What is a Google Business Profile?

Short answer

A Google Business Profile is your free business listing in Google and Google Maps. With your address, opening hours, photos and reviews.

Looking for a business nearby? Then you often first see a map with three businesses. They come from their Business Profile. For local businesses this is often where most customers come in.

A good profile is complete and up to date. With real photos, the right services and lots of reviews. Also reply to every review. Google sees that and so do customers.

Real-life example

A painter posts a few photos of a job every month and asks for a review after every project. Within six months he is in the top three on the map.
