Google My Business and Local SEO for Map Placement

Creating a Google My Business listing is the first step in a strong local SEO strategy. Google My Business allows business owners to manage their online presence which can provide a huge impact on how well you rank in search engines. Plumbing and contractor businesses with a physical location, which draw local customers, are searchable through Google Web Search, Google Maps, Mobile search, and Google Earth. By claiming, or creating, your Google My Business listing, you can easily add crucial information about your business such as your address, business hours, phone number, and available services.

How is my Google Rank Determined?

  1. How close you are to potential client’s location
  2. How many reviews you’ve received
  3. Your average rating
  4. Business hours
  5. How well you respond to customer inquiries
  6. Whether or not Google has received any serious complaints about your company

Being Found for Local Searches in Google Places is Critical For Online Success

Having a complete listing will allow you to rank in the local pack as well as in organic search results. Customers click on what is easily viewed. With a Google My Business listing, customers can easily see your average rating, hours, and location.
