Local Listing Optimization for Retail & eCommerce

Be the Store That Shows Up First

If your store isn’t showing up in local search results, customers aren’t finding you—your competitors are. Whether you’re running a single storefront or multiple locations, accurate and optimized local listings help turn online searches into foot traffic. Bend helps retail and eCommerce brands tighten up their local SEO game, so you’re the first result when someone types “near me.”

1. Claim, Clean Up, and Optimize Every Listing

Missing info or duplicate listings create confusion and cost you traffic. We make sure every location is verified, consistent, and optimized for local search.

  • Claim and manage Google Business Profiles (GBP)

  • Fix NAP (name, address, phone) inconsistencies across platforms

  • Remove duplicates and suppress incorrect listings

  • Add hours, service areas, and key attributes

Your listings should be an asset—not a liability.

2. Use Photos, Attributes, and CTAs to Drive Action

Basic listings aren’t enough. We fill them out with the content and features that actually encourage clicks, calls, and visits.

  • Upload high-quality images of your storefront and products

  • Add attributes like curbside pickup, payment types, or parking options

  • Use action buttons (call, directions, website, appointments) strategically

You want more than visibility—you want engagement.

4. Optimize for Local SEO Beyond Google

It’s not just about Google. We optimize your presence across other directories and listings platforms that shoppers actually use.

  • Yelp, Bing, Apple Maps, Facebook, and more

  • Industry-specific directories and local aggregators

  • Consistent business data across the web

  • Citations that boost overall SEO health

Wherever people search, you should be showing up.

3. Monitor and Respond to Reviews

Your star rating is your first impression. We help you stay on top of reviews and build trust through active management.

  • Set up alerts for new reviews

  • Craft thoughtful responses that reflect your brand

  • Spot trends in feedback and surface operational issues

  • Encourage happy customers to leave reviews with built-in prompts

Better reviews = higher rankings + more trust.

5. Use Insights to Guide Foot Traffic Strategy

Every local platform provides useful analytics. We use that data to inform your broader local strategy.

  • Track searches, views, direction requests, and calls

  • Spot which listings and locations are underperforming

  • Adjust hours, photos, or descriptions based on real behavior

  • Tie insights back to in-store promotions and traffic

Data doesn’t stop at the listing—it drives your next move.
