What is Google maps?

Adding your business to Google maps ( Google My Business or GMB) is, in my mind, an essential first step for business marketing. For local searches (i.e. electrician Swanbourne) getting your business found on the first page of Google, for free, is hard to beat.

Your business profile will appear on Google results page, Google maps and Google plus when some does a local search for your listed trade.

 How does GMB work?

Let's say I type in "cheap plumber in Floreat" into Google. If you have set up your Google my Business page as a plumber, servicing Floreat, then you have a good chance of being found on the results page that opens.

Where you appear in this list depends on some different factors, including your uploaded images, ratings and accuracy of the GMB profile. All of this I can help with.
