Maps Optimization

Having the Google My Business listing for your business professionally optimized has the potential to get the name, address and phone number for your business spread across the internet and placed in front of local consumers who are actively looking for your product or service prior to making a purchase.

We focus on optimizing your Google My Business listing to improve the ranking of your business in local search results - SERPs - which builds trust and credibility for your business.

Google My Business (formerly, Google Places) listings are more important in organic search results - listings that show up because they are relevant to the search terms and not because of an advertisement.

Users are happier because they are getting the information they need. Katahdin Creations specializes in Google My Business optimization for a wide variety of businesses. We know the important components necessary to improve your local rankings and know what is critical for your business success online.

What does Optimizing your Google My Business Listing do for you?

Printed phone books became door stops or high chair seats. People don't run to the yellow pages when they need to locate things anymore. They turn to the internet - frequently - via their cell phones. Smartphones are part of our everyday lives today and, especially when one is out and about, it's much easier to locate what you need via your phone. In today's marketplace, shoppers expect to find any local business listed in their search results, which is why having an optimized Google My Business listing is vital to the success of your business.

Why not do the Google My Business Optimization yourself?

Most business owners are totally focused on running, building and growing their businesses. You may have heard about Google My Business and what it means to your business success. You may also have wondered:

– What does it take to have my business listed in search results for my niche?

– Why do my competitors show up in local search and my business does not?

– What do I need to do to get my customers to write great reviews for my business?

– What do I need to do to get stars by my business name?

– What do I need to do to get current photos and videos of my business to show up in listings?

– What do I need to do to change the information that shows up online about my business?

– What do I need to do to manage the information in my local business listing?

– What do I need to do to make my business show up in the correct niche?

– What do I need to do to get MY business ranked in local searches?

– What do I need to do to get MY business to rank at the top of local searches?

Having your business listed in the top of local search results brings more customers to you - because they find you first when they search for your product or service. It's not necessary to bombard your customers/potential customers with advertising if your business is ranked high in the SERPs.

Google has become the Search Engine of choice for more than 65% of the local searching public. Google makes it easy to locate the goods and services that people are ready to purchase.

Showing up in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) takes much more than just setting up your Google My Business page and verifying your business.

You must also make certain that all information about your business - across the internet - is accurate and complete - including a Google Maps Listing. Our team of Local Experts knows how to strengthen your presence in local search results and citation systems wherever you are listed online. We have the expertise to boost your company in local search results.

Claimed & Perfect NAP Listings:

Name, Address, Phone, or NAP, is at the core of Map Optimization. It is very important that you don't mess it up.

On Page Signals:

On-page and link signals – which means using keywords in titles, domain authority, inbound anchor text and linking domain authority – are the still the most important components of the overall ranking strategies for your business success. Making sure that your site has all of these features ensures that the search engines get the correct information.

Local Citations:

Citations - quantity and quality - are a vital part of ranking your business in Google's search algorithms. A business with a great many accurate and complete citations is likely to rank higher than one that does not have many or has many inaccuracies or duplicates/incomplete.

Reviews:

One consumer study shows that roughly 88% of consumers put their faith in online reviews when they research products and services. Online reviews are as trusted as personal recommendations..

Social Signals:

Social Media plays a huge role in the choices and decisions that people make. We focus on your brand and use Social Media to help your local customers find you, where they are.
