Small business owners have a lot on their plate, and not everyone has time to see what their business looks like from a consumer’s perspective online. However, searching for your business on Google is a great way to see if you are getting the most out of your online marketing strategy.
Google your business to verify that your address, phone number, business hours, and website are complete and accurate. Claim your business after you Google it using the Guide to Google Business.
What is Google My Business?

Verified businesses on Google are twice as likely to be considered reputable by users.
Imagine yourself in the shoes of a potential customer.

If they search for your services on Google, what will they find?
Maintaining your business presence on Google My Business can help customers discover the products and services you provide, contact you, and find your location.
