A recent ReachLocal survey showed 68 percent of local businesses are investing in SEO in 2016, but many lack the expertise to do it themselves. ReachLocal’s ReachSEO solution helps increase business visibility for searches with local intent, provides more search engine real estate for top business and category keywords, builds long-term brand trust, and gets business owners better ROI when used with other marketing tactics. ReachSEO, used alone or in combination with paid search, provides a local approach to getting more customers online. Additionally, when coupled with ReachEdge™, ReachLocal’s easy-to-use marketing attribution software, business owners get greater visibility into their total marketing ROI.

SEO programs coupled with search engine marketing provide a complete and complementary approach to capturing local search traffic. Google research reports an 89 percent lift in clicks when a business is found on the first page in SEO and search engine marketing programs. In addition, a dual approach allows for more cost-effective keyword strategies and more options to achieve business results. ReachLocal is an expert in both local search strategies and delivers proven results. 

“At ReachLocal, we are always innovating for our clients and staying on top of industry trends to ensure local businesses get better results from all their marketing,” said Kris Barton, ReachLocal Chief Product Officer. “ReachSEO provides cost-effective access to a strategy, service and software solution previously only found with more expensive agency approaches.”
