In Orange County, the site ocautosites.com has extensive time on the net, a large directory of auto sites that gives them traffic and links to their clients which help their clients get better results. Some shops do not want to go that route and have tried creating their own series of seo tools – these are outlined here:
Start with a google account – with gmail – you need this to set up all other accounts, although you can use your own email account. Request a google voice account.
Create a sitemap and review it – are your page titles optimized for your geographical region?
Update your pages to meet the targets you are looking to show for.
Submit your site to google via the WebMaster tools.
Use your new Google account to set up a Google Local Business Listing.
Set up the other city based business directories – Merchant Circle, Yelp and City Search. If your business has been running for a few years, chances are you will need to simply claim your listing.
These accounts should be configured for your SEO needs.
Using your google account, set up a Twitter account, Facebook, YouTube. By adding photos, video and text to these sites, you can then re-use these links to populate your site and other on-line media. Links from external sources to your site help Google find out about your site which helps you get better SERP.
These are the basic steps.
From here, you need to find ways to promote your site – depending on your business model, you can use on-line forums and other blogs to get mention of your site or create a series of on-line articles on one of the free articles sites and have them link to your site.
