If you are wondering what works for Plano SEO then take a moment to notice what gets rewarded. Go to the search engines and type in a popular search like Plano restaurants, and notice which sites get commonly rewarded. Here are a few that get rewarded with top search results during the beginning of June 2010:
- Google Maps listings with 30+ reviews (many with more than that)
- Town-mall.net
- Yelp.com
- Urbanspoon.com
- Tripadvisor.com
- Chowbaby.com
- local.yahoo.com
- Superpages.com
- Planobusinesslist.com
- a few other sites near the bottom of the rankings
Then do a search for Plano hotels, Plano apartments, Plano homes for sale, and a few other phrases which have high demand. What you are looking for are sites which get rewarded for multiple high-demand searches. Write down those sites and determine if you:
- can add content there
- can buy banner ads or other premium placement
- can place Google AdWords “Content Network” ads on the site (text or banner)
- are allowed to have people (such as loyal customers) to place reviews on your listings on those sites
- have the ability to add multimedia (images, videos, audio) to your listing
Obviously, you want your site to rank # 1 for high-demand Plano terms. Of course, you know that such a goal will take some time. In the interim, you can add your content (plus links to your site) to these currently high-ranking sites.
There will be upcoming tips on how to get listed for local events and increase your popularity regardless of your SEO ranking. In the meantime, be sure to get your content on these sites in order to “piggyback” on the popularity of those sites.
