When people search for a local business in Google the first results they see is called Google Local 3 Pack.
Get Found First
Getting found in this Local 3 Pack is absolutely essential in a successful online presence as these results are clicked on 90% of the time by the searching user. When a user clicks on one of these results they will then have a few options. They can choose directions, call or visit the website. The call button only shows up when the searching users are on a cell phone.
Local 3 Pack Gets Clicked 90% of the Time
Below the local 3 pack is the actual website results from the search. Showing up as high here is also important but as you can imagine if 90% of users click on a local 3 pack result then these search results below get substantially little traffic.
In the past companies have spent huge money on getting their websites to the top of search results. The local 3 pack now changes things and most small businesses have not been educated on this. Think about how you search, most likely you use your phone and click on a local 3 pack like everyone else. So as you can imagine getting to the top of this local 3 pack has higher importance than almost everything else. it is the main generator of traffic to your website. Your website still needs to local fast (Within 2 seconds) and get their attention fast. It also needs to have calls to action which get the user to complete a form, call you or sign up for a newsletter. The goal is to capture their data so you can continue to follow up and market to them.
