This is definitely a starter list but with every step, you need to make sure that you're getting things right, especially the link building campaign part. Because that's where 90% of the people get things wrong and fail. I agree with SEO Ninja - you need to understand your ranking factors to cut through all the noise and KNOW exactly what kind of backlinks will help rank your local website.

Sometimes all you need to do is build citations and get 2-3 guest posts and you'll rank. Other times you don't even need to do that, you'll rank with just citations and social profiles. And in some cases you might need to consistently work for 6-8 months just to hit the bottom of page 1.

It all depends on how well you do your competition research and choose the right keywords to go after.

The list is good though, if we're assuming that the people who follow the list know what they're doing.

In 2022, the growing dominance of SERP features – like image carousels, maps, lists, Knowledge Panels, "People also ask" dropdowns and various forms of local business cards – mean that ranking in Google ain't what it used to be.

Ensure you're using the right local keywords for your products and services
Ensure your website performs well on mobile devices

Local optimization is still of utmost importance in the SEO industry. According to Web print lab post, localization came in second place behind the use of strategic keywords for half of all firms as a priority strategy for the year (71 percent ). Even though mobile optimization was a top goal for the year, local SEO won out.
Putting money into local search optimization might have a direct impact on your company. Utilize local search to draw clients to your establishment and boost sales. However, many business owners still find SEO to be a mystery. It can occasionally be daunting and perplexing to use search engines like Google, Bing, and others.
