SEO - "Contact Us" Page


Do you have a 'Contact Us' page on your website? Great. It's important to have a page for customers to understand all of the different ways they can get in touch: email, physical location, fax, etc.

However, one of the most important features to include on your website is your phone number and address - on every page of your site.

By doing this, it makes it easy for customers to contact you without taking the extra step of going to the contact page - AND it can help improve SEO results. How? By repeating your city and state name on each page, it gives the search engines another item to look at when indexing your pages.

If every page of your site talks about your business but includes no information on city and state, search engines will not (may not) connect the two - the fact that your business offers a certain service or product - in a certain location.

Include your business name, phone number and address in a sidebar, at the very top of the page or in a footer. This gives customers the information on every page - and it will help with your SEO.
