Strategy 3: new local results
Place page helps consumer learn more about a local business
Why? How?
While a business can claim their Place page, they don’t own it. Google aggregates their bus. info, content & reviews from across the Web and…
• Displays much of the content on the Place page
• Uses the content, including several new factors, to determine rank in local searches

• You control the cost/volume of traffic and only pay for performance
• Have a mobile-enabled site
• Optimize it for mobile search (GPS data, local phone #, etc.)
• Ask happy customers to give you reviews while they’re at your business
• Claim and update your Place page
• Invest in content marketing – posting quality content on many places across the Web powers search discovery
• Implement social media marketing to build a strong group of fans and followers which can influence your search rank
