How To Do SEO For Your Site Locally

Hi Everybody,
The world seems smaller because of the internet and one can easily gain the global reach for his business or company through the web world. However before promoting a site, you must analyze the geographical extent it must cover. If your business is centered around your own locality and or your city, and focus on the local customers, then it is baseless to promote the site globally. Instead of this, opt for a local promotion either with the help of a search engine optimization company or on your own. Here are some tips that would help you in doing this:

1. The most important step is to use your location into your keyword

2. Meta tags are very important when it comes to optimization of sites

3. Submit your site to the Google Places and Yahoo Local

4. Try to get backlinks with the location in your anchor text

5. You must also take submission into the local directories into consideration

6. Use social media to promote your site locally
