How to get found on Google in your area
- 01
Claim your Google Business Profile
Go to google.com/business and sign in with your Google account. Search for your business name. If it appears, claim it. If not, click “Add your business”.
- 02
Fill in every field
Business name, category, address or service area, phone number, website, opening hours. The more complete your profile, the higher you rank.
- 03
Add photos
Upload at least 5 photos: your shopfront, interior, products or services, and your team. Businesses with photos get significantly more clicks.
- 04
Get your first 5 reviews
Message 5 customers you’ve worked with and ask them to leave a Google review. Send them your direct review link from your profile dashboard. Respond to every review.
- 05
Post once a week
Use the Posts feature to share an update, offer, or tip once a week. It keeps your profile active and signals to Google that your business is current.
