The first step to making sure your business always shows up when people are searching for a service you provide is to perform the Optimization of your Google Business Profile (GBP).

For businesses with a local presence, being featured in the Google Maps 3-Pack is even more important than showing up in the top organic search results because this section shows up before organic search results. In fact, a whopping 44% of all local searches click on the Google Maps 3-Pack, which includes the top 3 results provided by Google Maps. If your business is not showing up in this section due to a poor optimization of the Google Business Profile, it may be losing out on a ton of new business. The first step to fix the issue is to perform a Google Business Profile Optimization.

There are over a hundred factors that Google considers when deciding how to rank your business against those of your competitors, and there are countless ways to improve each of those factors. So it is no wonder that most businesses are wasting resources and time on optimizing the wrong things, or worse yet, not doing it at all!

By using us for something as small as a Google Business Profile optimization, you are actually acquiring access to a strategic partner with extensive experience in scaling businesses quickly that can advise on a lot more than just SEO.
