What is Google My Business?

Google My Business, or GMB, let’s you connect with people searching on Google, helping you appear in localised search results, on Google Maps and more. A GMB listing also helps you have more control over what the search engine knows about your business, including your business name, address, phone number, trading hours etc.

You can also receive reviews, quote requests, direct enquiries, visits to your websites — the list goes on. So, it’s important you know what you’re doing when optimising your GMB, which is where we can help.

Top Benefits of Google My Business

Be in more places online.

GMB puts you in the local knowledge panel, Google Maps and so much more. But only if you have one, and only if you’re using it the right way.

Rank with and above your competition.

GMB is one of the fastest growing digital marketing tools, so if you’re not on there, your competition is. Optimisation can help you outrank them.

More ways to be contacted.

When people find your GMB, they can either click through to your website or contact you then and there by phone, email or direct message.

Build authority with reviews.

Google users can leave reviews for your business on your GMB, but Google always displays your average star rating on Localsearch.com.au too!

Why Optimise Your Google My Business

Having an unoptimised Google My Business listing is like having an empty social media page — it’s a start, but it’s doing nothing to grow your business. Optimising your profile means utilising all of Google My Business’s feature to make sure when someone searches for what you do, where you do it, they’ll be drawn to your business. This is done through:

At Localsearch, our GMB specialists make this easy and affordable with packages starting from only $23 a week.

Frequently Asked Questions About Google My Business

By now, you know how important Google My Business is for helping grow your business. However, if you’ve heard rumours about GMB, you may have some questions, like if your business can even be signed up for an account at all.

Here you’ll find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, we’re always happy to talk through your options or answer any questions you have about Google My Business or any other digital marketing services.

Does Google My Business help SEO?

Having an up-to-date Google My Business listing for your business can help with your search engine optimisation, also known as SEO. It does this by helping direct users (and the search engine) to new content on your website, as well as giving Google an idea of your reputation through reviews. There are many other benefits too.

Do I need a website if I have Google My Business?

Yes. While Google My Business is good for helping online searchers find your business, they will still want to see a website for more information. Several studies show around 70% of consumers expect a business to have a website, while 30% won’t even consider a business without one. Goolge My Business simply helps more people find the lead generator that is your website.

Can I still use Google My Business without a storefront?

To be eligible for a Google My Business account, your business will need to provide a local service, either by traveling to your customers or face-to-face. Google My Business is important for every business, but particularly important if your target market is in a specific region, such as if you’re a plumber in Townsville, restaurant owner on the Gold Coast, hairdresser in Alice Springs, etc.

Are online only businesses eligible for Google My Business?

Unfortunately, online only businesses without face-to-face services that don’t travel to customers are not eligible for Google My Business. This is due to being considered a broader-targeted business, not necessarily local.
