How Google Business Profile work is handled, from audit and cleanup through optimization and ongoing management. Your GBP is critical for local visibility—this page explains how we approach setup, cleanup, and ongoing management.
Your Google Business Profile is one of the strongest signals Google uses to rank local service businesses. When someone searches for "plumber near me" or "HVAC repair Bend," your profile appears in local search results and on Google Maps.
Some businesses just need a one-time cleanup and optimization. Others benefit from ongoing monthly management with posts, updates, and review monitoring. This page explains both approaches and how we determine what makes sense for your situation.
We review your current GBP listing(s), checking categories, photos, description, NAP (Name, Address, Phone) consistency, and reviews. We identify what's missing, what's incorrect, and what could be improved.
We update business information, fix categories, rewrite descriptions, and organize key visuals. We ensure everything is accurate, complete, and optimized for local search.
We set up posts, services, FAQs, and other relevant fields to improve visibility and help potential customers find the information they need.
For businesses in competitive markets or those that want to maximize local visibility, ongoing GBP management helps maintain and improve performance over time.
We post regularly to keep your profile active and show Google (and potential customers) that your business is current and engaged. Posts can highlight services, seasonal offers, recent work, or helpful tips.
We monitor reviews and respond (if desired) to maintain a professional presence. We also provide insights on review trends and guidance on review response strategy.
We keep your information updated: hours, services, seasonal changes, and any other details that need to stay current. We also sync with Apple Business Connect (Apple Maps) and Bing Places for consistency.
We watch insights for search terms, visibility trends, and how people are finding and interacting with your profile. You get a simple monthly summary showing what's working.
We coordinate GBP strategy with your website and Google Ads (if you're running them) to ensure consistent messaging, offers, and positioning across all channels.
Some businesses just need a one-time cleanup and optimization. If your GBP is in good shape but needs some fixes, or if you're in a less competitive market, a one-time project might be all you need.
Others benefit from ongoing monthly management, especially in competitive markets where staying active and visible matters. Ongoing management helps you maintain momentum, respond to reviews promptly, and keep your profile optimized as your business evolves.
