What is Google Maps Optimisation?
A Maps/business listing is your chance to tell your local target customers and clients all about your business/products/services, Google rewards business owners that provide as much information as possible about their business, this has to be done in a specific way to get into the local “3 pack” on a Google search. See the image on the right to see a local search in London for “Mercedes Mechanic”, guess who is going to be getting all of the phone calls and website visits!
Why should my business be in the top 3 listings?
The top 3 Google map placements show at the top of the search page just under the paid ads. A placement in the “3 Pack” for your search terms will increase your website traffic and increase your customer/client inquiries.
