Are your business details correct on Google Maps?

When you look up a business on Google or Maps, you may see a profile with its address, phone number and opening hours. You can create a free Google Business Profile so customers can find this information about your business too.

What can a business profile do?

Your address, phone number, opening hours, website and photos can appear together in one place. Someone who finds your profile can then call, get directions or visit your website.

What should you check when setting up your profile?

Start by choosing the category that best describes your business. Check your address, phone number, opening hours and website details. Where possible, use your own photos of your business and products. Finally, complete the verification step requested by Google.

Respond to reviews

Reviews can help new customers get a sense of your business. Thanking people for positive feedback and replying calmly and constructively to negative reviews can help you communicate well with customers.

Keep your details consistent

Check that your address and phone number are up to date on Google and match the details on your website and other platforms. Conflicting information can make it harder for people to contact you.
