Description
Google Maps optimization comes down to twelve Google Business Profile
settings that almost nobody fills in. They're free, each takes under
ten minutes, and most local businesses in your city have every one of
them sitting empty.
I go through all twelve — where each setting lives, and what Google's
own documentation actually says about it. Two of them don't exist
anymore, and if you're still maintaining those you're wasting time on
a profile feature Google retired.
💻Thinking about a new website? If you start SEO with us, we roll the $3,800 WordPress build into your monthly retainer — no separate invoice, no upfront cost.
