I finally got why local SEO matters after a beach trip

I was in a seaside village and looked up places to eat on my phone. Some spots were easy to find online, but others were buried. What's the best way to boost SEO for businesses in tourist areas?

Totally, local businesses need to show up online.

Exactly, Kevin nailed it. Businesses in tourist spots need to work harder because people are searching right there on the spot. The very first thing is to claim and fully fill out the Google Business Profile with current photos and hours. Then, actively ask happy customers for online reviews, because those rankings matter a ton. Use the actual words visitors type, like "fish tacos near Main Beach" instead of just "seafood restaurant.

Yep, reviews are everything for that.

My last vacation had three great cafes that were impossible to find online.
