Local Link Building for UK-Based Businesses: A Simple Guide

Acquiring high quality links to your website is essential to local SEO, the same as it to your other SEO efforts. Most of the techniques are similar, such as creating high quality and valuable content, promoting to relevant influencers, guest posting, and getting links on resource listings.

The difference with local link building is you want to place your links on locally targeted listings and blogs. 

Understanding the Importance of Local Link Building

Local link building involves acquiring relevant and local links to your website, driving organic local traffic, improving your ranking in localised searches and map packs. 

The good news, as a local business, is you don't need a vast number of high quality local links to rank in local results. While Google doesn't give out much information regarding ranking factors, it is believed that local link building is a ranking factor for localised search results.

How to Identify Local Link Building Opportunities

All the SEO map pack studies show one thing in common, links are a recognised ranking factor. So if you want to improve your online visibility and reach your local audience, you need a local link building strategy.
