Now we come up with the sub-verticals of it i.e. LOCAL SEO.
The difference is that it helps with your business's digital conversions from potential and real customers asking for solutions to their problems or answers to their questions.
Understanding the Purpose of Local SEO
It focuses on improving your website's authority for local searches. These are the type of searches that tend to produce walk-in visitors to stores, and the type that promotes your business as a leading authority in your given field.

The primary benefit of local SEO by a professional company is that it allows you to rank higher for certain keywords, which causes your website to receive more traffic.
How does this work?   
Imagine that you were trying to drive customers to your website, but you only want that, the customers who were interested in buying your services instead of performing a certain fix for themselves.
This allows you to bypass optimizing for broad keywords that people searching for information, rather than products. Local SEO focuses on people in a certain physical area, rather than global traffic, to understand how it can drive more conversions for businesses local to a certain place.
The end result is that your website becomes a leading authority for all matters related to your field of business. This is beneficial to plumbers, dentists, grocery stores and any other business that focuses on serving customers in a select area.
So, Local search engine optimization builds your business as an authority, and provides several indirect benefits like more referrals, and allows you to receive more customers.
The trends in SEO shift like a clock. Several years ago, internet companies worked hard to generate traffic. Today, high traffic is not a long-run objective and it doesn’t always bring you high ROI. With a new generation of big data players, the stakes are high in SEO industry. SEO gurus and internet marketers spread themselves out to build a strong online presence and create an effective conversion funnel. Lead generation is the critical point in any conversion funnel, the liaison between traffic generation and customer acquisition.
There are 6 main factors that improve lead generation:

1. User-friendly interface and user experience
2.  Page layout
3.  Call-to-action
4.  Images and icons
5.  Titles and headers
6.  Anchor text
You can easily measure the engagement and the behavior of users on your pages with the help of Google Analytics insights on Audience Behavior, Landing Page's performance etc.

If the bounce rate is high then try to rethink your content marketing strategy.  Try content experiments: promote free useful content offers like eBooks, infographics, and discounts to ask for contact information, registration, and newsletter submission in return. This is what SEO leads built on.
