VOICE SEARCH AND GPS

 

GPS Network

How many times have your used Waze, Uber, Here, TomTom, etc. It might seem obvious, but it’s super important to make sure that potential customers can actually find where your business is located. So to make sure that these GPS Network apps can serve up your information, it needs to be accurately given to them. No worries. 

There is recent research that shows that 39% of consumers that can’t find you, even if they were set on it, would change their mind and move on to the next business or quit altogether if they encountered incorrect address information for a local business.

That’s where the GPS Network comes in. The GPS Network ensures a business’s location data is available and accurate on five of the most widely used navigation apps:

  • TomTom
  • Waze
  • Here
  • Uber
  • Navmii

Don’t worry, I didn’t recognize them all either. Altogether, these apps are used by over a billion users worldwide, so you can guarantee they’re widely used by your local customers.

Voice Search

These numbers from 2020 are staggering. 111.8 million people are users of voice search with an expected 9.7% increase. What we see in 2022 are that 31% of Smartphone users worldwide use Voice Search at least once a week. (Statisa) and 55% of teenagers are using Voice Search Daily (mobile marketer)

Google is learning: Before reading 2,865 romance novels, Google, in 2013, knew 77% of spoken words. Today, that figure is 97%. 

Voice Search Rankings 

If you are a business that is paying attention to your business listings, keywords, and Google Business Profile – this may have some value. According to coice search trends, 20% of voice queries include 25 keywords – with the average length of voice searches being 29 words and Voice Search results primarily come from the top 3 web ranking results. 

Do I still need to get Facebook Likes or Twitter Shares? Yes The average voice search result has 1,199 Facebook shares and 44 Tweets; however, very few voice search results had the exact query in their title tag. 

Mobile still outranks Voice

What Search Engine Does Alexa Use?

BING (so does Apple Siri and Microsoft Cortana)
