Any quality Local SEO tools with good reports?
-
We have used BrightLocal for some time now. With Bright Local we do not like the reports from a qualitative point of view in that the information is often wrong.
Does anyone recommend something other than Bright Local?Thanks,

So glad to be of help, Robert! Have a great week.

Ahh, Miriam,
You are always there for me. This appears to be a great resource and I will follow up on it in the a.m. I will let you know how it goes.
We usually just buy whatever workable level (like SEOmoz Pro) to start with and test it out for 3 to 6 months. If it works we expand or stay with it and if not, well we don't.
I actually had higher hope for BrightEdge, (EDIT: THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BrightLocal NOT BRIGHT EDGE. We use BrightEdge for our enterprise solution and are two to three months in and liking it so far.) but we get to much conflicting data to make it actionable for our clients who are paying us. I will let you know how Places Scout works out for us.
Thanks as usual, you are the best,
Robert

Hi Robert,
Nice to see you on this sunny Monday! I have been hearing good things, on an agency level, about Places Scout for local tracking/reporting. I have not personally used it, but some of the Local SEOs I respect most have spoken highly of it.
You have to sign up for it via this page on the Warrior Forum:
I'm not sure how it compares, point for point, with Bright, but I thought you might like to check it out.

Yoast local landing...posts?
Hey Moz squad. I do some seo work for a multi location locksmith and garage door service. On our locksmith website - We just use regular word press landing pages for all of our different city cities. (btw if anyone has a good site architecture tips blog they know about, Send it my way!) So with our Garage door site, we bought the yoast local plugin. And it wants to make our locations Blog posts instead of pages. NOW what do you guys think. Does it matter? I know I have less control on how a blog post looks. But I'm just looking for different opinions. Thanks loves.

If I hired you/your company to do my SEO ...
If i hired you or your company to do SEO for my site (http://goo.gl/XUH3f) what would be the first steps you'd take? I'm pretty sure i've covered all of the basics myself, I'm just left trying to figure out what i should do next... rankings have been going up and down for the last few weeks, but even when they're up, they're not high enough 🙂 (and then they go back down anyway) ... I know some of you are going to say build links, please at least give me an example of one or two sites you'd try to get to link to mine... I'm open to any advice or feedback as I'm just a website owner who's been doing their own SEO & learning on the fly... Thanks a lot!
