Advanced Local SEO for Mental Health

1. Does your business receive most of its sales from people who live nearby?

2. Are your goods or services town or region-specific?

If you answered Yes to either of these questions then Local SEO is a great fit for your business.

1. Do you primarily sell goods or services online to people outside your local area?

2. Do you rely on your website as your primary source of sales?

If you answered Yes to either of these questions then Organic SEO is a better fit for your business.

The primary purpose of Local SEO is to rank your Google listing higher and wider in local search results.

It's all about properly structuring data to send powerful signals to Google that your listing deserves greater authority than your competitors.

The result is more appearances in the Local 3-Pack, more traffic and more sales for you.

Local SEO has little to do with:

• Branding
• Social media posts and influencer campaigns
• Paid ads and PPC campaigns
• Offline paid ads (newspapers, etc.)
• Events and promos
• Email campaigns

These types of marketing can continue unaffected.

The ONLY conflict of interest would be if somebody is already performing Local SEO for you, at which point we would encourage you to give Moonraker a try!

Google pay-per-click (PPC) ads are a legitimate way to generate site traffic, but there are inherent disadvantages that we believe make Local SEO far more beneficial in most cases.

PPC Advantages:

• Instant visibility: Paid ads instantly get you into the 3-Pack and can result in a sales boost when done right. Unfortunately, running effective ads is much harder than it looks and there is a very good chance that inexperienced advertisers will spend a lot of money for little to no results. You can hire an agency to run ads for you, but your money will go farther when invested in Local SEO.

• Located higher than search results: This advantage is quickly shrinking, as research shows that 70-80% of users skip over paid ads and go directly to search results.

Local SEO Advantages:

• Search results convert 5.66x better than PPC: People are well aware that anybody can run ads, significantly lowering their credibility. And let's not even get started on ads for that product you purchased three weeks ago!

• Search results are not affected by ad blockers: Over 25% of people use ad blockers and this number is steadily increasing, but search results will never be blocked.

• SEO is an investment in your business: Paid ads either make you money or you may as well have thrown that cash out the window. SEO adds value over time as your rankings increase. The money you dedicate towards SEO today will pay you back for years to come.
