“When local business owners step into the web, they become publishers, because content directly impacts the rankings, reputation, and revenue of their company. It matters tremendously. This is why both owners and local search marketers are constantly asking what they should write about,” said Miriam Ellis, Local Search Scientist at Moz. “The answer is that there are hundreds of small and large assets available to local brands that qualify as ‘content’; from what you publish on your website, to your local business listings, review responses, social postings, and so much more. It’s all content and done properly, it all contributes significantly to your success. I wrote this guide to teach them what to write and where to promote it, providing a thorough answer to this perennial, core question, all in one resource. The guide is so comprehensive that you can keep referring back to it as your business evolves through multiple stages of growth.”
