Google My Business Management Service FAQs

What is Google my business management?

Google My Business - now referred to as the Google Business Profile (from November 2021) - is the key interface for managing your local business presence on Google search and Google maps. Google My Business management refers to actively optimising and managing the GMB profile to help it appear more prominently when customers are searching online.

Why is Google my business important?

Google My Business / Google Business Profiles are important because they are typically the first piece of information a customer will see about your business when they search online. GMB profiles are viewed more often than a business website.

How do you use GMB?

As a small business owner, you use GMB to share information about your business. For instance, you address, phone number, a description of what you do, promotions, products and service, team and location photos. It’s also a place to ask customer to leave a review.

What are the key benefits of Google my business?

There are many benefits when it comes to Google Business Profiles. The key benefits are:

  • Being more findable on Google search and Google maps
  • Being more visible to more potential customers
  • Sharing information about opening hours to keep customers informed
  • Attracting reviews
  • Sharing information about your core products and services
  • Building rapport with customers before they even step foot into your premises

Why is Google my business important for SEO?

Google My Business is referred to as the new home page for a business. More customers see a business’s GMB profile than their website. When it comes to SEO for local businesses, the GMB profile is the number one asset that helps get more visibility.

How does Google business improve SEO?

Google My Business establishes the business location, contact info core offerings and is a central place for reviews, which all help Google to trust the business more, resulting in better SEO results.

Is Google my business considered SEO?

Google My Business is considered an important component of Local SEO.

Will my business suffer if I do not claim my Google my business listing?

If you have a business that wants to attract customers from the local area, not having a GMB profile will result in your business being invisible on Google Maps, and less prominent on Google search.

Maz and the team have been very proactive with suggestions around our new website for directaccessvasectomy. They set out the steps clearly and although Covid has been a real pain we look forward to the next steps around some SEO updates together.

I engaged Maz to help me communicate with Google to get the verification code I was having trouble getting, and then a once-off GMB optimisation of my page. She was wonderful, and in a very short time had transformed my GMB page with content, photos, and all the bells and whistles needed to raise our profile. I am very glad I engaged her services and thoroughly recommend you do the same

Our two large Medical Centre's have been working with Maz for many years now. I absolutely cannot fault her professionalism, promptness and skill. Our website is kept looking great, any changes (and they have been constant over Covid!) are dealt with at lightning speed and there are often improvements suggested which make a huge difference. Great job Maz (and colleague Andrea). We really appreciate everything you do for us and highly recommend Local MD to anyone else.

"Covid arrived and my patient numbers dropped dramatically. It was clear that I needed to market my clinic a lot better if my clinic was to survive and preferably prosper in the future.Maz showed me how my website was largely "invisible" to google and my potential client base. It turned out that most of my posts weren't working.Maz was incredibly helpful in understanding my business and coming up with an attractive new website that engaged with my patients.The feedback from my patients has been terrific.I absolutely recommend her services for anyone looking to build a new website or optimise their GMB profile."
