How SOCi Surveys Helps Brands Collect Customer Insights and Boost Review Generation
Introducing Genius Search: The Future of Local SEO
Our recent research found that 80% of consumers search for local businesses online at least weekly, and nearly a third do so daily.
As a multi-location business or franchise, your brand must appear in branded and non-branded search results. Achieving high rankings is the top priority of local SEO, as they drive organic and in-person foot traffic.
Unfortunately, numerous companies still rely on conventional listing management techniques, which essentially involve maintaining accurate name, address, and phone number (NAP) citations across various local directories and networks.
Businesses need a new way to approach search. To be discovered tomorrow, you must change how you approach search today.
The Challenge of Traditional Listings Management
Up until now, the goal of listings management has been straightforward: ensure your business information is accurate and consistent across all directories to improve search visibility. While this approach has been effective, it’s increasingly clear that it’s insufficient to stay ahead in today’s rapidly changing search environment. As consumer behaviors evolve and new generative AI search technologies emerge, businesses need a strategy that goes beyond just being seen — they need to be discovered by new audiences.The Genius Search Solution
