When someone in your area searches for services you offer, does your business show up first, or do your competitors’?
Optimizing your Google Business Profile is one of the most underused tools by local business owners. Yet many small businesses leave theirs only half-complete or outdated. That means fewer clicks, fewer calls, and fewer customers. It’s free, it’s visible, and when optimized right, it can bring customers straight to your door.
| Your Optimizing Google Business Profile Checklist |
A fully optimized Google Business Profile helps you get found in local searches, rank higher in the map pack, and attract more high-intent leads. Think of it as your online business card—only, it’s far more powerful and interactive.
✅ Business name and info matches across the web (aka NAP consistency)

✅ Reviews responded to—professionally and promptly
✅ Posts and updates shared at least weekly
