1. Local SEO: get your website ranked in Google's local results

If you have a brick and mortar business, your website must be listed in the local search results for your location. If you cannot be found by potential customers, you will lose a lot of money. The local SEO tools in SEOprofiler help you to get better local rankings.

Your website in Google's local results

It's easy to check your rankings in particular locations. The Ranking Monitor in SEOprofiler enables you to track your rankings in all areas. You can specify the exact location from which your rankings should be checked (cities, zip codes, airports, etc.).

The Ranking Monitor does not only track regular listings. It also informs you about the position of your business in Google's local pack results, even if your business is listed without a website URL.

If you do business in multiple locations, you can track all the locations in one campaign.

local rankings and local SEO

All locations that are supported by Google

Different regions have different search results. For example, searchers in New York get different results for the keyword "plumber" than people in San Francisco.

The Ranking Monitor checks your rankings in 169 countries and languages. You can check your local rankings from all locations. The ranking monitor supports all cities that are also supported by Google.

The Ranking Monitor monitor enables you to track the positions of these businesses in the search results, even if Google does not show a website address.

GoogleGoogle: cleaning up Google Maps

"[We] removed more than 75 million policy-violating reviews and 4 million fake business profiles thanks to refinements in our machine learning models and automated detection systems which are getting better at blocking policy-violating content and detecting anomalies for our operators to review.

[We] took down more than 580,000 reviews and 258,000 business profiles that were reported directly to us, as we make it easier for people to flag inappropriate content."


Google: start with the most important pages for hreflang

"Google's John Mueller said on Reddit that you should start with the most important pages if you want to translate your website into different languages.

According to John Mueller, these pages 'get very little traffic, add very little value, and they add a significant overhead (crawling, indexing, canonicalization, ranking, maintenance, hreflang, structured data, etc.).'"
