What We Check for Local Businesses

Technical and on-page factors that directly impact your local search visibility.

LocalBusiness Schema Markup

Structured data tells Google your business name, address, phone, and hours — essential for appearing in local knowledge panels.

HTTPS & Security

Google uses HTTPS as a ranking signal. An insecure site also erodes customer trust — especially for contact forms and bookings.

Mobile-Friendliness

Local searches are predominantly mobile ("near me" searches). A non-mobile-friendly site loses the majority of local search traffic.

Title Tags with Location

Local title tags should include your service and city — e.g. "Plumber in London | Smith Plumbing". We check length and optimization.

Page Speed

Local customers searching on mobile expect fast results. We check GZIP compression, image optimization, and caching headers.

Canonical & Indexability

Misconfigured canonical tags or noindex directives can accidentally block your pages from Google. We catch these issues immediately.

Local SEO Best Practices

Local SEO is about making your business visible when people in your area search for your services. Unlike general SEO, local SEO has a strong technical component — and a free local SEO audit is the fastest way to identify what's holding you back.

The single most impactful thing you can do is implement LocalBusiness schema markup on your homepage and contact page. This structured data tells Google your exact business name, address, phone number (NAP), opening hours, and service area. Read our Schema Markup guide for implementation instructions.

Your title tags should include your location. Instead of "Best Plumber", use "Emergency Plumber in Manchester | 24/7 Smith Plumbing". This signals to Google exactly which geographic area you serve. See our title tag guide for the full formula.

Mobile optimization is non-negotiable for local businesses. Over 80% of "near me" searches happen on smartphones. If your site isn't mobile-friendly, you're invisible to the majority of local searchers. Our Mobile-First SEO guide covers everything from viewport settings to touch-friendly buttons.

Beyond your website, ensure your Google Business Profile is complete and verified. Consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) across your website, Google Business Profile, and local directories is a key local ranking signal. Our website audit checks your on-site NAP consistency via structured data.
