I did a quick google search for “hamilton mill business” today. I wanted to see which local businesses come up in the search results. Since I spend so much time working on internet marketing, I’d definitely want to support those businesses that are working at it also. At this point, in 2010, everybody knows that having your business show up in search results is an important part of running a local business. But, most people don’t know how to make it happen. By the way, if your local business is in the Hamilton Mill area, then any search phrase that includes those words should be important to you.
Granted, the original phrase I used might not be the best one, but it’s what I started with. If you search for “Hamilton Mill Movie Theater” or “Hamilton Mill Golf Club” or whatever, you’d get totally different results of course.
As a side note, I was very happy to find that HamiltonMillDwellings.com came up second in these search results. I wasn’t even looking for that but it’s a nice bonus 
Congratulations to Children’s Dentistry at Hamilton Mill for being the only other local business that came up in the results “above the fold” (where you can still see them without scrolling). It wasn’t there actual website that came up, it was a Yahoo local listing (yes, they come up on google too!).
Interestingly, a german company called Hettich America apparently signed a huge commercial lease in the area recently. Those results came up as #1 and #3 for this search.
Let us know in the comments here about your local business.
