Picture this: You‘ve just travelled to a new city. You have no idea where anything is or where the *best* spots are.  Restaurants. Gyms. Barbershops. Etc.

What’s the first thing you do? 

*opens Google*

“Best ________ near me”.

This exact situation is why ranking high in Google & Google Maps does wonders for your business.

If you neglect it, you’re constantly slipping through the cracks to prospective customers and clients.

“So what’s the deal? How do I boost my Google ranking?”

Well, it won’t happen overnight. Nothing worthwhile ever does. 

But below are 3 quick tips you can implement to speed up the process. 

1) Optimize your Google Business Profile

Fill out AS MUCH information on your profile as possible. Name, Address, Phone number, Hours of operation, etc..

Link to your website & socials. List products. Post updates.

Be active on this as you would any other social media account.

2) On-page CMS updates

Consistently update your website with new listings, content, product offers, whatever is relevant for your business. Blog articles help out a ton with this as well. This helps to show to search engines that your website is in fact active. And of course, make sure you’re including important keywords to your business across your site!

3) Reviews! Reviews! Reviews! 

If you have a physical store, or you’re a service-based professional, make the review process as QUICK and EASY as possible for your clients. I’d recommend having a QR code handy somewhere so they can quickly scan and drop a review. This is arguably the most important factor in rising the rankings of Google & Google Maps.

Wrapping it up

Securing a prominent spot in Google & Google Maps is crucial for attracting new customers and ensuring your business doesn't get overlooked. By optimizing your Google Business Profile, keeping your website updated with relevant content, and encouraging customer reviews, you can significantly enhance your online visibility.

While it takes time and consistent effort, these steps will put you on the right path to standing out in local searches and driving more traffic to your business.
