Survey: Local search marketing top channel for SMBs, but many not tracking ROI

A recent survey found local search is the most popular form of online marketing for US small businesses (SMBs). In this context, “local search” includes SEO and PPC. Non-local SEO and PPC are also broken out separately. Source: RevLocal, July 2016 (n=602 US SMBs) The survey was conducted by digital agency RevLocal in July among roughly 600 SMBs. Interestingly, most of these respondents expressed a belief that their digital marketing efforts were effective (62 percent) or very effective (13 percent). Yet paradoxically, a substantial minority (44 percent) said they weren’t doing any ROI tracking. Source: RevLocal, July 2016 (n=602 US SMBs) An earlier Thrive Analytics survey found that 74 percent of SMBs in the US did not use any tools to monitor or measure the performance of their online marketing. Nearly 60 percent in that survey were simply asking customers, “How did you hear about us?” Source: RevLocal, July 2016 (n=602 US SMBs) Despite the findings above, numerous surveys have shown that SMBs working with Search Engine Land Source

First appearance of ads in Local Pack found in UK mobile search result

At the SMX Advanced Local Workshop in June, Google confirmed that ads would be appearing in the Local Pack. At the time it wasn’t clear when this would roll out or whether the ad would replace one of the listings or become a fourth position in the Pack. However, yesterday Ryan Scollon spotted a Local Pack with three organic listings and one ad at the top in a UK mobile search: The screenshot shown at the Local Workshop at SMX Advanced in Seattle had one ad and two organic listings in contrast to the above. We reached out to Google for a comment but have yet to hear back. My guess is that Google is still testing formats and this isn’t yet a formal roll out. We’ll update this post if we get any statements or new information from Google. If others are seeing these new Four Packs (4Packs) in North America or other markets, let us know.
