Local SEO Services in the United States
The United States is the most competitive local search market in the world, and also the one with the most places to be listed. For a US small business, local SEO is as much about tidying up what already exists as building anything new.
Our office is in Amritsar, India, and we work with businesses in the United States entirely online, at the same one-time prices as everywhere else.
How local search works in the United States
American customers search with “near me” more than almost anyone, and they add a city, a neighbourhood or a ZIP code when they want to be specific. Trade vocabulary matters: people look for a contractor, an attorney, a realtor, an auto repair shop.
Competition varies enormously. A category that is wide open in a small town can be fiercely contested in a metro area, where the Map Pack changes block by block. In many trades, paid Local Services Ads also appear above the Map Pack. They are a separate Google product that we do not manage, but you should know they are there.
Citations, addresses and rules in the United States
Listings and directories worth having
- Google Business Profile, Apple Maps (through Apple Business Connect) and Bing Places
- Yelp, which also supplies data to other services
- Facebook and Nextdoor for neighbourhood visibility
- The Better Business Bureau
- Trade platforms where they fit: Angi and Thumbtack for home services, Healthgrades for healthcare, Avvo for attorneys, Houzz for remodeling
Accuracy matters more than volume. A dozen correct listings do more than hundreds of automated ones. See how local citations work.
Name, address and phone format
Use one format for the street address, including the suite number and the five-digit ZIP code, and a local number with its area code. Toll-free numbers are fine as a secondary line, but a local number supports local relevance.
Rules to be aware of
Licensed trades should show state licence numbers where the state requires them in advertising. Healthcare providers must keep review replies free of patient information under HIPAA. California residents have additional privacy rights under the CCPA and CPRA, which our privacy policy covers.
This is general information, not legal advice. Check the rules that apply to your business.
