For Minneapolis businesses serving local customers, local SEO delivers higher-intent leads. Learn more in our SEO vs Digital Marketing guide.

Yes. A good website helps organic search, but local SEO optimizes your Google Business Profile, manages citations across 50+ directories, and ensures you appear in the Google Maps "3-Pack" where 44% of clicks go for local searches.
