Implement schema markup on your website to help search engines understand the context of your content. Schema markup is a code (
) that you put on your website to help search engines return more informative results for users. When you use schema markup, you can highlight specific information like events, recipes, or products, making it easier for voice search devices to find and relay this information to users.
###### Local SEO
For local businesses, voice search optimization should include a strong emphasis on local SEO. Many voice searches are location-based, such as "Where's the nearest coffee shop?" To appear in these results, make sure your business is listed accurately on online directories and has consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone number) information across the web. Additionally, include location-specific keywords in your content and metadata to improve visibility for local voice searches.
###### User Experience
Lastly, focus on the overall user experience (UX) of your mobile site. A site that's easy to navigate and understand will keep users engaged longer and reduce bounce rates, which are positive signals to search engines. Optimize for voice by offering an intuitive UX that caters to voice search habits, such as providing quick answers to questions and ensuring that those answers are easily accessible by both voice search devices and users who may follow up with screen interaction.
