The difference between Local SEO
National SEO
National SEO and local SEO have different scopes and objectives, which can contribute to the difference in cost. IN this article we look at some reasons why national SEO costs more than local SEO.
Scope and Target Audience:
National SEO aims to target a much broader audience across an entire country. This requires more comprehensive strategies, more extensive keyword research, and a larger scale of optimisation efforts. Local SEO, on the other hand, focuses on a specific geographic area, which usually has a narrower scope and a smaller target audience.
Competition:
National SEO often involves competing against a larger number of competitors on a national scale. The competition for top rankings in search results can be fierce, requiring more resources, content creation, and ongoing optimisation efforts to stand out. In local SEO, competition is usually limited to businesses within a specific local area, which can make it somewhat easier to achieve visibility.
Keyword Complexity:
National SEO usually involves targeting broader and more competitive keywords that have higher search volumes. These keywords can be more challenging to rank for and require more advanced strategies and ongoing efforts. Local SEO keywords are often more specific and may have lower search volumes, making them generally less competitive.
Content Creation:
National SEO often requires a significant amount of high-quality content creation to address a diverse range of topics and cater to a larger audience. This includes creating informative blog posts, articles, infographics, videos, and more. Local SEO content needs may be less extensive.
Link Building:
National SEO often requires more extensive and diverse link-building efforts to establish authority on a larger scale. Building high-quality backlinks from a variety of reputable sources is a time-consuming and resource-intensive process.
Geographic Targeting:
Local SEO is more focused on geographic targeting, which often involves optimising for a Google Business Profile (formerly known as Google My Business), local directories, and map listings. While this is important for national SEO as well, the scope is typically broader in national campaigns.
Reporting and Analytics:
National SEO campaigns require more in-depth reporting and analytics due to the broader range of metrics and the complexity of tracking results on a larger scale.
All these factors contribute to the increased complexity, time, and resources needed for national SEO campaigns, which ultimately leads to higher costs compared to local SEO.
It’s important to note that costs can vary based on the specific goals, strategies, and competition for each individual project.
