          Hi All,

          I ask the question as I was trying to GeoTarget tool which happened to not recognise a business address I place in the footer on one of my sites.

          The tool states that including the address on page helps the search engines identify your location, so I'm curious whether a specific format works best when optimizing for local search?

          Thanks.

            Thanks for the replies.  The site is for a law firm so yes, most clients visit the office. So I will stylise  a  vCard formatted address and placing it high up as suggested.

            Then will see if the geotarget tool picks it up..

            @David - the tool is the seomoz tool : http://www.seomoz.org/geotarget

                  I don't agree with David but he might know better.

                  In my opinion you should use the less relevant real estate of the site/pages - footer will be just great for both users and Google (to spot it on every page).

                  However this is just an opinion but I am sure the placement of the address within the site or a particular page is not "more relevant" for google depending on the position. It just needs to be present.

                  Hope it helps.

                    All I could really say is the higher up the better. However, it depends upon the context of the website.

                    If you are trying to run a local directory site, it's ideal if you have the location/info/image and relevant information as high as possible.

                    If it's a website and you have footer information with your business address, that is perfectly fine.

                    What GeoTarget tool are you using?

                      Unsolved Questions about travel industry keywords

                      travel industry

                      My question is regarding my current learning of SEO and keyword research. I have been leaning towards Keyword Everywhere, SEMrush, and Google Keyword Planner for keyword research. What do you recommend? I know you might suggest Moz, but I'm looking for something that will enhance and help me find valuable keywords for the travel niche. If I sign up with Moz, will someone from the team help me with keyword research for the travel niche and my website? I haven't found any resources or lessons specifically focused on travel websites and their keywords.

                      Unsolved DA dropping after spam attack

                      moz pro da domain authority spam backlink attack spam backlinks

                      Hello. Our DA has dropped from 40 to 28. Why does moz take into account clear spam links. Not all links are created by website owners. Popular websites also see a lot of unknown spam linking. Any solutions to over-ride these issues? It seems very futile to see the DA dropping without any apparent reason or help towards actionable data.

                      Is having the company's address in the footer (or header) of each webpage important for SEO?

                      Is having the company/office's address in the footer (or header) of each webpage important for SEO? Your page for the Geotarget tool says that having the address in this element helps search engines find your location. My question is, how important or relevant is this to SEO? How does knowing the address influence SEO? Is it best SEO practice to put the address in the footer of every webpage? http://www.seomoz.org/geotarget
