This listing leads searchers to your business and provides an opportunity for them to get a snapshot of your offerings, including contact information and business hours.
When people search for something local, for example, “privacy fence Lexington KY,” Google’s first page displays a map with three businesses listed. These listings are what’s call a Google Business listing (also known as Google My Business, or GMB for short). The first page of Google captures 71% of search traffic.
Filling out a GMB and getting your business verified is easy. Google needs your basic information, including your location, business hours, what products/services you offer, etc. They even include a one-page website to populate. What they don’t tell you is what you need to do to get your business listed in the top three on the map, which you need to snag that 71% of traffic.
