Be relevant by claiming your Google My Business listing providing all the right
\ninformation to interested people. The process is relatively straightforward but
\nour checklist empowers you to further optimize your business listing. We show
\nyou how to create GMB listings whether you have one or 20 business locations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But first, let\u2019s take a look at what is and why you should consider GMB
\nas soon as possible.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

What Is Google My Business?<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Google My Business (GMB) is a digital dashboard where businesses can manage
\ninformation that Google provides to anyone looking for them online. All the data on
\nGMB listings make it easier for potential customers to look for (and find) products or
\nservices on offer in Google Search or on Google Maps.<\/p>\n

If you have searched for a business on Google, you may notice a small profile window
\nthat appears on the right of the screen. That is known as a Google My Business listing
\nwhich includes a profile image, map pin and call-to-action buttons to take visitors straight
\nto a website. It also often shows directions to the business address, operating hours,
\nphone numbers, email address and a reviews section.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why Is Google My Business Important?<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is no denying that the Internet continues to grow at an incredible rate making it
\nincreasingly important to put your business online. Google My Business is considered
\nas one of a select few essential tools to help businesses grow their online presence.<\/p>\n

When setup correctly, GMB allows businesses to appear in local searches which streamlines
\nhow customers find the information they need. Considering that Google My Business is a free
\ntool, it is certainly worth looking into as it will help drive your promote your online presence.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How To Create A Google My Business Listing<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Setting up your GMB profile with Google Maps is relatively simple. The dashboard is easy
\nto use and there is only one place to edit, update and add your business information.
\nHowever, if you haven\u2019t already, you must first sign up and verify your business online …
\nWhile this takes care of creating a new listing, what happens if you\u2019ve been operating for
\nsome time? If you fall into this category, you should claim your business listing immediately.
\nA simple way to tell whether a listing for your business exists is to type it into the block
\nprovided for \u201cBusiness Name\u201d. If your business name appears in the list below, you need
\nto claim it right away.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What Information Should Be Included
\nIn Google My Business?<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The more information you add the better for your business. At the very least, you
\nshould complete all the information that Google asks you for. Make sure you include
\nthe following: Business Hours, Contact Information, Physical Address And Directions
\nand Website And Company Details …<\/p>\n

Here you can also add a 750-character description of your business and remember
\nto use relevant keywords you rank for. This is essential considering that there aren\u2019t
\nmany opportunities to add content you wish to rank for. The description will help Google
\nunderstand your business better and what type of search queries it should show in results.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Google My Business Categories<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The categories section in GMB can also help your business listing on Google Maps.<\/p>\n

The biggest advantage of Google My Business is on local searches. If someone searches
\nfor \u2018Marketing agency in Eastbourne\u2019, all of the relevant businesses labelled within that
\nsector will appear in that search result. This is where Google adds the information into a
\ndetailed Map of the location where users can compare travel locations, distances and times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Google Reviews and Requests<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

You may think that the job is done after confirming the correct information but there is
\nmore you can do. A nifty feature of GMB is that you can encourage visitors and customers
\nto leave online Google Reviews. You can also use it to monitor what other reviewers are
\nsaying about your brand. Simply download the Google My Business App to get
\nnotifications, manage reviews and messaging at anytime and anywhere.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Create Google My Business Posts<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

GMB posts can be seen as \u2018mini ads\u2019 for your company\u2019s products or services providing
\na great opportunity to use keywords you want to rank for. These posts appear in your
\nGMB profile when someone searches for your brand on Google or when they view your
\nGoogle My Business profile on Google Maps. There are various posts to choose from
\nsuch as \u2018What\u2019s New\u2019, \u2018Event\u2019, \u2018Offer\u2019 or \u2018Product\u2019.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/span><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Google My Business profile is the information that appears in Google Maps or Google
\nsearch results when visitors use certain keywords relevant to your business. The more
\ninformation you provide while encouraging customer engagement will greatly benefit
\nyour brand. GMB has proven itself time and time again as a powerful marketing ally
\nand getting the basics right is just the beginning.<\/p>\n
