Google my business: Quick-Guide

Google My Business (GMB) is a free tool that lets you manage how your business appears on Google Search and Maps. That includes adding your business name, location, and hours; monitoring and replying to customer reviews; adding photos; learning where and how people are searching for you, and more.

Through Google My Business you can post photos and offers, get reviews and promote your business and website on maps and in searches. You should log into your Google My Business account to update your address, phone number, website, and open hours to help customers find and connect with your business. Keep your profile updated with fresh photos, special offers, and promotions to make it easy for customers to choose you.

Google My Business also has an app that is free (Android, iOS) where you can manage the features in your web account.

Google My Business encompasses what was once known as Google Places for Business, Google Listings, and Google+ Business Pages.
