Your business on Google Maps in Berlin: complete profile

Your competitors aren’t better: Google just understands them better.

I optimize your online visibility: your Google Business Profile, the right categories and searches, and the same details on social media, directories and maps, so Google shows you. I work with businesses in Berlin, in English.

What you get

Everything it takes for Google to understand your business, show you on the map and find the same details everywhere.

  • Complete Google Business Profile

    A description of what you do and where, the right categories, your services and your photos.

  • The same name everywhere

    Your business with the same name on Google, Instagram, Facebook, Apple Maps and every directory. When each place says something different, Google hesitates.

  • Correct hours and details

    Opening hours, phone and address matching on Google, Apple Maps and directories, so nobody arrives to find you closed.

  • In your name

    The profile stays in your name and I manage it with you. If it already exists and you do not control it, I claim it so it is in your name.

Who is it for?

For businesses that already have customers but do not show up on Google Maps, or show up with outdated details. It is just the profile, no website: if you choose a website, the profile is already included.

How long does it take?

1 to 2 weeks.

FAQ

Is Google Business Profile free?

Yes, creating the profile is free. What I do is complete it: the description, categories, services, photos and the same details everywhere. That is what makes Google show you higher on the map.

How do I get my business on Google Maps?

You need a Google Business Profile with a verified address. If one exists, it needs completing; if not, it gets created. Google then decides who to show based on how relevant and complete each profile is, how well known the business is and how far away the searcher is.

Do I need a website to show up on Google Maps?

No, you can show up with the profile alone. But a connected website gives Google more information about your business and helps you show up in more searches.

Is it for me if I sell a service but have no premises?

No. If you have no place where you see your customers (for example, everything happens online), a Google Business Profile is not for you: Google requires it for businesses that serve customers in person. In that case, a website is what you need.

What if my business is already on Google but I did not create it?

That happens a lot: Google creates listings from whatever it finds. I claim it so it is in your name and you can manage it.
