WOODLAND HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ReachLocal Inc. (NASDAQ:RLOC), a leader in powering local online marketing for small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs), today announced ReachSEO. The new offering helps SMBs drive more organic search traffic to their websites powered by ReachEdge, a marketing automation platform designed specifically to convert those visitors into leads and sales. ReachSEO leverages industry best-practices in local SEO and ReachLocal’s deep proprietary data on keyword effectiveness gained through its decade of experience building highly effective SMB paid search marketing campaigns.
Combined, ReachSEO and ReachEdge provide SEO, a smart website and lead management that all work synergistically. The result is enhanced organic visibility, brand footprint and reputation; an increase in visitors and targeted conversions; and insights into which marketing channels generate the most customers. In addition, this combination enables customers to know exactly which calls, emails and forms come directly from their SEO efforts.
“Many SMB websites we see are out-of-date and not optimized on search engines, social media and business directories for discovery by consumers. Without that optimization, businesses are missing the reach needed to increase contacts and transactions,” said Chief Product Officer of ReachLocal, Kris Barton. “Together, ReachSEO and ReachEdge provide an integrated, symbiotic offering that drives SMB visibility, lead tracking and conversions, making ReachEdge more powerful than ever before.”
