Google Local Business: How to get your business to appear at the top of the local search engine results at no cost

Posted by: | Posted on: February 2nd, 2010 | 133 Comments | Posted in: Digital Marketing, Free resources, Ireland, Marketing online, More clients, Recommended resources

Last year I recorded and published a podcast about using the Google.com Local Business Centre to list your business and enhance your online visibility using this free tool.

I was recently explaining it to my client – and decided to create a short video tutorial to explain the benefits and how to get started. And I thought I would also share it here.

Your business can optimise your listing in Google Local for the key words you want to be found for when people are searching for services and products that you offer in your town or city.

In this video I cover a case study of the Westbury Hotel in Dublin – you can see how they have added photos and even a free discount coupon for people visiting their restaurant Cafe Novo.  Remember this is FREE for you to do too – and for those of you using online video you can also add video to your Google Local profile.

I made sure my business is listed in the local search results – have you done so yet?

Note – you might not want to list your business if you are operating from a home based office if you want to protect your privacy online.
