Google Maps Optimization

The newest and fastest way to success on the web.

What is Google Maps Optimization?

In Google, search results pages are comprised of organic results and paid results which are on the left and right sides of the Google page respectively. However, a feature that Google has implemented that is also very important is the Google Maps or Google Local Business Center results. These results show up typically above the organic results for specific queries that are related to a geographic area. The idea behind these results is that they return "local business results". The image below shows you a typical Google page with the LBC or Maps section near the top of the page and the subsequent top 7 results.

Why do I need Google Maps or Local Business Optimization?

Generic searches for services such as "cpa", "lawyer", "doctor", "real estate agent", "computers" and other searches, Google returns the LOCAL BUSINESS RESULTS for the area that you are searching from as shown in the image above.
Local searches account for a large portion of the internet's overall searches performed. This indicates a trend that consumers are using Google to search for anything and nearly everything, even local companies.
Google is starting to implement the "Local Business Results" section more and more in search results pages and they will likely continue to do so and that users are increasingly expecting personalized and localized data.
Users are seeking data from smaller hand-held devices. Local search results will be highly used for convenience and those ranked at the top of Local Business results, will have that exposure.
