Frequently asked questions
Why does a Google Business Profile matter?
It is the key to local search and Maps. NAP (name, address, phone), category, photos, and reviews drive both clicks and call conversions. For an SME with a website the profile is a second homepage.
Can the profile replace a website?
No. The profile handles discovery and trust; the offer, service pages, and form close on the site. Together they carry local SEO.
How do you optimize the profile?
Correct category, complete NAP, regular photos, services list, product/service copy, review replies, and the same facts as the website. Conflicting address or phone hurts local ranking.
Do reviews affect SEO?
Indirectly yes: they lift clicks, trust, and Maps engagement. Fake reviews and unanswered complaints hurt trust. Real customer reviews plus a short reply is the cleanest path.
