Importance of Customer Reviews on Google Places Listings

Google Places ReviewsGoogle Places Customer Reviews

Google Places listings have been incorporated to Google's organic search results that's why a Google Places listing is now more important for businesses. Don't be left out by competitors. If your Google Places listing is invisible on Google's search results then you are invisible to others and customer prospects.

Google values the trustworthiness of a business listing. Trust can be accomplished thru customer reviews. If you are wondering why your Google Places business listing doesn't have a good ranking then check your listing again. Your business listing might be missing some customer reviews or don't have it at all.

Customer reviews are important factors for a good Google Places ranking. Both positive and negative feedback can be helpful for a business. This will show the strength and weaknesses of your business. Think of all feedback as an opportunity for your business to improve customer satisfaction and for it to grow.

Whenever you have new customers, tell them that you have a Google Places business listing and you would appreciate it if they would post feedback or testimonials about your company's services. You don't have to pay them or offer them anything. Tell them to be honest and straightforward so that you can improve your services.

Google Instant's Effect on SEO

Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. This means that you can scan a results page while you type. Seeing results as you type helps you formulate a better search
term by providing instant feedback. You can now adapt your search on the fly until the results match exactly what you want.

How will it affect a website's SEO? This is what a true SEO Professional would be thinking. Will it affect a website's ranking and traffic from Google search? This can only be determined by site metrics and monitoring the quality of traffic that comes from Google.

User searches are much faster because of Google Instant. Evaluating the top keywords / key phrases suggestions for searches will be the SEO professional's job. Long tail keywords and top one to three keyword rankings will gain more importance because of Google Instant. SEO firms and freelancers will be more busy these days optimizing sites for top keyword and Google Instant placements.

I guess SEO will become more important and this will mean more projects for SEO service providers.

Search Engine Optimization Services

Search Engine Optimization

SEO is an acronym for "search engine optimization" or "search engine optimizer." SEO is the process of improving the visibility of a website or a web page in search engines via the "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results.

Deciding to hire an SEO professional is a big decision that can potentially improve your site and save time, but you can also risk damage to your website and online reputation. Make sure to research the potential advantages as well as the damage that an irresponsible SEO firm or freelancer can do to your site.

Many SEO companies and consultants provide useful services for website owners, including:

* Review of your website content, navigational elements, and linking structure
* Technical advice on website development: for example, web hosting, page redirects, error pages, use of CSS and JavaScript
* Content development
* Management of online business development campaigns
* Keyword research and keyword competitor analysis
* SEO training
* Expertise in niche markets and geographies.


Keep in mind that the Google search results page includes organic search results and often paid advertisement (denoted by the heading "Sponsored Links") as well.

If you're thinking about hiring an SEO Expert / SEO Consultant, the earlier the better. A great time to hire is when you're considering a site redesign, or planning to launch a new site. That way, you and your SEO can ensure that your site is designed to be search engine-friendly from the bottom up. However, a good SEO can also help improve an existing site. Outrank your competitors now thru 1st page rankings of your target keywords and get more sales and conversions by hiring an SEO Expert.

Google and the other major search engines change their keyword ranking algorithms from time to time. What you think will work for your website's SEO may not work tomorrow or the next month. With Google's Panda updates, a lot of websites were penalized and disappeared from Google's top search result pages. Because of low quality and duplicate content detected on these websites, these sites were penalized and their keyword rankings dropped.

You will need a Google SEO Expert that studies these algorithm changes and adapt these changes to succeeding SEO campaigns in order to comply with the Google Panda site quality requirements.
