Your Google Business Profile is probably half empty.
When someone in your suburb searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses on a map before anything else. Which three is decided mostly by the profile, not the website. Most local profiles were set up in ten minutes years ago and never touched again.
Check it in five minutes. Search your business name on your phone and open the profile.
- Is the primary category the exact thing you sell, not something close to it?
- Are your services listed, each with a description?
- Are there photos from this year?
- Have you had a review in the last 30 days?
- Does the service area match the suburbs you actually drive to?
