Ever since the Covid’19 virus has struck us hard and made us stay at home during the pandemic, millions of new online businesses have emerged and are contributing to the economy. The first and foremost thing required to set up a new business online is hardcore SEO (Search Engine Optimization) done for the website or the social media platforms. Local SEO is the exercise of targeting search engines in order to increase results for sales and leads of the business. It is an extraordinary technique to upsurge the status and image of your business in the local area, markets, and neighboring areas. You can use NAP strategies to list your name, address, and phone number on various business directories and listings to promote the business among the audience. 

SEO is to online business what oxygen is to the human body, and hence now you know the significance of a well-performed SEO to enter any new market. 

In 2021, there is a greater chance for newcomers to gather their attention and get focused on more competition in business than ever because the pandemic does not seem to end any time soon. Technically speaking, brands should be more concerned over how the google algorithm works and understand the key features that will ensure how their website stays on top, only if it revolves around keywords like 'how to' or 'where is. Staying on the top searches is what you need to boost your sales weekly/ monthly, or annually. However, easier said than done, SEO trends keep changing, and here are a few tricks you should keep in mind before doing SEO on your own or when hiring one of the best digital marketing agencies to work for you.

• Voice Search

The increased number of people shifting to voice assistants like google search, Siri, and Alexa is a major change in this year’s SEO practices as people prefer voice searches over texts. Hence it is better to slowly and gradually change the pattern of how SEO has been over the years and turn it more towards text-to-speech or only speech keywords that will be used more often while searching. 

• Snippets

Upon asking google any question, there is a small box that pops up with the most relevant answer, which is called a snippet, featured by Google. This is a more convenient way of providing a user-friendly experience to the audience by Google. This is another trick that you need to tackle while working on your brand and making it more visible to your targeted audience.

• Image optimization: necessary

It is seen that brands are so focused on boosting their SEO so much that they hardly pay attention to use optimized images, which is beneficial for increasing SEO. The analysts and specialists say that visual content brings in a lot more traffic than the written content, as it helps enhance the written content and people in today’s age relate more to visuals than text.

It also presents a better image of your website and the content you sell on it. 

These few tricks will help a beginner excel in promoting their business with proper SEO practices, rather more efficiently and in a more effective manner. Not only for individuals, but even the companies should follow these tactics and offer local SEO packages that will include all these practices at very reasonable rates.
