Google Business Profile Optimization

Our Google Business Profile Optimize Package will ensure your local SEO is polished, rankable, and Google-compliant.

What is Google Business Profile? Google Business Profile, previously known as Google My Business, is how you control your business details in Google search results. And Google gives you a decent amount of control over what you can include and exclude.

Optimizing Your Google Business Profile

Here are our four steps to optimizing your Google Business Profile. This service is a one-time charge. Once complete, your Profile will be updated, optimized, and following Google’s best practices.

Step 1

Strategy Call

We begin the optimization process with a strategy call. Together, we’ll set objectives and gather all necessary information and images.

This Zoom call typically takes about 30 minutes, and we’ll answer your questions and make the plan.

Step 2

Claim & Create

Next, we’ll claim or create your Google Business Profile, if necessary.

If you already have control of your profile, we’ll get access so we can begin optimizing.

Step 3

Verify Listing

If necessary, we’ll help you verify your business.

This can include phone, text, email, video, or postcard verfication.

We’ll help you prepare for the video verification process if requested by Google.

Step 4

Optimize

With your profile created and verified, it’s time to optimize.

We’ll review and optimize every aspect of your Google Business Profile.

This includes products and services, business description, business categories, photos and logos, and tracking setup.

Google Business Optimization FAQs

Yes. It might surprise you to learn that both Google and users can change your details without your permission.

As part of our management plans, we’ll check for any unauthorized external edits. These details include phone number, address, hours, and even your business name.

Absolutely. Optimizing and maintaining your profile will improve its visibility and rank.

And there are many optimization steps we can help you with – on your own site and off-site – to improve your business’s search visibility. Contact us for more details.

Yes, you can add many listings under products and services. Depending on your business category, Google may limit you to just one or the other.

For example, a service business may not have the option to list products (which generally include physical goods).

Remember to only list services under the Services option. You risk having your profile suspended if you list a service (like a root canal or oil change) under Products.

While the ideal schedule will vary for each business, you should consider posting your special promotions and news updates.

As a minimum, you should post a monthly update to your Google Business Profile. This keeps fresh content visible for prospective customers who view your profile.

You might consider using some updates from other social networks (Instagram, Facebook, X, or YouTube community) on your Google Business Profile.

News posts work well here. Think about special holiday hours, promotions, or new product/service lines.

Absolutely. You will always be the owner and admin of your Google Business Profile. To manage your profile, you’ll give us access, but we will never be the profile owner.
