Your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is the free listing that shows your business on Google Maps and in the local results with your hours, photos and reviews.
The essentials to get right:
- Claim and verify it. Until it is verified you cannot control what shows.
- Categories. Pick the most specific primary category that fits, then add relevant secondary ones.
- Hours, phone, website. Keep them accurate; wrong hours frustrate customers and hurt ranking.
- Photos. Real photos of your work, team and location outperform stock images.
- Posts. Short updates and offers keep the profile active, which Google rewards.
We can manage your profile for you as part of an SEO plan, or set it up and hand you the keys. Just ask.
