Getting found on Google

A short read · 3 min

There’s no trick that puts a shop at the top of Google overnight, and anyone who promises one is guessing. What does help is making it easy for Google to understand who you are, what you do and where you are.

Start with the basics on your website: a clear page title with your shop’s name and what you do, your neighborhood or town written out in plain text, your hours and contact details as real text (not inside an image), and a site that works well on phones and loads quickly. Secure https matters too. These are all things a PixelStoop makeover takes care of.

Off your website, a free Google Business Profile is one of the most useful things a local shop can have, because it’s what shows up on Google Maps. Keep its hours and details matching your website, and ask happy customers to leave an honest review. Together, a clear site and a complete profile give you the best fair shot at being found.
