Inside this local SEO blog
We write this local SEO blog for owners in Albany and the Capital Region towns around it. Each post takes one question from our first calls and answers it with what the search data shows. For example, one post explains why page speed matters on a phone, while another looks at how local search drives steady business growth.
Topics also follow the Albany calendar. Snow emergencies, for instance, put hours and closure notices first, whereas the January-to-June legislative session fills downtown hotels and restaurants. Meanwhile, move-in weeks near the universities bring questions from movers and landlords.
Who these posts are written for
Most readers run one office or one shop: a dental practice on Western Ave, say, a law firm near the Capitol or a roofer working on old brick houses. Plain words matter to them, so any jargon gets a short explanation the first time it appears. And if an idea will not pay for itself in a city this size, the post says so too.
Where to start reading
Start with the post on website speed, since a slow page is often the cheapest fix a firm has. Next, Google’s free Search Console shows which searches already bring people to your site. Then, for the hands-on side, see how our local SEO service and Google Maps work fit together.
Every post is written for Albany readers by our own team, so none of them is a stock article with the city name dropped in. When a fact comes from a source, such as the census or Google’s help pages, the post also says where it came from.
