GOOGLE MY BUSINESS / LOCAL DISCOVERY
Help nearby customers find and choose you.
Help people find your business on Google Search and Maps. We keep your hours, services and contact details clear. We also improve the local pages people reach from your profile.
Built around your business
Make your business easy to find nearby
Google My Business is now called Google Business Profile. We help businesses that meet Google's rules keep their details up to date. We also plan local pages and ways to reply to reviews. Local results depend on how well you match a search, how close you are and how well known your business is. You cannot pay Google for a better local rank.
This service is for shops and firms that meet customers in person. If you have more than one location, we plan the work for each real site. We do not create profiles for places where you do not work.

What we can do for your local business
Before we start, we agree what needs to change and who will do each task. Your proposal lists the work included.
List your services
Choose the right business types and list the services you offer. Use your real business name and keep the facts the same across your site and profile.
Photos, hours and updates
Add real photos of your business and keep your hours up to date. Agree who will update the profile for holidays or changes to your opening times.
Local website content
Link your profile to useful pages about your services and area. Make contact details easy to find. Do not add copied pages for places you do not serve.
Ask for and reply to reviews
Ask customers for honest feedback and reply with care. Do not pay for reviews or ask only happy customers to leave one.
Review calls and leads
Review the calls, visits and leads shown in the tools you use. Look at changes in demand, time of year and the area you serve.
AI, applied thoughtfully
Keep your business details clear wherever people find you
People may find you on Maps, in search or through an AI answer. Keep the facts clear and up to date on your profile and site. AI can help draft a reply, but your team should check that it is right for the customer.

Before we begin
Your questions, answered.
Tell us about your business, where you work and what you want to improve.
Is Google My Business the same as Google Business Profile?
Yes. Google My Business was renamed Google Business Profile.
Can you guarantee a top position in Google Maps?
No. Local results depend on how well you match the search, your distance from the searcher and how well known your business is. We work on the parts you can improve, such as clear details and useful pages.
Can an online-only business have a profile?
A business that only works online may not qualify. We check how you serve customers against Google's rules before we suggest a profile.
Will you create or purchase reviews?
No. We help you ask for honest feedback and reply to it. We do not make up reviews, buy ratings or offer rewards.
