Send us a textIn this episode of Imperfect Marketing, I sit down with Joshua Thompson, a local SEO specialist with more than a decade of experience helping businesses show up where it matters most: in Google's local search results and Google Maps.We dive deep into why local SEO is evolving faster than ever, how AI is changing search behaviors, and what businesses should actually focus on instead of chasing shortcuts.From Accidental Marketer to Local SEO ExpertJosh shares his unique path—from building websites for financial leads to helping friends and family rank locally to eventually building and selling his own company. His entrepreneurial background shaped the customer-first, no-gimmicks SEO approach he uses today.Understanding Local SEO vs. Traditional SEOJosh breaks down what makes local SEO its own ecosystem:How Local SEO DiffersGoogle Maps and the Local Pack often matter more than organic rankingsLocal SEO relies heavily on trust signals (reviews, name-address-phone consistency, location data)Traditional SEO leans more on authority signals (backlinks, content depth)What Actually Matters for Local SEOReviews—the biggest local ranking driverAccurate listings (especially high-impact ones like Google, Yelp, Bing)Customer engagement signalsBuilding trust through consistent informationJosh emphasizes that directory listings aren't about gaming Google—they're about confirming your legitimacy.Cutting Through the Noise: AI, Voice Search & “Gaming the System”We tackle the recent buzz (and myths) about AI influencing search:AI “Hacks” & GimmicksJosh calls out trends like having “AI parties” in ChatGPT to influence rankings—explaining why tactics like these don't create real, lasting visibility.AI Search Is Still SearchAI tools still rely heavily on Google's resultsIf you show up in Google, you'll show up in AI responsesThe fundamentals haven't changed: content + trust + authority still winVoice Search Déjà VuJosh compares today's AI panic to the voice-search hype a decade ago—reminding us the sky didn't fall, and SEO fundamentals remained the same.The Rise of No-Click Searches & What It Means for BusinessesLocal businesses are seeing:More direct calls from Google Business ProfilesFewer website visitsGreater reliance on reviews and verified infoJosh explains why this is good news, especially for service-based businesses where customers want immediate answers—not long website visits.Preparing for What's NextJosh's advice for staying ahead is refreshingly simple:Stick to fundamentals: content, relevance, authority, and trustOptimize your Google Business Profile: reviews, photos, accuracyBuild momentum: keep improving in one direction instead of chasing every new trendAvoid shortcuts: they cost more time than they saveAs he puts it: “You don't get time back while you're searching for shortcuts.” Looking to leverage AI?

Check if your dental practice qualifies for capital allowances here >>> https://www.dentistswhoinvest.com/chris-lonergan———————————————————————UK Dentists: Collect your verifiable CPD for this episode here >>> https://courses.dentistswhoinvest.com/smart-money-members-club———————————————————————Patients can only choose you if they can find you. We unpack a clear, dentist‑friendly roadmap to winning local search, focusing on what actually leads to enquiries: fast sites, map visibility, reviews that earn trust, and content written in the language patients use.We start by stress‑testing whether SEO is even the right move for your practice. Location matters more than most realise, and Google's red city boundary in Maps can define your odds of ranking. We compare low‑competition areas, where you might already rank without ongoing SEO, against crowded city centres where a strategic plan and patience are essential. From there, we reinforce the foundations: a fast, mobile‑first website with dedicated treatment pages, frictionless booking, and copy that answers costs, pain, and timing. If the basics are shaky, every other tactic leaks value.Then we break SEO into four practical pillars. Technical SEO sets speed and structure. On‑page SEO matches real local queries like emergency dentist Nottingham and clear aligners to tightly written pages. Off‑page SEO builds authority with relevant backlinks, consistent citations, and supportive channels like YouTube that link back and lift credibility. Local SEO ties it together: an optimised Google Business Profile with accurate data, posts, photos, and a steady cadence of reviews with thoughtful replies that include natural keywords. We also tackle myths around AI. People still find local clinicians via Google and Maps, and strong organic signals feed AI results rather than fight them.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.
