I recently sat down with Matthew Hunt to discuss local SEO and the how video has become such an integral part. Matthew is the Head Coach at Small Business Online Coach in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He’s an internet expert. This guy knows his stuff inside and out and helps many local businesses with local SEO and also coaches them on the importance of making video production an integral part of their marketing initiatives.

In this video, Matthew explains Google’s ability to gauge a searchers local intent, and he also sees a trend developing that makes video more important than ever for local businesses.

Tell us your thoughts. Leave your comments and let us engage in healthy local SEO/video debate. We’d love to hear from you.
