More Local Content
How will anyone or any search engine for that matter know that you’re local if you don’t talk about it. On your website or blog start talking about what’s going on in your city. If you have to create a buzz, heard of something new or bizarre, blog about it or write an article commenting on it. Content is always king, and the more of it the better. Just keep in mind that with local advertising you want to keep your city and state keywords in your titles and include them a few times in your text.
