We already have a listing. Is this still worth it?

Usually yes. Most listings are claimed and then abandoned with half the fields blank, which is exactly the gap competitors use to outrank them.

How do reviews affect ranking?

Review volume, recency and response rate are all signals. A steady trickle of recent reviews outperforms a burst followed by silence.

Can you help if we serve customers rather than host them?

Yes. Service-area businesses can rank without a public address, and we configure the profile accordingly.

Google Business Profile & Local Search

Claim, verify and optimise your Google presence so you appear in the map pack when people nearby search for what you sell.

Overview

For any business with a location or a service area, the map pack sits above the organic results. Winning a place in it is a different discipline from ranking a web page, and it is frequently the cheaper win.

We claim and verify the profile, fill every field Google uses as a ranking signal, build the review process, and keep the listing active.

Category, service area and attribute selection
