Google Business Profile Setup & Management
For most local businesses, the first impression a customer forms isn't your website — it's your Google Business Profile. It's what shows up in Maps, in the local "map pack" above the search results, and often before someone has even clicked through to your site. We set up, optimise and actively manage that profile so it works as hard as the rest of your marketing.
Why Your Google Business Profile Matters
- Appears above regular search results for local, "near me" searches
- Shows your reviews, photos, hours and location at a glance
- Often the deciding factor before someone even visits your website
- Free to have, but easy to get wrong or leave incomplete
- Directly influenced by the same signals that improve your wider SEO
Setup, Done Properly
If you don't have a profile yet, or it was set up quickly and never touched since, we build it out properly from the ground up — accurate business categories, service areas, opening hours, photos, and a description written to actually reflect what you do and who you do it for. Small details here matter more than most business owners realise, and getting them right from the start avoids issues further down the line.
Ongoing Management
A profile isn't something you set up once and forget. We keep it active and current — posting updates, responding to questions and reviews, keeping hours and information accurate, and adjusting categories or services as your business changes. Profiles that are actively maintained consistently perform better in local search than ones left untouched for months at a time.
Reviews & Reputation
Reviews are one of the strongest trust signals for both customers and Google itself. We help you build a steady flow of genuine reviews, and make sure they're responded to — thanking happy customers and addressing any negative feedback professionally, which matters just as much to prospective customers reading it later.
Works Hand-in-Hand With SEO
Your Business Profile and your website's SEO aren't separate projects — they reinforce each other. Consistent business information, strong reviews, and an active profile all feed into your wider local rankings, which is why we manage this alongside, not apart from, your SEO strategy.
