<br />
Because a lot of people use search engines to look for products and services, it’s a must for businesses to have a website and build their online presence. While traditional marketing is still used these days, we can’t deny that internet marketing is also becoming more essential as technology is increasingly integrated in our lives. <br />
<br />
If you want to take advantage of internet marketing for your brand or business, this is for you—<b>a step-by-step guide on how you can create a website that will standout online</b>. <br />
<br />
This guide is not something that you often see in other websites or blogs. I suggest that you <b>bookmark this page</b>, so that you can refer to this each time you need to. <br />
<br />
<h2>
1. Choosing a Domain Name</h2>
Domain name plays an important role for your business, because this is an essential element for your brand identity to stand out.<br />
<br />
Generic terms for your domain like <i>“mybusiness.com”</i> are not enough to make your brand standout. That’s why you should put careful thought on choosing a domain name. <br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Unique but relevant to your business</i></span></h3>
Don’t compromise on relevance just so you can have a unique brand name.<br />
<br />
For instance, don’t use <i>“A Touch of Heaven”</i> if your business is a restaurant. But if you own a spa, then go for it. If you own a bistro or a food house, you can use <i>“Foodiefied”</i> because it clearly states and signifies that your restaurant is the perfect spot for foodies.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Go for a domain with a strong recall</i></span></h3>
While it’s important to choose a unique domain name, don’t overdo it. Don’t make it long, hard to pronounce, and difficult to remember. Let’s say you’re leaning into <i>“A Touch of Heaven”</i>, a previous example I mentioned. Instead of that, why not use <i>“Heaven’s Touch”</i> to make it easier for people to recall.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Make sure that the domain you choose is not similar with an existing one.</i></span></h3>
Choose at least 10 domain names to make sure that you can pick at least one, because it’s most likely that not all domain choices you listed are available. <br />
<br />
First, search them one by one in Google and remove domain names that are already taken or are similar to an existing website. Of course, you wouldn’t want another website to land on the first page of the search engine page results when someone searches for the domain you chose. <br />
<br />
Go to domain name registrars like GoDaddy and check with them if your sorted choices are still available. <br />
<br />
If you’re left with no choice and it becomes challenging to think of a domain name, you can get ideas from websites that offer brand names like brandlance.com, youbrand.com, and <a href="https://www.shopify.com.ph/tools/business-name-generator" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Shopify’s business name generator</a>. <br />
<br />
<b>Here’s an example. </b><br />
<br />
When I searched <i>“Foodified”</i> on Google, I found that there’s no one using the domain name. However, when I checked with GoDaddy, foodified.com is already purchased, so I would think that I don’t have a choice but to choose one from the suggestions. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPtrJfN6qjSEd9vYAArzsBDEHJ_iUzDG1aa_yyNOUOB9gUOVbk5Wbb1aGPVRYtpBntpm3iECWaFP1G2-e5-pR0rc_tDuyF0aVJ0k9eGlYVJaiPx8xXb5Jjj1IxMQ6ECJ8_ZuI72Hm_G40/s1600/foodified.com+is+taken.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="godaddy" border="0" height="104" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPtrJfN6qjSEd9vYAArzsBDEHJ_iUzDG1aa_yyNOUOB9gUOVbk5Wbb1aGPVRYtpBntpm3iECWaFP1G2-e5-pR0rc_tDuyF0aVJ0k9eGlYVJaiPx8xXb5Jjj1IxMQ6ECJ8_ZuI72Hm_G40/s640/foodified.com+is+taken.PNG" title="godaddy" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
But what if none of the suggestions appeal to me? I would just resort to use <i>‘thefoodified.com’</i> because it’s available on GoDaddy (as of August 17, 2016), and it still doesn’t appear on the first page of Google search results. It would be of great advantage for me if I use this domain for my food business.<br />
<br />
Remember, domain names expire and have to be renewed every year. That’s why it’s advisable to auto-charge the renewal fee on your credit card or debit card for convenience. <br />

<h2>
2. Installing WordPress</h2>
If this is your first time to launch a website, it would be likely that you’ll get confused with the next step that you’re about to take. That’s why, I decided to provide a simple analogy of the three elements you need: <b>the domain name, hosting account, and content manager system (CMS)</b>, which is WordPress. <br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The <b>domain name</b> is like a folder on your computer. You need to name it properly so that you can easily identify its contents.</li>
<br />
<li><b>Web hosting</b> is like your computer’s storage. This is the space where you put your files.</li>
<br />
<li><b>WordPress</b> is like your computer that you can use to modify the files in your folders. With this, you can add content, change file names, and remove elements that you no longer need.</li>
</ul>
<br />
Now that you have a basic understanding of how these elements work, let’s go into WordPress so that you can start on designing your website and adding content in it. <br />
<br />
There are times when GoDaddy offers web hosting services along with a free domain name. Just do a search in Google to determine if they have an on-going promo for this. As far as I know, they have an affordable economy package. <br />
<br />
If you already bought web hosting and domain, go to this page to learn how to install WordPress in your hosting account: <a href="https://ph.godaddy.com/help/install-wordpress-834" target="_blank">https://ph.godaddy.com/help/install-wordpress-834</a><br />
<br />
Once done, log in to your WordPress dashboard panel. Just follow the instructions provided. Make sure that search engines are blocked from indexing your website. Click <i>“<u>Reading Settings</u>”</i> under <i>“<u>Settings</u>”</i> and tick <i>“<u>Discourage search engines from indexing this site</u>”</i> box. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGGD7CI9zu-6LkUGIba2o4fqq_RAvDjDswM5S22rXaRcqOCRxaabWmLHa9NYH_lpIIIY3Z60TXBWROb5Onf2sZZ25crvb5TeyJfQ1Z5z2PfLCikVPTueXVAxJAOFgzvPZ8EAZLV4e47IA/s1600/reading+settings+in+wordpress.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Reading Settings" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGGD7CI9zu-6LkUGIba2o4fqq_RAvDjDswM5S22rXaRcqOCRxaabWmLHa9NYH_lpIIIY3Z60TXBWROb5Onf2sZZ25crvb5TeyJfQ1Z5z2PfLCikVPTueXVAxJAOFgzvPZ8EAZLV4e47IA/s320/reading+settings+in+wordpress.png" title="Reading Settings" width="310" /></a></div>
<br />
Just un-check the box once your website is 100% ready for launching.<br />
<br />
Please take note that web hosting is paid on a monthly basis. To make things more convenient, you can have it auto-charged to your account. <br />
<br />

<h2>
3. Structuring Your Website</h2>
<br />
It’s important to know what pages will make up your website. There’s a page for your business profile, services, contact details, and other information that you think are essential for potential clients to know.<br />
<br />
Prioritize your About page. This is where you will put your business profile, which is essential in building the credibility of your brand. Make sure that what you put in this page will not just talk about what your business is about, but also make you remarkable to potential clients. <br />
<br />
The next things you should focus on are your landing pages. Design them to be persuasive and compelling so that visitors will be converted to leads.<br />
<br />
List down the services you offer and assign words or phrases for each of them. Choose terms that you think your target audience use when they search on Google. Let’s say you’re a photographer in Manila and one of the services you offer is wedding photography. What do you think people use when they search for wedding photographers online? It could be <i>“wedding photographer in Manila”</i> or <i>“wedding photographer in the Philippines”</i>.<br />
<br />
To know the actual keywords or key phrases your target audience use, you can check with <a href="https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner" target="_blank">Google AdWords Keyword Planner</a>. <b><a href="https://arismoreno.blogspot.com/2015/10/how-to-do-keyword-research-and-analysis-for-seo.html" target="_blank">Here’s how</a></b>.<br />
<br />
When you identify the pages for your website along with their keywords, it’s time to create a hierarchy. <br />
<br />
Here are factors you need to consider:<br />
<ul>
<li>Organize them in such a way that you and users can easily understand. For instance, put <i>“Wedding Photography”</i> as a sub-category under <i>“Photography Services”</i> instead of making the latter as an independent page.</li>
<br />
<li>Include categories and subcategories as necessary. Don’t create two or more pages for one service.</li>
</ul>

4. Creating Content</h2>

<br />
Writing a few sentences on a landing page will not cut it. It’s advisable to put at least 500 words in a page. This way, you can increase the recurrence of your target keywords or key phrases as well as <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/what-is-latent-semantic-indexing-seo-defined/21642/" target="_blank">synonymous terms</a> within the body of your content. This is essential in increasing your chances of ranking on the first page of search engines for relevant queries. Don’t forget to put the primary target keyword or phrase in the title.<br />
<br />
If you’re serving a <a href="https://arismoreno.blogspot.com/2015/09/local-seo-philippines.html" target="_blank">local area</a>, I suggest you mention your target area several times in your content. (e.g. photographer in Manila)<br />
<br />
In the first paragraph of your content, readers should be able to grasp what they can expect from that page. This way, they can easily find what they’re looking for. It’s important to communicate with them right away what’s in it for them and why they should choose to do business with you. What sets you apart? Is it your affordable rates or flexible packages? What is it that they can gain from choosing you?<br />
<br />
You can elaborate your points in the following paragraphs and add other relevant information such as FAQs and Testimonials. This will help boost your conversion rate. <br />
<br />
In addition, you can also increase the readability of your content by keeping paragraphs just one to two sentences long as much as possible. <br />
<br />
Focus on 100% quality because it will be difficult for you to rank on search engines for relevant search terms if your target audience will not find value in your content. <br />

<br />
There are free and premium themes available for WordPress. Just go to the <i>“<u>Themes</u>”</i> section under the <i>“<u>Appearance</u>”</i> tab and click <i>“<u>Add New</u>”</i> which is on the upper left corner of the Themes page. From there, you can choose a theme to use.<br />
<br />
When choosing a theme for your website, here’s what you need to remember:<br />
<ul>
<li>Make sure that it’s easy for users to navigate.</li>
<br />
<li>Make it compatible to mobile and tablet devices (responsive)</li>
<br />
<li>See to it that there will be no error on the website once the theme was installed. </li>
<br />
<li>Ensure that it will load fast both on desktop and mobile. </li>
<br />
<li>Most importantly, make sure the design is appropriate to the nature and your business and brand identity.</li>

7. Optimizing Your Website for Search Engines</h2>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
While quality content is an important ranking factor, it’s not enough to get you to the top spot. You can further ensure that your website will appear for relevant search terms keyed in on search engines like Google and Bing when you do the following.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>URL Structure</i></span></h3>
You should create URLs in a manner that human users can understand. <br />
<br />
Instead of using long ID numbers, you should use readable words. <br />
<br />
You should also consider using hyphens to separate words. <br />
<br />
Let’s say you are running a website about photography. A URL like <i>www.johnphotography.com/services/family-shoots</i> is better than <i>www. johnphotography.com/family-shoots</i> or <i>www. johnphotography.com/services/?p=1</i>. <br />

<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Navigation Labels</i></span></h3>
If a page has a long title, you can use a shorter navigation label. <br />
<br />
Learn how you can use the built-in menu editor on WordPress: 
<a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide" target="_blank">https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide</a><br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Headings</i></span></h3>
There are six heading elements – H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 and H6. You can use these tags to represent different sections of a webpage. <br />
<br />
In WordPress, the title of the page automatically becomes the H1 tag. <br />
<br />
If your content is long and exceeds 500 words, consider breaking the body into different sub-topics to make it more readable and easier to skim. Blocks of text typically turn readers off and are considered as eyesores. <br />
<br />
Use H2 for the subheadings of the H1, H3 for the subheadings of the H2, H4 for the subheadings of the H3, and so on. <br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Images</i></span></h3>
Search engines can’t detect images. That’s why it’s important to put alt text on the pictures you use on your website. Make sure that it’s relevant and descriptive. <br />
<br />
Click here to learn how to insert images in a page. 
<a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Inserting_Images_into_Posts_and_Pages" target="_blank">https://codex.wordpress.org/Inserting_Images_into_Posts_and_Pages</a><br />
<br />
<b>Bonus Tip:</b> Don’t let an image take up the top portion of your page, so that visitors do not need to scroll down just to get to your content.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Call-to-action</i></span></h3>
A link or button that instructs users to perform an action is called a call-to-action (CTA). Some examples are:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><u>Call Now to Schedule an Appointment</u></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><u>Fill Out This Form to Get a Quick Quote</u></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><u>Download this to View Our Portfolio</u></i></div>
<br />
Place your CTAs in an area that’s easily noticeable to users like the upper portion of the sidebar. <br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Forms</i></span></h3>
You don’t need to be a coding expert just to put forms in your website. There are plug-ins available to help you do so. <br />
<br />
You can try the “<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/si-contact-form/" target="_blank">Fast Secure Contact Form</a>”. You can install it using the detailed instructions provided.<br />

<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Internal and External Links</i></span></h3>
You can link some of the words in the body of content going to other pages in your website. Keep this in mind when linking internally:<br />
<ul>
<li>1 to 3 links per page is okay.</li>
<li>This is done in order to provide additional information to users, so make sure that all hyperlinked words and phrases are relevant to the page you’re linking to. </li>
<li>You can link to another website if needed. Let’s say you use a jargon or a technical term in your content, you can link that word to Wikipedia or a webpage that explains its meaning further. Just make sure that you’re not leading people to a competitor’s website. Also, set these links to open in a new tab so that users will not be directed out of your website when they click on the links.</li>
</ul>
Go to this page to better understand how you can add links to WordPress: <a href="https://ithemes.com/tutorials/adding-links-in-wordpress/" target="_blank">https://ithemes.com/tutorials/adding-links-in-wordpress/</a><br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Meta Title and Description</i></span></h3>
You can modify the snippets that will appear on the search engine results pages (SERPs) for your website. There are plug-ins available that you can use for this, but I personally recommend “<a href="https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/" target="_blank">SEO Yoast</a>” because it has a lot of useful features. <br />
<br />
Once you installed and activated that plug-in, you can see the meta title and description editor under the content editor. Meta titles have a character limit of 50-60 characters including spaces, while descriptions should only be 150-160 characters long.<br />
<br />
When you make a meta title and description, keep in mind the following:<br />
<ul>
<li>Meta titles and descriptions serve as a short overview about your website pages that will appear in the search results. That’s why, make sure that every set of meta title and description is relevant to their corresponding pages.</li>
<br />
<li>You can take this chance to put target keywords or key phrases in your meta title and description. However, don’t overdo it because Google can penalize you for keyword stuffing. </li>
<br />
<li>Make them compelling so that you can urge users to click and see the rest of your content and other pages in your website. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>XML Sitemap</i></span></h3>
This includes links going to the pages of your website. You can use this so that search engines can index your content and to alert them each time you modify or add new content to your website. <br />
<br />
This feature is included in SEO Yoast, which means that you don’t need to get another plug-in for an XML sitemap.<br />
<br />
Here’s a short but detailed set of instructions on how to use SEO Yoast. 
<a href="https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/" target="_blank">https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/</a><br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Google Analytics</i></span></h3>
Google Analytics provide insights about the visitors of your website as well as the things you need to do to improve user experience. <br />
<br />
Here are some guides I’ve written to help you navigate Google Analytics.<br />

<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Page Speed</i></span></h3>
If your website loads slowly, there’s a high likelihood that the number of users immediately leaving your website will increase (otherwise referred to as bounce rate).<br />
<br />
This is something that you would need to avoid because a high bounce rate can affect your business greatly and your chances of gaining potential customers.

<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Mobile usability</i></span></h3>
<br />
Check if your website will load on different devices through phone and tablet emulators. You can try mobiletest.me.<br />
<br />
See if your pages appear properly, especially your CTAs.

<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><i>Blog</i></span></h3>
If you want to succeed in blogging, you need to be customer-centric. This means that you don’t blog just to promote your business, but also to provide information that’s helpful to your target audience. <br />
<br />
If you are a photographer, blog about the benefits of hiring a professional photographer and what are the things that people need to know before they hire a professional to take their pictures on a special event. This way, you aren’t just helping your target audience, but you are also encouraging them to use your services. <br />
<br />
When you have topics, <a href="https://arismoreno.blogspot.com/2015/10/how-to-do-keyword-research-and-analysis-for-seo.html" target="_blank">conduct keyword research</a> so that you can ensure that you content will generate organic traffic to your website. <br />

<br />
If you’re ready to write a post, just click on <i>“Add New”</i> under the <i>“Post”</i> tab on the upper left side of the admin panel. Don’t forget to optimize the meta title and description of your target keyword or phrase before you publish. <br />

<br />
Reposting your articles on another website, even if you publish it first on your own website can cause a <a href="https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66359?hl=en" target="_blank">duplicate content penalty</a>. To avoid this from happening, you need to tell search engines such as Google and Bing that you just copied it from your website and re-posted it on another website. But how are you going to do that?<br />
<br />
Here’s the step-by-step guide on how to add canonical tag in WordPress:<br />
<br />
1. Install the Yoast SEO plugin<br />
<br />
Go to <b>Dashboard</b> and click on the <b>Add New</b> link under <b>Plugins</b> on the right menu bar.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZk5YMSrhOYbAR3lUcFke63QCei82NY0VXQ6JeOcn-Yg7B0ezAz2FafBAjfl6CZQVwwPhxiyQNKscWg-HiULlIRSb4jl1yJ9E5KRvwtstA5BpORu8pOts8k4vDoNx0NXghiXEp4LDB654/s1600/adding+a+new+plugin+in+wordpress.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" border="0" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZk5YMSrhOYbAR3lUcFke63QCei82NY0VXQ6JeOcn-Yg7B0ezAz2FafBAjfl6CZQVwwPhxiyQNKscWg-HiULlIRSb4jl1yJ9E5KRvwtstA5BpORu8pOts8k4vDoNx0NXghiXEp4LDB654/s640/adding+a+new+plugin+in+wordpress.png" title="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Enter 'Yoast SEO' in the search box and hit enter. And then install the plugin and activate it. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbTECwXplEoSaxVG5t2LdyZTBR9jwFOAZolChn-THcCzU5wsAahvva0hI12R-Kl_jSyWJhoM4g4jhnc4VVNnWBXIeifpriUB4adUf_3nUbKa3RVsRlHOuSLOM4YZ1OW-Qhc2zy9KVDv2U/s1600/installing+a+new+plugin+in+wordpress.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" border="0" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbTECwXplEoSaxVG5t2LdyZTBR9jwFOAZolChn-THcCzU5wsAahvva0hI12R-Kl_jSyWJhoM4g4jhnc4VVNnWBXIeifpriUB4adUf_3nUbKa3RVsRlHOuSLOM4YZ1OW-Qhc2zy9KVDv2U/s640/installing+a+new+plugin+in+wordpress.png" title="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
2. Before you publish a post, please don’t forget to insert the link of the page where you copied the content from in the <b>Canonical URL</b> field under the <b>Advanced</b> tab of the <b>Yoast SEO</b> plugin. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOHv6Pu-CGMKu9weJBG5UwaOzaT562CSsvSn1NTMLl7uQeTl7eJP9a8nJD3evzzkfhGWH81A_9c9nn9wHBKrh_JGPtVs8HVi1GDECG5elGwJi0mksiNRthFyw0voL7sTXfdhO-SJXBzWk/s1600/adding+cross+domain+canonical+tag+using+seo+yoast+plugin.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOHv6Pu-CGMKu9weJBG5UwaOzaT562CSsvSn1NTMLl7uQeTl7eJP9a8nJD3evzzkfhGWH81A_9c9nn9wHBKrh_JGPtVs8HVi1GDECG5elGwJi0mksiNRthFyw0voL7sTXfdhO-SJXBzWk/s640/adding+cross+domain+canonical+tag+using+seo+yoast+plugin.png" title="how to add canonical tag in WordPress" width="470" /></a></div>
<br />
3. Go to the URL of that post and view the source code to check if the rel="canonical" tag is already added in the <head> section of the post. CTRL+F the word 'canonical' and you should be able to see this tag:<br />
<br />
<center>
<b><link rel="canonical" href="<i><span style="color: #073763;">URL of the original post</span></i>">
</b></center>
<br />

<br />
<b>Updated:</b> September 23, 2016<br />
<br />
When you are searching in the Philippines using Google, you will be automatically redirected to google.com.ph even if you only type google.com in your browser. They created this kind of algorithm to serve the most accurate and relevant results for Filipino users. For example, if you are searching for a coffee shop in Manila, Google will only show a list of coffee shops in Manila, Philippines not in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manila,_Utah" rel="" target="_blank">Manila, Utah</a>.<br />
<br />
Here are six effective ways on how to rank well in local search.<br />
<br />
<h2>
1. Create a Google My Business Page</h2>
Go to <a href="https://www.google.com/business/" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/business/</a> and list your business there. But before doing so, make sure that your business meets their <a href="https://support.google.com/business/answer/3038177" target="_blank">guidelines </a>and it has a mailing address or serves customers at its location(s). You will need to <a href="https://support.google.com/business/answer/2911778?hl=en" target="_blank">verify it</a> first before it shows up on Google maps and search results. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihL0mhePLdtA-sqRalrq5zvFS1gqMPqAPGrLdqbM6MIYoHRRVwPNan4R2o5qPs2DTaAoVeVRGyhL5DeMkX1BPUg9ZQhL9_TrwDF-aIzAwAHJa-VbiMcyYiyjidu4aXqcBPbIQUTIfCVOk/s1600/Get+your+business+on+Google.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Create a Google My Business Page" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihL0mhePLdtA-sqRalrq5zvFS1gqMPqAPGrLdqbM6MIYoHRRVwPNan4R2o5qPs2DTaAoVeVRGyhL5DeMkX1BPUg9ZQhL9_TrwDF-aIzAwAHJa-VbiMcyYiyjidu4aXqcBPbIQUTIfCVOk/s640/Get+your+business+on+Google.jpeg" title="Create a Google My Business Page" width="580" /></a></div>
<br />
To increase its visibility in Google search results:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>provide all the required information such as business name, address, contact info, category, and business hours <strike>and a short intro about your business</strike> (<a href="https://support.google.com/business/answer/6262887" target="_blank">Google are not allowing users to edit business description field since August 1, 2016</a>)</li>
<li>add a nice profile photo (business  logo), a cover photo (storefront) and upload lots of public photos to showcase your products or services</li>
<li>add a descriptor to your business name (ex. Laba Pa More - <u><b>Laundry and Dry Cleaning</b></u>)</li>
<li>encourage your satisfied customers to give you positive reviews on your listing</li>
<li>always update your page with your latest promos, new products/services or latest updates about your business</li>
<li>it's highly recommended that you respond to every review that you will receive even to negative ones</li>
</ul>
<br />
Since Google My Business pages are usually listed above the standard search results, your site will definitely receive more traffic and more leads.<br />
<br />
If you search <i>"dry cleaning services"</i> on google.com.ph using a Metro, Manila IP address, you will notice three listings displayed on the first page of standard search results. That’s how your listing will look like on SERPs. <br />

<br />
<br />
<h2>
2. Submit Your Website to Local Business Directories</h2>
List your website to high-quality and relevant Philippine-based business directories such as Yellow-Pages.ph, Yelp and FourSquare. Just make sure that you will use the same business <b>N</b>ame, <b>A</b>ddress and <b>P</b>hone Number (NAP) found on your site and Google My Business page.<br />
<br />
<h2>
3. Use Geographically Targeted or Local Keywords</h2>
Make sure that you are using local/geo-targeted keywords on your website. Use Google keyword planner when looking for the best keywords. Follow the instructions below:<br />
<a href="http://www.wanttorank.com/2015/10/how-to-do-keyword-research-and-analysis-for-seo.html" name="keywordresearch"></a>

<br />
<ol>
<li>Go to <a href="https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner" target="_blank">https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner</a> and log in using your Gmail. </li>
<li>You will be redirected to a page where you have to put your product or service and the target location. Hit the blue button at the bottom when you’re done. Take note that you can use your target region or city instead of just using Philippines in the location field.</li>

<br />
<li>After you click on the <i>'Get Ideas'</i> button, you will see a page that contains <i>'Ad group ideas'.</i> You'll need to go to <i>'Keyword ideas'</i> for you to see the recommended words and phrases and their average monthly searches. No need to look at the 3rd to 6th columns. Just choose the most relevant ones with decent amount of monthly searches and put them in an excel sheet. </li>
<li>The last thing you should do is to remove the keywords that return search results littered with popular websites or big brands. These are highly competitive keywords and ranking for them will take forever especially for those with new sites. <br />
<br />
Let’s say I am running a restaurant located in Metro Manila and I want to incorporate <i>food delivery</i> into my business. I will probably use <i>"fast food delivery"</i> as one of my target keywords because it has an average monthly search of 70 (which is a good number for me) and most of the sites showing up on the first page of google.com.ph for that search term are not that popular and not optimized for search engines. </li>
</ol>
<br />
The key here is to <b>strategically</b> insert your target City/Region together with a relevant keyword within the landing page:
<br />
<ul>
<li>Title</li>
<li>Meta Title and Description</li>
<li>H1 tag</li>
<li>URL</li>
<li>Content</li>
<li>Image alt attributes</li>
</ul>

<h2>
4. Earn <a href="https://arismoreno.blogspot.com/2015/09/6-effective-ways-to-build-links-for-website.html" target="_blank">Inbound Links</a> from Philippines-based Websites</h2>
Ask other Filipino website owners or bloggers within the same industry to link to your site. Of course, that will be easy if you have an informative and content-rich site. You can politely ask them to include your site in their resources page or feature your site in one of their future publications.<br />
<br />
To increase your chances of winning their trust, tell them that you will also do the same for them. Or you may want to befriend them first before asking them for a favor – comment on their blog posts regularly or add them on Facebook or follow them on Twitter and interact with them (use your personal account).<br />
<br />
<h2>
5. Implement Schema.org Markup</h2>
Place your business NAP in the footer section of your website and mark it up with schema.org markup data. Here is the code:<br />
<br />
<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness"><br />
<p itemprop="name"><b>BUSINESS NAME</b></p><br />
<p itemprop="address" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><br />
<span itemprop="streetAddress"><b>STREET ADDRESS</b></span><br />
<span itemprop="addressLocality"><b>CITY</b></span>,<br />
<span itemprop="addressRegion"><b>REGION</b></span><br />
<span itemprop="postalCode"><b>POSTAL CODE</b></p><br />
<p itemprop="telephone"><b>PHONE NUMBER</b></p><br />
<meta itemprop="latitude" content="<b>LATITUDE</b>" /><br />
<meta itemprop="longitude" content="<b>LONGITUDE</b>" /><br />
</div><br />
<br />
Just replace the text in bold with your business details.<br />
<br />
If you don't know how to get the latitude and longitude of an address on Google maps, right-click the marker on the map and click <i>'What's here? (Anong mayroon dito?)'.</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo6Z7Oc_bnaRmOEe5kWTAeQ71vseMVSSxgMODvpmiQ2zB11mOfhM581qLieMpZcdh7R6bZKmIpkmmgzjieiBrV6qapu-oY-zrSd9KhXOEkXVgWo5Gt2ifqyBRQ38v4kt_MFni3qDn2BOA/s1600/What%2527s+here+option+in+Google+Maps.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="What's here option in Google Maps" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo6Z7Oc_bnaRmOEe5kWTAeQ71vseMVSSxgMODvpmiQ2zB11mOfhM581qLieMpZcdh7R6bZKmIpkmmgzjieiBrV6qapu-oY-zrSd9KhXOEkXVgWo5Gt2ifqyBRQ38v4kt_MFni3qDn2BOA/s1600/What%2527s+here+option+in+Google+Maps.jpeg" title="What's here option in Google Maps" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
A box like this will appear at the bottom of the screen with this data - latitude is on the left side and longitude is on the right.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<h2>
6. Set a Geographic Target in Google Search Console</h2>
Sign into <a href="https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/" target="_blank">Google search console</a> using your Gmail and add your site by clicking on the red button (ADD A PROPERTY) at the upper right corner, and verify ownership of your site. If you're done, go to the dashboard and click 'International Targeting' under 'Search Traffic,' and then choose 'Philippines' as your target location. <br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">NOTE:</span></b> Don't do this if you want to serve other Filipinos living outside the country.<br />
