What is a
Google My Business Page?
|
|
Google My Business provides you with the ability to list your business location on Google Maps and local search results.
You can display important information about your business, including the opening/closing times, contact details or a link to your website. More recently Google has also released a new feature allowing you to post a link to articles or up and coming events.
The listing is free but it should be regarded as a necessity by all businesses. If your business is an online business and you don’t have a physical shop then you should still consider having a Google My Business page. With 90% of search engine users, Google is the most popular search engine. If you are in need of help with your Google My Business Listing, Liam will gladly come down and walk through it with you. Book your Google My Business appointment today, call 403-742-3181!
