Who'd a thunk it? This is a good addition to the articles I use to educate people. I keep banging on about this when people ask, but they've heard 'content is king' so much that they've lost track of WHY content is king. Oh, that, and Google just loves pages where they can see the content leads to onwards clicks rather than back to the SERPS. I absolutely believe they're already using that data.

I do the majority of our work with smaller local clients. I'm continually amazed at how many small companies don't bother to include any 'about us' information - primarily their address. In fact, it's not just the small businesses that do things like this. Last weekend I wanted to contact my local King Soopers grocery store (Krogers by any other name), so I visited the website. The store locator was broken and I had to use Google Maps to find the phone number. I also wanted to see what their price on Turkeys was. Again, couldn't find their weekly specials and ended up buying my Thanksgiving bird from another store (who did have the specials on their website). In the examples you listed, New England Hotels, Electric Fireplaces and Plumbers, location is a significant factor, along with availablility and price. The most natural question for anyone providing a good or service is where are you, what do you provide, and how much. I am continually amazed at the number of people who skip these very basic things.

You just have to pay us for taking the time to research and figure that out for you. :) I’d like to add that, if you REALLY don’t know what content you’re looking for, we CAN figure it out for you.
