Relevant and accurate Information is the key

You want your clients to see your real information, not some computer generated jargon that we hope is right, and hope has no place in a business plan.
Now, how do you know your listing(s) will stay current and relevant with this fast pace, forever changing world? Today, I want you to know how to keep yourself relevant and make sure your listings keep driving customers to your business. Items are below are crucial for a good web presence:

  1. You must realize what your key search terms are not just the name of your business but what people are actually searching for? Where do you come up? Do you come up at all? (Plumbers, Best Plumber near me, etc.)
  2. What information do you want out there about your business? Of course you want your phone number and directions to be correct, hours, website, photos of products or maybe your office, nicely wrapped vehicles, before and after photos. Make people feel like they know your business before they become a customer.
  3. A picture is worth a thousand words. People are visual and they want the nicest and best and they want it NOW! When they see your business, their first impression is right at their fingertips, if they don’t like what they see, they will scroll to the next.
  4. Opinions, everybody has an opinion. Reviews, the good and the bad, are influential to your potential customer. No matter how great you are, for some reason there are those that can’t be pleased, that hits hard when it comes to reviews. It’s personal! How do you respond to ALL reviews? You must, because the consumer is seeing how you handle the situation and value customer service. Getting notification when a review is left, so you can respond quick, is very important.
  5. Social media, is a must in today’s climate. Linking your social media and its relevance is just as important when searching. Consumers looking for “Recommendations”, and people sharing those recommendations are great referrals.
  6. Your rankings are important with search, the more relevant content you have, the better rankings you have, which means your search is higher and found much quicker.
