Getting your business onto Google Maps

If your business is not on Google Maps yet, you are invisible to the people searching for you right now. KM Results creates and verifies your Google Business Profile, sets the right categories, services, photos and hours, and gets your listing ready to rank. Whether you have a shopfront or travel to customers anywhere in Ireland, we get you on the map.

Getting onto Google Maps is free, and you can do it yourself. But there are a few decisions early on that make a big difference later, and a lot of businesses get them wrong without realising.

How to get on Google Maps: the basics

1. Create your Google Business Profile

Your Maps listing comes from a Google Business Profile. You create one with a Google account, enter your business name exactly as it appears in real life, and choose whether customers visit you, you visit them, or both.

2. Choose the right primary category

This is the single most important setting. It tells Google what your business is. Pick the category that best matches your main service, not a broad one that sounds good.

3. Verify the profile

Google needs to confirm you are a real business. Depending on your business, that might be a video, a phone or email code, or a postcard. Your listing will not appear properly on Maps until this is done.

4. Fill in everything

Verification is required. A verified, complete Google Business Profile is needed to appear on Google Maps.

Three ranking factors. Google says local results are based on relevance, distance and prominence.

Only three shown. The Map Pack at the top of local searches lists just three businesses.

Being on the map is not the same as being found

Here is the bit nobody tells you. Once your profile is live, you are on Google Maps, but that does not mean anyone will see you. For most searches, Google shows just three businesses at the top. If you are number eight or number fifteen, you are technically on the map, but customers rarely scroll that far.

So getting listed is step one. Step two is ranking. That means building reviews, strengthening relevance with the right services and content, and making your business more prominent than the competition nearby.

Do it right the first time

We set up your Google Business Profile properly from day one, then move straight into our Google Maps ranking work to push you into the Top 3. It saves you months of trial and error.

It also avoids the common traps that get new listings suspended, like adding keywords to your business name or using a virtual office address.
