Google Business Profile - Your Key to Success with Local Search Northern Ireland

Posted on 8/3/2012 by VUDU

Let your business be discovered easily on Google searches

Does your local business show up on the Google Business Profile maps in Northern Ireland? Are you in the top results for your local area in Belfast or Northern Ireland? SEO for Google's Business Profile will optimise your local listing now so you can get a jump on your competition for those top spots.

When you do a search that specifically states a place, precedence of top rankings go to those sites that are already listed in Google Business Profile (GBP). GBP will even give them a detailed map of your location and easy to follow directions to your office or storefront.

Here are some tips to boost your Google Business Profile rankings:

• Get listed. Getting listed with Google Maps requires a simple application process followed by verification by mail or phone.

• When registering, make sure to assign your business to the listed categories that best describe it. You can add up to five categories.

• Add as much information as possible, including hours, payment types, e-mail address, phone number, URL/web address, photos and coupons.

• Make videos, upload them to YouTube and link them back into your local profile on Google Business Profile.

• One way to get into the top seven is to encourage customer reviews. The more reviews you get, the more likely you’ll land in the top seven.

Will your business be found on page one of a local keyword search in Google or Google Business Profile? As part of its web design and e-commerce strategies, Vudu offers extensive local keyword research to identify target phrases and evaluate existing ones, SEO for GBP with on-page optimisation, and submissions to Yahoo, Bing and targeted local directories.
