How Senior Living and Senior Care Companies Can Get A Top Local Search Business Listing To Attract New Residents and Clients.

Major search engines such as Google®, Yahoo!®, Bing® are giving away their top advertising spots to local businesses. These are spots that cost anywhere from $3-$10 per click!

There isn’t a community in today’s age that would be caught dead without a sign on their property to notify drive by traffic. Everybody knows site signage is crucial to success. But, how many communities and businesses are forgetting to put a good sign up on their own local search engine?

Recent advances in search engines now make it extremely easy for people searching to find something right in their backyard…including senior living and senior care. Google® and other major search engines include a local business result map on their search result pages. Listings appear on the search result pages, on maps, and mobile results. Having a top local listing in your industry with great customer reviews stands out prominently in the search results.
