What the Map Pack is
When someone searches for a service near them, Google usually shows a map with three businesses under it. That group is called the Map Pack or Local Pack, and it often sits above the regular search results. Your Google Business Profile is what gets you in.
Fill out every part of your profile
Choose the most accurate primary category, add secondary categories for your other services, set your service area, and list your hours. Add services with short descriptions. A complete profile gives Google more reasons to show you.
Add real photos, often
Upload photos of your team, trucks and finished jobs. Fresh photos show the business is active and help customers trust you before they call.
Ask every happy customer for a review
Reviews are one of the most visible parts of your profile. Make asking a habit: send a short text with your review link after every finished job, and reply to every review, good or bad.
Keep your name, address and phone consistent
Your business name, address and phone number should match everywhere they appear online: your website, Facebook, Yelp and directories. Mismatches confuse customers and search engines.
Post updates
Google lets you share posts on your profile for offers, seasonal tips and news. Regular posts keep your profile active and give searchers one more reason to choose you.
