The reality for most tradies

The problem

When a homeowner has an emergency or needs a major renovation quote, they search Google. If you're not top 3, you don't exist.

Common questions

What is the Google Map Pack?

The block of three local businesses with a map that appears above the ordinary results when somebody searches for a service near them. On a phone it is usually the first thing people tap.

Is Google Business Profile more important than my website?

For local results the profile carries a large share of the weight — category, reviews, photos and consistent details all matter. The website supports it. Neither works as well on its own.

What are citations, and why do they need cleaning up?

Citations are listings of your business name, address and phone number on other sites and directories. When they disagree — an old address here, a different number there — it undermines confidence in which details are right. Cleanup makes them consistent.

How much do reviews affect local ranking?

Recent, steady reviews carry more weight than a pile collected years ago. That is why review collection is wired into job completion rather than left as an occasional favour to remember to ask for.
