Local search results are listed at the top of the search results pages (Google lists the top ten local results while Yahoo and MSN list the top three) when the search engines deem it is appropriate.
The rest of the listings can be viewed by clicking on the “More results near…” link beneath the first three. There are obvious visibility and traffic benefits to having your company name, phone number and address showing up in the top ten listings (or “ten pack” as it is often called).
Our local SEO packages work to determine what specific information should be included in your listing to give your company the greatest opportunity to be found at the top.
