DESCRIPTION
3 out of 5 searches are conducted on a mobile device*. When it comes to being found by local consumers, mobile visibility is quickly becoming nearly as essential for a local business as having a business phone number. The small screen size means a business has to show up among the top listings for its particular product or service, or risk never being found by their local customers using their mobile devices. Getting the basics right is where businesses need to invest their efforts—from mobile optimized local landing pages, to verified business profiles across search, social, directory sites and mobile apps. #LSA #LSAWebinarSeries #WebinarSeries

Case Study: Texas Roadhouse
Case Study from:
“What the local pages allow us to do is build those communities of people who are connected with the restaurant. It’s two different things.” “I think the engagement is about the same. It’s just when it’s done one-on-one and personal at the local level, I think it adds that real personal piece to it that you don’t get at the national level.” - Dave Dodson, Communications Director of Texas Roadhouse
