  • Hi guys, its Brandon, from www.soldwithvideo.com and today I want to show you what every local

  • business should be doing to market their business online and dominate the first page of Google.

  • Butll also show you the top 2 mistakes that local businesses are making with their

  • online marketing today. Ok, so letís jump into the top 2 mistakes

  • that most local businesses are making with their online marketing today.

  • Mistake #1: They don't think online marketing is important!Well let me tell you somethingÖ

  • Anytime I need to find a business in my area whether it is a coffee shop, a restaurant,

  • a tile store, a plumber or some kind of contractorÖ It doesnít matter! I always do a search on

  • Google to see all of the local businesses in my area and most people do the same. And

  • if youíre not on Google, then youíre missing out on a lot of free business and youíre

  • probably giving it to your competition.

  • Mistake #2: Most local business spends so much time and money trying to make their websites

  • rank number one for their desired keywords.

  • And yeahÖ Thatís great if you can do it but itís not completely necessary. And you

  • may be thinking,

  • ìWell Brandon, you just said online marketing is so important

  • Well yeah, it is so important, but you donít need to keep going until youíre number one

  • in Google. As long as you are above five and in the Google Places listings then youíre

  • doing just fine and Iím about to show you exactly what I mean.

  • Alright guys, Iím about to give you the biggest secret for local businesses to dominate the

  • first page of Google. Are you ready for this? What most people donít realise is that there

  • are other ways of getting on the first page of Google, other than using your website and

  • Iím about to show you the top 5 ways of doing this.

  • Method #1: Now this is a method that weíve already talked about but it is the process

  • of getting your website ranked in Google. Itís called website SEO. Letís say you own

  • a plumbing business in Los Angeles. Every time someone types in ëPlumber in Los Angelesí

  • or ëPlumbing in Los Angelesí, youíre always going to want your website to come up on Google,

  • right? Well you can get your website ranked and once

  • you have your website ranked, people can go on your website, see your contact information

  • and see what your business is all about. Now the mistake that we mentioned before is that

  • people keep going and going and going until they are number 1 in Google. You donít have

  • to be number one in Google and as long as you are within the top 5 or above the Google

  • Places listings, youíre doing just fine and that is why we are going to go onto method

  • number two.

  • Method #2: Google Places. When you do a search normally, youíll see that Google Places has

  • a whole list of businesses in your area. You want your business to appear in those listings.

  • So all you need to do is go to Google. Fill out a Google Places listing and list your

  • business. Now if you have a website and a Google Places listing, you can potentially

  • take up two spots in Google anytime someone does a search in your area. The only problem

  • with Google places is that you need a real address, so if you own an online business

  • or something else, you need to find a real address that you can put downÖ Otherwise

  • Google will not accept your listing. So as long as you have an address, you can always

  • fill out a Google Listing spot.

  • Method #3: Alright, method #3 ñ video SEO. This is the process of getting your video

  • made, advertising your business and services and getting it ranked in Google for certain

  • key words. So if you owned a coffee shop or restaurant and you get a video made advertising

  • your restaurant or coffee shop then you can get it ranked in Google for certain keywordsÖ

  • Like: ëCoffee Shop in Los Angelesí or ëRestaurant in Los Angelesí. And this way if you have

  • your website ranked, your Google Places and your video ranked, you are now taking up three

  • spots on the first page of Google.

  • Now video ads and video SEO are services that we offer at Video SEO and we guarantee that

  • weíll get you on the first page of Google for all of your local keywords.

  • step by step guide on our website explaining what you need to do to get your video ranked

  • on Google and you can access it by clicking the link below this video and if you have

  • any questions ñ feel free to ask.

  • Method #4: This is the trickiest method and the method that most people donít even realise

  • they can do. Go to Google and do a search for businesses in your area. So if you own

  • a coffee shop or a running store, type in ërunning store in Los Angelesí or if youíre

  • in Bolder, ërunning store in Bolderí ñ whatever and see what listings come up. Now

  • go through the listings and if you see a ëYellow Pageí or a ëYelpí kind of directory sort

  • of sites. Create a profile on those sites and try to get ranked on those sites as well.

  • So go to ëYellowPagesí and try to be number 1 in ëYellowPagesí, number 1 on ëYelpí

  • or whatever directory site there is that comes up on the first page of Google. This way if

  • someone does a search on Google for your site, they are going to see your website coming

  • up, your Google Places coming up, your video coming up and then they are going to go to

  • ëYellowPagesí or ëYelpí and then they are going to see you at the top there also.

  • So that is four different ways that you can dominate the first page of Google right there.

  • Method #5: Alright, Google Adwords. You can actually pay Google to put a search for your

  • result for your desired keyword. So if youíre trying to get ranked or seen for plumbing

  • service in Los Angeles or running shop in Bolder, you can actually buy an ad and place

  • it on Google for anytime someone searches those keywords.

  • Yeah this is a paid service but you only pay when someone clicks on the ad and that means

  • you are only paying when someone actually sees your website or whatever your ad was

  • linking to. Now these are five different ways that you can get on the first page of Google

  • and really dominate the search results and itís so effective that I encourage every

  • single local business to do this.

  • Now let me give you a little example: If Iím looking for a tile contractor or a lawyer

  • or a certain retail store in my area and I go to Google and type in ëTile Contractor

  • in my Areaí and I see the result number one: ëBobís Tile Contractorí but right below

  • it I see ëJoeís Tile Contractorí but I also see that Joeís Tile Contractor also

  • has a video on the first page of Google and Google Places on the first page and an Adwords

  • going and then I then see a ëYellowPagesí listing below and I click on that and I see

  • ëJoeís Tile Contractorí at the top. You better bet your ass that Iím going to call

  • Joeís Tile Contractor! Iím not going to go call Bob! Yeah he has the number one spot

  • in Google but who gives a crap! When I see five different results on Google

  • for Joeís Tile Contractor, you better bet Iím going to realise that he is a top quality

  • tile contractor and really knows what heís doing and this is the same for any business.

  • It doesnít matter if you are a tile contractor or you own a coffee shop or a running store,

  • or youíre a lawyer or you own a restaurant or whatever ñ any local business will always

  • see a benefit of having five spots on Google.
