- What are the best Google My Business SEO techniques to rank N#1 on Google maps?
This is a question I get asked all the time by local business owners.
Optimizing your google my business listing or, what is now known as your Google Business Profile, is actually quite simple.
In this video, I go through the most effective tried and tested Google My Business SEO tactics you can use to claim the top spots on Google maps.
No fancy hacks or shortcuts that could result in your listing being suspended. Just good old-fashioned search engine optimisation based on data and research.

Probably the most consistently helpful and descriptive TH-cam channel there is when it comes to the tactics that really matter. There's always a full explanation, so you're not left scratching your head as to what should be done next.
Thank you so much for your kind comment Jonathan
I've watched a lot of guides and tutorials on many topics, but few are as clear and concise as this! Amazing!
Wow, thanks so much Jim
Your content, as always, is well-researched, well-organized, and well-delivered. I went from knowing zero about SEO to getting my wife's small business to the top of local search in 9 months following many of the strategies that you suggest. The GMB Everywhere tool seems incredible, and I will download it as soon as it's available again. Thank you!!
Thanks so much Justin
Thank you so much for making this clarification between Google my business and Google business profile. I am in the process of setting up my Google business profile and I have watched so many TH-cam videos trying to figure this out and I could not even answer that simple question. Period. I know there had been changes made but people just weren’t explaining it. Thank you so much. I am definitely about to watch a bunch of your videos. What I found out was instead of telling people how to do things most videos give you just enough information to figure it out on your own if you want to spend countless hours but they really are just steering you towards their ownonline marketing service
I know I know. I'm glad this video was useful to you
The first video I've ever watched about local seo and someone from the UK as well. Will be watching more - Keep up the great work
Many thanks
I think you mean someone ‘in’ the uk, not ‘from’ the uk. 😊
@@Omlittlebuddha Reviews are very essential part of Ranking if you want SEO based Google Map Positive Reviews, I can manage at very affordable cost, it will increase your ratings and ranking both. Feel free to contact me. Thanks
I'm going to continue to shower you w/ praises, and share your videos with all my friends who have business and are willing to put the work in to improve their rankings on Google maps. Your videos are so practical and effective, therefore I am forever a RA subscriber and pupil.
😊Many thanks Frank for watching, sharing and your glowing compliments. Very humbling.
Excellent content as usual. You are now my go to guru! Love how you clearly present the detail and provide resources such as this cheat sheet! Keep it coming.
Many thanks Alisha
To anyone looking for how to really do SEO - this is it. I've done the same exact things with great success for over ten years. Very well presented, very solid info. And he's right that most agencies don't want to do this manual work. It's not magic and there are no tricks. It just takes work and a little knowledge. Well done sir!
Thank you so much Randall
@@rankingacademy at 0:14 mark where is this graph analysis feature?
Yet another great video, Luc. You're absolutely spot on with all your suggestions. I must say, if you're looking to rank your local business on Google My Business in 2022, the information you provide will get you there. Great job and thanks again for all the hard work you do in this community.
Thanks so much Frank
@@rankingacademy please can u tell me the link u use to find out the keywords and which is more common in rank
I can't thank you enough. I'm heading a marketing team for our food chain franchise company. We hire a SEO agency to do a SEO for our franchisees. We wasn't that satisfy with the agency efforts and the end result. Therefore, I have decided to understand SEO myself better and here I am landed on your video. You made my life so much easy by providing detailed step to step guide in a short video. I have been cracking my head for past few days on the same topic but the information I gathered wasn't that detailed and on point as yours. I can't wait to try and test your guide. Thank you 🙏
You are very welcome. I'm glad I can help. Thanks so much for watching and your kind comment
I run $100,000 a month through Google ads. I have a team of three on my marketing. The best thing we could’ve done was hire a SEO manager in house. I can tell you after 20 years of doing this that using vendors are great for certain things. But when it comes to big things like SEO and PPC you do not use vendors. You’ll burn money you’ll burn through different vendors you’ll never be satisfied. Find a rockstar pay them well and you will reap the benefits for years. SEO isn’t a vendor service.
So what did you apply for your business can you please share?
@@lostsoul4317 yeah can you share
when you combine theory with practical it just becomes a great video to learn from. Thanks
Many thanks Shahan
Thanks for your videos. They're an amazing, no BS, treasure trove of information. As a long time marketer and website designer, I see a lot of garbage but you're content is always spot on.
Wow, thank you Joe
Finally caught up. I can confirm how important reviews are to an online business. Not just the number of stars but how you deal with the reviews. Many business do not realise that they should reply to reviews, especially the one and two star ones.
Firstly a review is part of a conversation. Someone is talking to you. So reply to them. If you get a bad review how you deal with it can make or break your business. I know of a local food outlet which decided to attack one of its reviewers personally because he gave a poor review. That business is no longer in business. If they had apologised for his experience then asked for him to contact them privately to deal with it that would shown that they are a business which cares. That reflects well on the business. That means other customers are more likely to use your business. Yes a customer did not have a good time. But you are taking steps to resolve that problem.
As a quick tip. Each reply does not need to be more than three lines usually, unless you feel more needs to be added. And no stock phrases.
Many thanks for your contribution Big Blue
You are very generous to give us this information. I am studying your advices so I have a huge advantage over others who don't make the effort and soon I am going to offer this Profile optimization as a service here in Switzerland. I think the results will be overwhelming and I look forward to it. Thank you for making this possible
Wonderful! Best of luck
Wow. Thank you for this video!! Well explained,. No long intros and on point.
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
My search has ended! Finally a video that is clear, concise, very well explained and chock full of useful info. Very well done, you have a new sub and look foward to watching many more of your videos! Many thanks!
Awesome, thank you Damian
Thank you much for sharing your knowledge. I have watched a great deal of your videos and I have been very impressed with in-depth information. I would also like to say your techniques work. Thanks again, all the best. Michael
Thanks a lot Michael. Much appreciated
Short and efficient as always, keep up with the good work sir. My thanks 🙏
So nice of you. Thanks Sami
Everything is clear. Brief and clear. No water. Thank you)
My pleasure
I have been looking for best GMB seo tutorial past few days finally I got ur channel can't thank uh enough
Happy to hear that! Thanks a lot Shielu
I stopped following other SEO gurus since I found your channel, Sir. I don't want to follow fake gurus anymore. The tutorial is awesome as usual. Sir, I have a request please make a tutorial about INTER LINKING with practical implementation. If the tutorial is 1-hour long then it doesn't matter cause it's better to follow a single long video than follow 10 short videos. #Thanks.
Many thanks Alami. I will add your request to my list
Can you do a more in depth video on how to use GMB everywhere? Seems like a great toll.
Also, what do you think of services like Yext or other listing services?
Hi Dan. I will add your request to my list. I'm personally not a fan of listing services. You can submit your own details to the top directories manually and be done with it once and for all
Hi Dan- 74 percent searching local will look for someone in 5 mile radius . Listing Mgt gives relevancy , but doesn’t help rank
Excellent!! Your videos are always helpful and clear. Thanx a lot!!
Many thanks Vicente
Crisp, smart way of explaining, necessary and sufficient information. That was helpful. Thank you.
Glad you think so. thanks for watching
I wish you has talked more about Proximity. It is SO important that it outweighs just about every other factor you spoke about. Can you do a video that addresses how to work around the proximity limitations?
I talked about the factors you can influence directly in the easiest manner. While proximity is definitely key, unless you relocate your business (which most people won't do) you won't be able to leverage it.
@@rankingacademy can you talk about factors and tips for business listed with a service area and not address
Yes please, can you please explain why some service businesses(pressure cleaning my case)use their address and rank better for the bigger cities. While I use a service area as the guidelines suggest?
@@TomPeerless I can answer your question. Because they have a store front as well. You don’t have a store front/office (home office dies not count). You can’t post your address if you operate from home office. I am in the same boat (cleaning service). I only listed my service area. I don’t have a red pin on the map. It is a disadvantage. Do NOT list your home office as a business address, my account was suspended and it took me months to fix it. I did not know.
@Rachel Amundsen 90% of my competition does this wrong and they are never penalized for it.
Does it bug anyone else how often Google unnecessarily changes the well-known names of their products? Adwords to just Ads, GMB to Google Business Profile 🙄
Yes, me 😉
Yes
YESSSSSS
I hate that they have literally no support
Same. Im my opinion they create a very non user friendly environment for business owners to make people give up. They constantly move the goal post so why should any of us believe what marketers say? I want to see some real proof
This is a great channel! I only caught sight of you folks in recent times, but it’s now among my favourite channels.
Many thanks Neeth
AGAIN! A great video from you ✌🏼😎
