Atlanta, GA - Feb 10, 2024

As the digital landscape continues to evolve, staying ahead of emerging trends in search engine optimization (SEO) is crucial for businesses looking to thrive in today's competitive market. Recognizing the importance of local SEO for Atlanta businesses, iBoost Web is proud to announce its latest initiative aimed at providing expert insights into emerging trends that can significantly boost the online visibility and success of businesses in the Atlanta area.

With over 85% of searches on Google having local intent, local SEO has become crucial for businesses looking to connect with customers in their area. iBoost Web has been helping businesses in Atlanta with their local SEO efforts for over 25 years, and has witnessed the local SEO landscape evolve significantly over the years.

According to Eyyup Ozdemir, founder of iBoost Web, some of the key local SEO trends that Atlanta businesses should focus on in 2024 include:

Leveraging Google Business Profile: Having a complete and optimized Google Business Profile is essential for any local business. Ensuring key details like business name, address, website, phone number, opening hours, photos etc. are accurate and regularly updated can help boost local SEO. Adding services, specialties, attributes, FAQs and posting offers helps customers find and engage with the business profile.

Focusing on Local Link Building: Building high-quality local links from directory listings, local news sites and community pages helps establish domain authority and local relevance for Google. Creating and updating listings on key local directories like Yelp, YellowPages, Facebook and industry-specific sites is crucial.

Optimizing for Local Pack: With 46% of searches on mobile resulting in calls to businesses, getting ranked in the Local Pack for relevant searches can directly lead to more calls. Optimizing landing pages for keywords that trigger the Local Pack can help drive more calls and conversions.

Leveraging Local Content and Reviews: Creating locally-optimized landing pages and blog posts focusing on terms and topics relevant to local customers can attract more organic search visibility. Similarly, getting more positive online reviews on Google, Facebook and industry forums improves local ranking and credibility.

Analyzing Location Data: Detailed analysis of customer location data from sources like Google Analytics helps identify where the business is getting most of its customers from. This allows for targeted optimization of pages and content for those specific regions and local demographics.

Adapting to Voice Search: With the rise in voice searches, optimizing content for long-tail, natural language voice queries can help drive more traffic. Focusing on enriching landing pages with audio/visual content improves voice search results.

Utilizing Local Schema Markup: Adding schema markup like LocalBusiness, Event, FAQPage to website pages helps search engines better understand the content and display it prominently for relevant searches. This improves click-through rates and traffic.

Leveraging Google Maps: Having a Google My Business listing with complete details helps get the business location pinned on Google Maps for relevant local searches. Users can find directions, call or get directions to the business directly from the map results.

Focusing on Mobile-First Indexing: With mobile usage dominating, Google has shifted to a mobile-first indexing system. Optimizing website speed and user experience on mobile has become necessary for local SEO success.

Advertising Locally: Geo-targeted Google Ads, Facebook Ads and other paid campaigns focused on reaching local audiences can complement SEO efforts and drive additional traffic and conversions.
