Have you noticed when searching online for a local restaurant, an electrician, or perhaps a pet shop, how at the top of Google search results you always see three listings for local businesses, each containing handy information such as a map, a brief description, their address and phone number, opening times, and an averaged rating out of 5 stars?
Upon clicking on the name of the business you are interested in, you are shown pictures of the exterior and interior of the premises, products they sell, and a link to their website. These are the Google My Business listings.
Having a GMB listing is essential for any business as it gives you instant local exposure, and it costs nothing to have one set up. Even if your business is online only without a physical shop you should still have a GMB listing.
It is very important to get the description of your business right. Google allows you 750 characters for this but all the most important information should be visible at the start. It is also important here to include keywords related to your business that people might search for.
Google will only show three local GMB listings in the main search, so how do you make sure your business appears there? This is where you need the help of an SEO expert, to make sure the essential information has been input into your listing and to keep your listing optimised according to the latest Google algorithms.
It helps to add new content regularly, like new photos. Google will favour businesses who do this as it shows that the business is current and active. Good reviews are also important for ranking, and responding to both good and bad reviews shows that you care and have good after-sales service.
Position the listing for discovery in local searches and map-led intent.
Optimise the first visible words and keywords in the 750-character profile description.
Encourage trust with strong ratings and thoughtful responses to customer feedback.
Keep the profile active with regular images, videos, and helpful business updates.
Showcase special offers, events, and calls to action directly in the listing.
Make it simple for customers to call, visit, and get directions from search results.
Ensure address, phone, opening times, website link, services, and categories are complete.
Keep the listing current and aligned with what Google looks for in local results.
