Google Business Profile

Your customers are searching for your business on Google right now. But will they find you?

Customers can learn a great deal about a company simply by viewing its Google Business Profile (GBP). Without proper Google Business Profile optimisation, your listing won't show up when those customers search. This profile is designed to provide a complete overview, giving potential customers almost everything they need to make a decision at a glance, without even visiting your website.

  • Photos
  • Directions
  • Calls
  • Visibility

If you do not have a Google Business Profile, or if your profile is not properly maintained, those searchers may not find you at all. Meanwhile, your competitors are appearing with photos, reviews, and directions. Displaying reviews on your profile helps create a positive user experience, which can increase conversions and drive business growth. A well-maintained profile also signals to Google's algorithm that your business is active and trustworthy, helping improve your visibility in search results.

Google Business Profile gives you a powerful way to control how your business appears online.

How Rankings Work

How Google Business Profile SEO Works

Achieving strong local rankings through Google My Business SEO requires planning and expertise. Google needs time to understand your business, compare it with competitors, and build confidence in the signals around your profile.

Regular profile updates, accurate business information, and high-intent buying keywords all help create that momentum. Results don't happen overnight. Most businesses start seeing real movement within 6-8 weeks, and it keeps building from there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Google Business Profile optimisation (sometimes called GMB optimisation, GBP optimisation, or Google My Business SEO) is the process of structuring, populating, and continuously improving your Google Business Profile so it ranks higher in local search and the Google Map Pack. It includes category accuracy, keyword targeting, citations, backlinks, review activity, and ongoing engagement signals.
Local SEO is the broader discipline — it covers your website, citations, backlinks, on-page signals, and Google Business Profile together. GMB optimisation (or Google My Business SEO) is the part of local SEO focused specifically on your Google Business Profile. The two work together: a properly optimised GBP is the single biggest local SEO lever for most service businesses.
Our Google Business Profile optimisation service starts at £200/month for the first 3 months, then £249/month thereafter. The package includes citations, backlinks, keyword targeting, and monthly position monitoring. Most businesses see meaningful Map Pack movement within 6-8 weeks.
the Google Map Pack — the three local businesses that appear above organic listings — is driven entirely by your Google Business Profile. Without GMB optimisation, you're invisible to a huge portion of high-intent local searchers, regardless of how good your Do I need GMB optimisation if I already have a website? website is.
Each month we deliver 20,000 map citations across business directories, 250 trust-building backlinks, ongoing high-intent keyword targeting integrated into your GBP, and monthly position reporting. We also handle profile updates, post scheduling, and engagement tracking. The full breakdown is in the "What's Included" section above.
Most businesses see measurable Map Pack movement within 6-8 weeks, with results building from there. Google needs time to evaluate signals, compare you to competitors, and build confidence in your profile. We work to a 3-month minimum because anything shorter doesn't give the optimisation enough time to compound.
For most service businesses, GMB optimisation is the foundation — but it works best alongside review generation and reputation management. We offer a Google review management service for authentic review growth, and a content removal service for handling damaging articles or unwanted listings. Many clients run all three together.
No — and you should walk away from any provider who does. Google decides rankings based on competition, location, relevance, and authority, none of which any third party controls. What we guarantee is the work itself: proven optimisation methods, transparent reporting, and consistent effort focused on measurable progress.
