If a search for your business on Google Maps comes up empty, simply choose “add a missing place” from the drop-down menu.
The next step is to “claim” your Google Maps listing. This will enable you to add additional information to your listing, which will help your ranking.
Select the “info” tab and optimize your listing by:
- Ensuring precise consistency when it comes to your business name, hours, phone number, etc.
- Including as many compelling details and high-quality photos as possible
- Asking for reviews
