Common Local SEO Mistakes South Side Businesses Make

After working with South Side businesses, we see consistent issues. Here's what's costing you local customers:

  • Missing "South Side" in content: Your website says "Aberdeen" but never mentions "South Side". When someone searches "[service] South Side", you don't show up. We add location-specific content that matches local searches.

  • No local citations: You're not listed in local directories or your information is inconsistent. Google uses citations to verify your location—missing or wrong citations hurt your local rankings.
