Google Business Rankings - Let's talk about it.
Google publishes exactly how it ranks your business, yet people don't seem to read it.
Three factors rankings are based on:
1. Relevance: how well your profile matches what someone typed. Complete, specific category and service info.
2. Proximity: how far you are from the searcher. This one's out of your control, you can't fix this.
3. Prominence: how well known you are. Reviews, mentions, links, and consistency of your details across the web.
So 2/3 are in your hands, and most businesses ignore both.
Our advice? Fill the profile out properly & in detail. Ask for reviews and reply to them. Keep your name, address and phone identical everywhere they appear.
No hacks. No secret. Just the bit everyone skips.
Save this and go check your profile.
