If your local business hasn’t claimed its “place” in Google Places, you’re missing out! Google data shows up to 20% of all searches request a specific location. What does 20% mean to your business? Well, in 2013, Google worldwide search was 2.16 trillion. That means 432 billion searches utilized a location in the search phrase. And it’s not a far leap to assume that many of those local searches involved your geography.
Claiming your presence in Google Places meant your business or service will display on local search results and in Google maps. It’s not a luxury anymore; it’s a necessity.
Think about your own behavior as a consumer and how you locate services such as a florist, for example. Are you grabbing the phone book or are you grabbing your smartphone? When someone requests any local search result, Google simply digs into the Google Places listigs and returns those businesses who are listed there.
