Owner-first setup
Your business should control the listing
Google requires real business ownership and verification. We can guide the process, but the profile should stay under an account your business controls.
- Find or create the profile under a Google account you own.
- Complete Google's verification steps.
- Add Honest Web Designs as a manager if you want setup help.
- Review the business facts, categories, photos, and website links.
- Keep the profile current when hours, services, or locations change.
Why it matters
Local customers often see Google before they see your website
When someone searches for a nearby business, Google may show map results, profile details, reviews, hours, photos, directions, and contact buttons before the regular website listing. If that profile is incomplete or inaccurate, customers may never make it to your site.
This work pairs well with a website refresh because your profile and site should tell the same story: what you do, where you serve, how to contact you, and why someone should trust you.
