Google Business Profile setup and optimization
Your Google Business Profile is what people see when they search for you or find you on Maps. We set it up for you, or tidy up the one you have, and connect it to your review page.

How it works
Three steps, most of them ours
Step 1: Tell us about your business
Send us your details through the form, or tell us which profile you already have.
Step 2: We do the work
We set up or update the profile and send you anything Google needs from you.
Step 3: You verify and approve
You stay the owner. Google may ask you to verify the business before it shows publicly.
FAQ
Google Business Profile questions
Can you guarantee my business ranks first on Google?
No, and nobody honestly can. Google decides rankings based on relevance, distance and prominence. A complete, accurate profile and a steady flow of genuine reviews help, and that's what we work on.
Who owns the profile?
You do. We work on it as a manager, and you can remove our access at any time.
How long does verification take?
It depends on Google. Some businesses verify within minutes by phone or video; others wait for Google's review. We'll tell you what Google asks for.
What's the difference between setup and optimization?
Setup is for businesses with no Google Business Profile yet. Optimization is for businesses that already have one and want it complete and up to date.
Pair your profile with a review page
A complete profile gets you found. A review page, QR code and NFC cards make it easy for happy customers to say so.
