All your efforts in promoting your business or practice's online presence will eventually increase foot traffic to your local business. Investing in local SEO must also be part of your content marketing campaigns. You can optimize your content to promote your local business through the following:
- Use local keywords used by potential patients. Tools like Google Keyword Planner and Semrush can help.
- Consider on-page SEO strategies such as clear and concise meta descriptions, keywords in your title tags, and proper headings to improve readability.
