Google My Business Map Listings

Be Brilliant

LET'S TALK ABOUT GMB'S!

The GMB is an essential element to every business, Upshot Solutions preaches that no matter what kind of business you have, an online store, a phone driven service, or brick and mortar building, every business needs a GMB map listing on Google/Google Maps.


When any one is searching for a service or product, they will either

A) Ask someone they know and trust "who offers this service / product? Where can I find it?"

or

B) Use those free Google searches and look online to find the product / service.


The businesses in the top 3 map listing results are 70% more likely to get that first phone call or visit from the customer. Of that 70%, 74% will check at least 5 reviews before even making a purchasing decision.


When you start to learn and realize the statistics and power of these GMB's, you will ponder on why you, or local business owners are not taking full advantage of these listings. They can only build more trust with the end consumer, and Google.


When you have a Google My Business Map Listing established on Google/Google Maps, you can hop over to Bing and set up Bing places for business using the same information.

THE GMB HEAT MAP

Our GMB heat map is generated by one of our tools to gauge your map listings ranking position for keywords in specific areas. Rather than driving all over town making the same Google searches to see where you rank (which is what we did when developing the tool) we can use this sophisticated state of the art software to see where your map listing ranks on a scale of 1 to 20 in specific areas.

 

Let's say we searched for "Kitchen Remodeling Contractor" and we we're located in the middle of downtown Philadelphia, PA. Your business map listing is either going to show up in the top results, or it's not. Then we go a couple miles east and we land in the same neighborhood as your office or GMB address.


Performing the same search for "Kitchen Remodeling Contractor" you might just show up in the top results. Either way, if your not 1, 2, or 3, your not being displayed on the first page. Remember, the top 3 businesses in the map listings get 70% of the phone calls and foot traffic.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK

MAJOR FUNCTIONS OF GMB'S

Paying For Google Ads

The first reason for a GMB is to boost your Google rankings and sales. We have already discussed how the top business map listings get the first phone calls, but we have not yet explained how you get into those top 3 positions. LasikPlus, who is the first business listing you see on the left, holds that spot because of the ads their paying for. They hold the 3rd position in the map listings. Which is ok because the more space they take up, the better. Where these people clearly dropped the ball is this, they're using the same phone number on both listings. You can actually change the number in the ad, or get one from google. Now how would they know if I called them from the Ad or their organic listing? This is why Tracking numbers are important. 73% of searches think ads are spam, then again, the other 27% find new products and brands because of ads.

Ranking Organically

Most people have been told you can simply rank a GMB, this is not the case. GMB follow the website, so if your website is ranking organically (below the maps) it will eventually get pulled up into the map listings. This is how it really works. Now of course this will vary in every city and every niche. Speedy Glass is a very large company and has locations all across the great United States of America. Just to prove a point, we optimized and ranked a website to take the first place,

Las Cruces Auto Glass. Only having 6 reviews, it still holds the top GMB position and organic position below the map listings, and still to this day generates over 200+ calls every month. This is the power of UpShot Solutions Search Engine Optimization which we hope to do for you. Still, the real work is ranking in major metropolitan areas, nation wide and globally for super competitive niches. With us, you don't need to search gmb services near me any more.  We can easily get you on Google Map dallas fort worth or anywhere else.




Another major function is to let customers know your in the area. When people type in a keyword (service/product) along with a city name i.e "Basket weaving in Flower Mound, TX". The Google bot is looking for certain criteria, like relevance, age / authority, and citations around the web. Google is going to show them who the most relevant business or website is first.

The Serps assign a particular value to your listing based on what they think your business offers on Google Map.


After choosing UpShot Solutions if some one specifically searches for relevant businesses for example lets say some one searched a keyword which don't make sense grammatically on Google or Google Map like: "best food dallas fort worth map google" your business will show up if it's on GMB and properly matches up with SERP listing.
