Mentioning the relative place or location on your content will be a good help. Learn to be listed on Google Maps too...

Target geo-specific keywords then optimize them.

Oh yeah, keyword selection plays a big role. You should select keywords that are specific to a location or your target market. For example, if your niche is about web design and your company is located in Chicago, better choose "web design Chicago" as your main target keyword.

host your site on your target market and link to sites that are hosted in your target market.

Focus on promoting your site in your local area. For example, make a classified submission into local sites.
