Google Maps and Google Places offer local businesses a free opportunity to get listed at the top of the first page, for local Google searches in any town or city.

Because so many of us instinctively turn to Google, as our first (and often only) port of call, when searching for a service or product locally, Google has created Google Places, which displays local business listings on a map above other search results.

Google Places. The Free Google Business Directory

A free Google Business listing is potentially your most important local advertising tool. Because a local business listing on Google Maps and Google Places gives you the chance to put your business in front of local customers, at exactly the moment they search online for your products or services.

87% of us now conduct some kind of research online, before buying locally. And when we’re looking for service providers, (like plumbers, accountants or hairdressers) that figure’s closer to 92%.

More importantly, with Google Places Local results appearing at the top of search pages, above normal websites, few of us look much further to find the services and products we need.

And best of all, with an optmised Google Places Local Business Listing, you will generate new customers and prospects on complete auto-pilot at absolutely no cost.

Google Places for Local Business – The Easy Way

A well crafted business listing, that ticks all the boxes Google requires, will show on page 1 of local searches. But it’s important to get your listing right.

In effect you’re creating a mini-website, containing all your relevant business information and it’s vital to include natural optimisation techniques. Done well a Local Business listing on Google Places will direct customers to your contact information, shown at the top of the page next to a map of your area.

When that happens expect the phone to start ringing
and customers to walk through your door.
