t have a huge marketing budget or endless hours to learn Internet marketing, local search could be just the solution you’ve been looking for. Here’s why:
1) It ranks higher. Your local search listing will generally rank above the traditional organic search results.
2) It’s faster. It can take many months of hard work to get your website ranked on the first page of the search engines with organic search engine optimization. If you follow our system, your local search efforts should start to show results in just 5 days.
3)It’s easier. Traditional organic search engine optimization requires a lot of specialized knowledge and many hours of work to optimize your website and generate the right links to your website. Anyone with access to a computer and an internet connection can do local search.
4)It’s Free! Unlike Pay-Per-Click advertising with Google Adwords or paying a Search Engine Optimization company hundreds or even thousands of dollars every month, local search is free as long as you know how to take full advantage of it.
You may be wondering, exactly what is 5 Day Local Search anyway? In a nutshell, 5 Day Local Search is a 5 Day training program that helps you optimize a combination of online directories, and review websites that work together to help your business get found when people search for your type of business in your local community. The 800 pound gorilla of 5 Day Local Search is called “Google Places.” You can easily spot a Google Places listing because it will often be located next to a map. The majority of your time and effort will be focused on getting your Google Places listing ranked on the first page of Google’s search results for the important keywords in your industry. An added benefit is that the work you do to improve your Google Places ranking will help you to get found online in numerous other ways.
Most People think that they have to be a computer wiz with special technical skills to market their local business online. This is simply not true with 5 Day Local Search! If you can send email, search for things online and do basic functions like copy & paste, then you CAN do it yourself. Not only that…you SHOULD do it yourself. Doing it yourself will save you a ton of money and allow you to maintain control. It has been proven time and time again that businesses who do it themselves consistently outrank businesses who hire out. Why? Because no one cares about your business as much as you do.
Let’s quickly get an overview of exactly what we are going to accomplish here. Basically, marketing in the online world is the same as marketing in the offline world. It’s a popularity contest. For example, to become popular in the offline world you might go out and sign up with local phone directories, post flyers around town and try to get current customers to tell all their friends and family about your services. The online world is no different. There are online phone directories (Day 3), websites to post your digital flyers called citations (Day 4) and numerous places for current customers to leave reviews or testimonials (Day 5).
