How to Claim & Verify Your Google My Business Account 2019 [Bite-Sized Internet Marketing Tutorial]
Another quick #LocalSEOTutorial by Greensboro SEO Pro!
(https://GreensboroSEOPro.com)
In this short video, we explain how to claim your #GoogleMyBusiness listing. Google My Business is an essential part of #GoogleMaps and #LocalSEO rankings.
It's a fairly easy process.
Sign in to your Google account and go to business.google.com/create to get started.
Fill in your business name. Select your business if it comes up. If not, select "Create a Business with this Name."
From here, the best practice is to answer "Yes" to the "serve customers at your location" question, even if it isn't true. Otherwise, you cripple your local rankings.
Technically, your business CAN show up in Google Maps without saying yes to this. Choosing yes can also prompt people to "Ask for Directions" to your location. However, we've seen much better local search results when we just say yes.
From here, you'll need to fill in your basic business information such as your address, phone number, category, etc. Google also asks about locations served. It also makes sense to add as many locations served as possible. (The more local relevance the better!)
At the end of the setup wizard, you'll definitely want to initiate the verification process by sending "Postcard by Mail" immediately. Once the postcard arrives, you'll want to log back in to the same Google account and enter the verification code. Once complete, your business will be eligible to show up in Google Maps.
You have basically just completed your first, most important #LocalSEOCitation. Google My Business is actually quite a bit more than just a #CitationSource, but it is the most vital one nonetheless.
If you want to show up local search, this is one of the first steps you need to knock out.
