wrote a detailed guide on the top&nbsp;affordable SEO&nbsp;services and tools to drive visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, I couldn\u2019t help but think about how underrated local SEO is. Many do not bother about or put enough into their local SEO efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just in case you\u2019re wondering\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/byjessicala.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/46-of-google-searches-are-local-1024x373.jpeg\" alt=\"46% of Google searches are local\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/go-globe.com\/local-seo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s right. Close to half of all queries on the Google search console are local searches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, it\u2019s no news that the Google Local 3-Pack, which displays the top local business listings, is now a prominent part of search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/go-globe.com\/local-seo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statistics from Go-Globe<\/a>&nbsp;reveal that 93% of inquiries with local intent feature the Google 3-Pack at the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/byjessicala.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/google-local-3-pack-1024x460.png\" alt=\"Google Local 3-Pack\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s just the good part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It gets better when you consider the results your business can get with improved local search visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Interesting local SEO statistics<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>80% of local searches convert.

Developing a local SEO strategy is essential to generate more organic traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this is easier said than done.
