A Primer on Optimizing a Local Business in Google
[2014 Addendum: The advice in this post is still relevant even though Google Places has now become Google Plus Local.]
Until I get my ebook done which will be full of the best advice from all the best local search experts in the world, here are some slides I prepared for my local SEO/Google Places presentation to help you optimize your Google Place page and to get it to rise to the top.
Many changes have occurred since it was written, thanks to Google’s fickle nature, but most everything here is still relevant.
Enjoy and then return later for that promised Local SEO ebook.
