- About OptiLocalOptiLocal was established by Nyagoslav Zhekov in 2011. The company specializes in Google Places and local search engine optimization (SEO) for small businesses. Our core mission is to create positive, sustainable online presence and image for each of our clients and to help them gain business through their Google Places pages. Google Places has turned into one of the must-have, integral aspects of the online presence of any business all over the world. Why? Because when you search for any term, related to some kind of business on Google and you add to this term any location word (i.e. “restaurant New York”), the results that are shown at the uppermost part of the page are the Google Places pages of the businesses. Those business owners who are smart enough to optimize their Places pages will gain greater visibility, leading to more phone calls or clicks on their websites, which in turn could potentially lead to more business. Even though any Google Places optimization is strongly advised, only the 7 most ingenious business owners might get access to the “golden mine” called “first results page”. Do you want to be one of them? …
