The “Big 3″ of Local Search
Each month, online consumers perform over 3 billion local searches for nearby products and services. And with the majority of these searches done in what we like to call “The Big 3″ or Google, Yahoo! and Bing, it is very important to make sure that your business is listed in the local versions of these major search engines. This will ensure the greatest visibility for your business because the local listings of these search engines show up at the top of each of their searches, if the consumer types in a local phrase like coffee shop tyler tx.
Here are examples of what these searches look like in each of the “Big 3″ search engines:
Bing Local For Tyler Texas
Google Local for Tyler Texas
Yahoo! Local For Tyler Texas
As you can see, the local listings that are placed, managed and verified with these search engines get the top placement. Now, we know that most small business owners don’t have extra time to manage their online local listings, which is why at Texas Biz Solutions, we place, manage and verify these local listings for our small business clients. Our process requires no work on the business owner’s part, except verifying that their information is correct. After that, you can rest assured that your business will be placed at the top when online consumers are searching for you on Google, Yahoo! and Bing.
