Still banking on your website to rank in local search?

Here’s the truth ⬇️

In local search results, websites appear last, after Google Ads and Google Business Profiles.

The traffic breakdown says it all:
✔️ 20% clicks go to Google Ads
✔️ 70% go to Google Business Profiles
✔️ Only 10% go to websites

But here’s the catch…

Within that 10%, it’s not individual business websites that rank first.

It’s high-authority directories like Yelp, TripAdvisor, Eater, and OpenTable that take the top spots.

So even if you rank on the first page, you’re likely buried beneath the platforms that feature your competitors.
