Why Do I Need Local SEO?
The days of traditional marketing are long gone, and almost every kind of business nowadays concentrates their efforts on the online sphere. What’s important is that more and more potential customers are searching for your services within your service area. So, even if you’re still not investing in local SEO, you can be sure that your competitors are, which means that they’re already one step ahead.
Every business can benefit from local SEO, and it’s always going to be a competitive space. That’s why the Semrush team has been working hard to make Listing Management, our smart local data management solution, accessible to as many users as possible. Now it’s time for Canadian entrepreneurs to take their businesses to the next level!
In Canada, the majority of businesses are small- and medium-sized firms which are used to a highly competitive environment. Now that every business needs online visibility no matter how small or how local it is, we’re excited to offer Canadian businesses the multiple opportunities to succeed in local SEO provided by the Listing Management tool.
