How long does it take to show up on Google Maps?

A complete, verified profile can appear on Maps early, but climbing into the top three takes steady work on reviews and pages. You'll see what's moving in every monthly report.

Do I need a shopfront to show up on Maps?

No. Service-area businesses can show on Maps without a public address, listing the areas they cover instead.

Do I need ads if I'm working on local SEO?

Not always. Ads bring in calls while search builds, and you can turn them down as your place on the map grows.

Can you help us get more Google reviews?

Yes. We give you a simple way to ask happy customers, and answer every review in your voice.

Will this work if we serve several towns?

Yes. We build a page for each area and list them on your profile, so you can be found across the places you work.

Get found on Google Maps and local search

When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses on the map before anything else. Being one of them decides who gets the call.

That place is earned, not bought: by giving Google a clear, complete and current picture of what you do and where, and by customers who say so in their reviews.

What the map is worth

Visit within a day

Most people who search for something nearby on their phone walk into a business within 24 hours.

More likely to visit

Customers are more likely to visit a business when its Google profile is complete.

Read reviews first

Nearly everyone reads reviews before they choose a local business.

Businesses that grow with us

Getting found locally, explained

How customers nearby find a business. And what we do about it.

Where customers nearby search

Customers looking for a local business search Google, check the map and read the reviews, often in a minute on their phone. The businesses they see first get most of the calls.

That's why local search is three things working together: your profile on the map, your website in the results, and ads above both.

Your profile, on the map
Your website, in the results
Your ads, above both

Pages for every area you serve

A page for each town or neighbourhood you cover gives Google something to match those searches to, and shows customers you already work near them.

Ads while the rest builds

Climbing the map takes time. Local ads put you at the top of the results for the searches that turn into jobs while it happens, and can be turned down as the map does more of the work.

How you'll know it's working

Each month you see the calls, direction requests and bookings that came from search and Maps, and what we're doing next.
