At Monster Sites, we offer a full range of local SEO services to help your business succeed online. Whether you're a small local shop in Bristol or a growing business in Bath, we’ll develop a custom strategy that fits your goals and budget.

​

1. Keyword Research & Optimization

​

The foundation of a successful local SEO campaign is understanding which keywords your customers are using to find businesses like yours. We conduct thorough keyword research to identify the most relevant local search terms, such as “best web design in Bristol” or “SEO services near Bath.”

• Keyword Research: We discover the most valuable search terms for your industry and location.

• On-Page Optimization: We optimize your website’s content, meta tags, headers, and URLs to target local keywords.

• Content Creation: We create SEO-optimized content that appeals to both search engines and your local audience, ensuring your website ranks for relevant terms.

​

2. Google My Business Optimization

​

A critical component of local SEO is optimizing your Google My Business (GMB) profile. This free tool helps your business appear in local search results, especially on Google Maps. A well-optimized GMB profile can significantly increase your chances of showing up in the “Local Pack”, the top three local search results displayed on Google.

• GMB Setup & Verification: If you don’t already have a GMB profile, we’ll help you set it up and verify it.

• Profile Optimization: We optimize your GMB listing with accurate business information, high-quality photos, services, and keywords.

• Review Management: We help you gather and manage customer reviews, a critical factor in local rankings and trust-building.

​

3. Local Link Building & Citations

​

Building authority through local citations and backlinks is essential for improving your website’s local search rankings. A citation is any mention of your business’s name, address, and phone number (NAP) on the web, and local backlinks come from trusted websites in your industry or location.

• Local Citations: We ensure your business is listed accurately on key local directories such as Yelp, Bristol 247, Bath Business Directory, and more.

• Backlink Building: We build high-quality, local backlinks from relevant websites, blogs, and news outlets to improve your website’s authority.

• NAP Consistency: We audit your NAP information across the web to ensure it’s consistent, boosting your credibility with search engines.

​

4. On-Page SEO & Content Optimization

​

Your website needs to be optimized for both search engines and user experience. We make sure every element of your website is working to drive local traffic and convert visitors into customers.

• Location-Specific Pages: We create and optimize location-specific landing pages for your business (e.g., Wix Website Design in Bristol), targeting local keywords.

• Meta Tags & Alt Text: We optimize meta titles, descriptions, and image alt texts with local keywords to improve rankings.

• User Experience (UX): We ensure your site is easy to navigate, loads quickly, and is mobile-friendly, which improves both SEO and user engagement.

​

5. Review & Reputation Management

​

Online reviews play a significant role in local SEO rankings. Businesses with more positive reviews are more likely to rank higher and attract more customers. We help you develop strategies to gain and manage reviews, building trust and authority with local customers.

• Review Solicitation: We create strategies to encourage your satisfied customers to leave positive reviews.

• Review Monitoring: We monitor reviews across platforms like Google, Facebook, and Yelp, helping you maintain a positive online reputation.

• Responding to Reviews: We assist in crafting responses to both positive and negative reviews, showing your commitment to customer satisfaction.
