What Is Google Places?

Over 45% of all searches for websites on Google are location based. What does this mean for you?

Over 45% of all searches for websites on Google are location based. What does this mean for you?

You need to ensure your website content is full of location based keywords. Have all the regional areas you cover in both the body of your website and the meta tags of your website. Link to the websites of other businesses in the same field as yourself in neighbouring regions.

A really great way to tap into local business is to add your website to the Google Local Business Center.

This service allows you to list your business and your website for free on Google Maps. To quote Google: "When potential customers search Maps for local information, theyll find your business: your address, hours of operation, even photos of your storefront or products." People search Google Maps for a business just like yours. Read more about Google Local at www.smallbusinesslocal.co.uk

Reach new customers on Google Maps and Google.com
Local customers are already searching for the products and services you offer. Why not make it easy for them to find you on Google search and on Google Maps? The Local Business Center is the place to start.

Works great for businesses of any size
Whether you run a single dentists office or dozens of coffee shops, manage all your listings from a single account.

Update your listing at any time
Use the Local Business Center to edit your listing whenever and however you like. Your Google Maps results will be updated in a few weeks, not next year.
