  • Claim your site in Google Places - This will help your site rank well within Google Maps.
  • Create a content page of local businesses you are proud to be associated with. Consider funeral homes, restaurants, community organizations, etc. When adding these local businesses, add a link to their site. You can then ask the business to return the favor by linking to you from their site. Linking is a way to increase your search engine ranking as well.
  • Create a business fan page on FaceBook. Link from your business FaceBook page to your site. Also, ask visitors to your site to become fans of your FaceBook page.
