How to set up a Google My Business page!

Setting up a Google My Business (GMB) page is relatively straightforward. Follow these step-by-step instructions to get started:

  • Enter Your Business Name: Type in the name of your business. If your business already exists in Google's database, it may appear in the dropdown list as you type. If it doesn't exist, click "Add your business to Google."
  • Select Your Business Category: Choose the category that best describes your business. This helps Google show your business to relevant users.
  • Add Your Business Location: If you have a physical location where customers can visit, enter your address. If you provide services to customers at their location or don't have a physical address, you can select "Yes" and then choose "I deliver goods and services to my customers."
  • Specify Your Service Area (If Applicable): If your business serves customers within a specific area, you can enter your service area instead of a physical address. You can choose regions, cities, or a radius around your location.  
  • Add Your Contact Details: Enter your business phone number and website URL. This makes it easy for customers to contact you or visit your website directly from your GMB listing.
  • Verify Your Business: Google will need to verify that you are the owner of the business or have the authority to manage it. The verification process typically involves receiving a postcard with a verification code at your business address. Alternatively, you may be eligible for phone or email verification.
  • Complete Your Profile: Once your business is verified, complete your GMB profile. Add details such as business hours, photos, a description, and any other relevant information that will make your listing informative and engaging.
  • Add Attributes and Highlights: Customize your GMB listing by adding attributes that describe your business, such as "women-led," "wheelchair accessible," or "outdoor seating." You can also highlight specific features, such as "popular dishes" for restaurants.
  • Publish Your Listing: Review all the information you've entered and click the "Publish" button. Your Google My Business listing will now be live and visible to potential customers in Google Search and Google Maps.

How to Add a Second Location to Google My Business:

Expanding your business reach by adding a second location to your Google My Business profile can further boost your online presence and attract more potential customers. Here's how you can do it:  

  • Sign into Your Google My Business Account  
  • Click on "Add Location"  
  • Provide Accurate Business Information  
  • Verify Your Second Location 
  • Optimize Your Second Location's Profile
