Reports from comScore indicate nearly 96% of PC owners conduct local searches. By comparison, 79% of mobile phone owners and 81% of tablet owners used those devices for local searches. The top most reason to do a local search was to find information about a specific business called a business name search. However the second most common reason was to find a business with the product or service desired (category search). So while many local searchers are looking for “name in mind” information, a substantial number don’t have a specific business in mind and naturally the market opportunity is tremendous for category searches.
Be it a local business or national brand with multi-location presence, local marketing has become much more relevant.
