What is Google My Business (now Google Business Profile)?

Why Google Maps Matters for Local Maps Optimization

Local search is booming. Over 33% of mobile searches are location-based, and they’re growing 50% faster than general searches. With 70% of users clicking ‘call’ from local results and a surge in “near me” and “best place to buy” queries, showing up locally means capturing ready-to-act customers. If you’re not optimized, you’re missing out.

Google Maps isn’t just about directions

It’s a marketing powerhouse! Think of it as your online concierge, directing ready-to-buy customers straight to your door.
