Six things every GBP optimization covers — each month.
Categories + attributes, dialed in
Primary + secondary categories chosen by what actually ranks for your service in Peterborough — not by what's most obvious.
Services + Q&A built out
Every service you offer becomes its own entity. Pre-loaded Q&A answers the questions Google will hide if you don't.
Photos that earn views
Geo-tagged photos at the right cadence. Google rewards profiles with regular, high-quality visual content.
Posts that signal activity
Weekly or bi-weekly Google Posts to keep the profile fresh — Google's algorithm reads inactivity as 'maybe closed'.
Reviews + responses
Automated review-request system + handcrafted responses to every review (good or bad) within 24 hours.
Insights reporting
Monthly: views, calls, direction requests, search queries you appeared for. The 4 numbers that matter — no fluff.
You probably need GBP work if any of these hit.
Six common patterns we see on local profiles in Peterborough — every one fixable in a focused 2-week sprint.
Your GBP is barely filled out
Missing services, no posts, 3 photos from 2019, wrong hours. Google reads that as 'low signal' and demotes you.
Competitors show photos, posts, Q&A — you don't
When customers compare profiles, the active one wins the click every time. You're losing on visual presence.
You have 2 reviews. Competitors have 47
Reviews are the #1 trust signal. The gap doesn't close on its own — it needs a system.
Your profile is suspended or hidden
Reinstatement is fixable but needs proper documentation and the right appeal language. Most owners give up.
You don't know what people search to find you
GBP Insights shows the exact queries — and most owners never look. Without this you're flying blind.
Wrong category, missing services
Picking 'Marketing Agency' when you're a 'Web Designer' tanks you for the searches that matter most.
