Mobile Devices Tied To SEO
Mobile devices and their roles in consumer’s lives has changed the evolution of search engines. The importance of local search marketing is directly tied to this growth in mobile, yet it goes beyond to impact desktop and tablet search. The search results that Google displays to you are personalized based on your location and previous browsing habits, among other factors. As mobile devices become more ingrained in our lives, consumers are more frequently turning to the search engines to find geo-based business information including reviews, directions, amenities, offers and so much more.
