Google Business Profile optimization and management

Your Google listing set up correctly, kept current and watched for problems.

Overview

For most home service businesses, the Google Business Profile brings in more calls than the website does. It's also something many owners set up once and don't look at again. We handle the Google Business Profile optimization up front, and on the Ranked and Booked plans we keep the profile managed after that.

How it works

We set it up properly

We complete the categories, services, service area, hours, attributes, and the business description. Many profiles are missing several of these, and each one affects how you rank.

We keep it current

Google favors profiles that are complete and accurate. We keep your photos, services and details up to date.

We monitor it

Competitors sometimes report listings, Google occasionally suspends profiles for reasons outside your control, and members of the public can suggest edits to your hours. We watch for all of these and fix them quickly.

What you get
  • Full profile setup or rebuild
  • Category and service optimization
  • Photos and services kept current
  • Review responses handled for you
  • Suspension and unauthorized edit monitoring
Questions

Common questions

Do you need my Google login?

No. You add us as a manager on the profile, which takes about a minute, and you can remove us just as quickly. We never ask for your password.

My profile got suspended. Can you help?

Usually, yes. Suspensions are most often related to the address, the categories, or the business name. We identify the cause, correct it, and file the reinstatement request. The process takes time and we can't guarantee that Google reinstates every profile.

How many categories should I have?

One primary category that names the service you most want calls for, plus only the secondary categories that apply to your business. A long list of loosely related categories doesn't help and can weaken your relevance.

Do you post on the profile every week?

No. Weekly posts are often oversold, and on their own they have little effect on rankings. We spend that time on the things that do affect rankings: categories, services, photos and reviews, kept accurate and up to date.

Someone keeps editing my hours. Why?

Google accepts suggested edits from the public, and competitors sometimes use this. We monitor for unauthorized changes and reverse them.
