Supporting local business in San Ramon and Danville

The RelyLocal web site is a small but integral piece of our entire local marketing solution. You simply choose a category (or multiple) in which to feature your business listing and enter as much information as you can; company description, logo, location, hours of operation, web address, email - even, photos, banner ads and links to your Blog, Facebook, or Twitter pages! Our first goal is to drive traffic to your business - online or off.

As a result, some customers will find what they need about your business directly on our site, while other customers will continue on to your site to get even more information.

There are plenty of "local" online directories and various "buy local" movements sprouting up across the country. Unfortunately, most of the other websites are full of national chains, while selling advertising to the highest bidder (the national chains). Only RelyLocal is locally owned and operated by your neighbors who really understand what San Ramon & Danville businesses are up against. RelyLocal isn't just a website - it is a community campaign to rebuild our local economy and strengthen our community!

The following are three great reasons why local businesses should be working and relying on RelyLocal and Webivia here in San Ramon and Danville:

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

While our #1 goal isn't necessarily to get your business on "page one" at Google (please consider our minimal costs) - it DOES happen most of the time! In addition to the new customers you will gain directly from RelyLocal.com, you will also begin to see increased traffic and exposure on many other search engines and directories. With things like meta keywords and even the content on your page becoming less relevant to search engines (because it can be manipulated), your site being featured on trusted sites like RelyLocal.com will help to increase your search engine rankings.

Social Media Ambassadors

Let us be your online ambassador - connecting you with our ever-growing network of "Loyal Locals" on Facebook and Twitter. Imagine - the next time you are holding a special event or offering a special promotion, you can reach hundreds (if not thousands) of qualified local customers with your message every time we make a post on your half... Instantly! (Try that with legacy marketing methods!) Plus, we keep things fun - with quizzes, contests, and giveaways designed to increase our fan base, while generating new exposure for your business in new markets!

Local Coupon Marketing

Coupons mailings can be very effective, but are also very expensive considering the ROI (Return On Investment). While they do hit a lot of households, not everyone needs a muffler or likes Chinese food. As part of your normal membership, you may feature up to three coupons each month (you choose the expiration dates) for customers to print and use at your location. As we continue to grow, we will also insert "highlight coupons" in the major mailings in the area to showcase all of the coupons available at RelyLocal.com. This is a great incentive to entice new customers. Best of all, it's all included as part of your regular membership!
