According to Google, searches for small, local businesses are at an all-time high. For the past 3 years searches for local businesses such as restaurants, pharmacies and more have taken the Internet by storm, especially searches from mobile devices.
Google says, “Today we are releasing a new report that shows how Americans are searching for local businesses, and I can tell you that there is tremendous momentum. In fact, we’ve seen 350 times more search interest in “local” + “near me” than there was 10 years ago.”
Over the summer of 2019, the search giant release its Google for Small Business resource offering free help for small businesses (see link below). Google will scan your website and ask a few questions to help you achieve your business goals.
For those who have been waiting on the sidelines isn’t it time you get into the game and rock out your online presence?
