Your Google Business Profile often appears before a prospect reaches your website. A complete profile helps searchers understand your firm and gives Google stronger local information.

Use accurate core information

Keep your business name, address, phone, hours and website consistent with your real-world business. Avoid adding keywords to the business name unless those words are part of the official name.

Choose categories around the real business

The primary category should reflect the main service. Secondary categories should match services your firm provides. Category choices influence which local searches Google connects with your profile.

Build out services and business details

Add core services with clear descriptions. Complete available profile fields. Add office, team and exterior photos so prospects recognize the location and understand the business.

Keep the profile active

Add updates tied to educational content, events, firm news and relevant services. Review hours during holidays. Answer profile questions with accurate information.

Track profile actions

Watch calls, website visits, direction requests and search visibility. Pair profile data with website analytics so you see what happens after someone visits the site.
