Google Business Profile, set up properly and included with every website from £399
The free listing on Google Maps is where 'near me' searches are won, and most small businesses leave it half-finished. We set it up with the right category, service area, photos, hours and services with prices, and we keep it active every week on the care plan.
The ten things a profile needs to rank
- Verification, by postcard, phone or video, handled with you
- The right primary category and the secondary ones that fit
- Service area set to the towns you actually cover
- Opening hours, including emergency hours for trades
- Services listed with prices (yes, the £399 goes on ours too)
- Real photos of you, your work and your premises or van
- A description written for your trade and town
- Business details identical to your website and every directory
- Your website link with tracking so the report shows profile visits
- Review link ready to paste into every job-done email
Kept alive every week
A profile with no activity sinks. On the care plan we post an update or offer every week, add new job photos you send us, reply to every review within a day, and check the insights monthly so you know how many people called or clicked from the map.
Google Business Profile questions
Is a Google Business Profile free?
Yes, Google does not charge for it. We set it up properly as part of the £399 build and keep it active on the care plan.
I work from home. Do I have to show my address?
No. You can be a service-area business: the address is hidden and you list the towns you cover. Google still needs a real address to verify you, which stays private.
Why does my profile not show up?
Usually one of four things: it is not verified, the category is wrong, the details differ from your website and directories, or it has no activity. We fix all four.
Can you get me more reviews?
We cannot write them and you should never buy them. We give you a review link to put in every job-done email and reply to every review you get, which is what makes customers leave the next one.
