Local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in 10 Simple Steps

Learn the simple steps to take to get your local business to the first page of Google.

This is my first course published on Udemy and it covers Local Business SEO with a 10-step approach that gives you a crash course in the most important elements of organically ranking your local business on the first page of Google, Yahoo and Bing search engines.

I’ve broken down the fundamentals by steps on a ladder and the higher you climb to closer you will become to seeing the view the top. Search engine optimization is only getting more complicated and this local business SEO course is designed to educate you so that you can intelligently speak and implement strategies that are known to work today and looking into the future.

I do plan on being involved with the students in this course (e.g. answering questions / holding live session) so please feel free to ask any questions. Thanks – Raleigh
