Local SEO brings customers to you

Customers are searching for businesses like yours right now. If they can’t find you online, they’ll find a competitor instead.

Yoast Local SEO optimizes your business for local search and Google Maps, whether you run one location or manage dozens. Our step-by-step guide makes setup fast, with no technical knowledge required.

How Google sees your business

Google can’t read your mind

You’ve added your business details to your site, but Google won’t show them in local search unless they’re marked up in a format called Schema, a way of labeling your content so search engines understand exactly what it means. Yoast Local SEO converts your business info into Schema automatically, so Google can read and display it correctly.

No technical skills needed

Skip the technical SEO headaches

Just enter your business details once, and the plugin takes over from there. It converts your address and hours into Schema markup so Google understands them, generates a geo sitemap for better local visibility, and adds a KML file to your XML sitemap so Maps can find you. No technical knowledge needed, just results.

Single location or multi-location

Built for one location or a hundred

Running more than one location? Yoast Local SEO gives each one its own page, with its own address, hours, and map, while letting you manage shared details like business type and price range in one place. Add a store finder so customers can search for their nearest branch

Running a single location? All of this still applies to you, just without needing to think about it. Set your details once and Yoast Local SEO handles the rest.
