DAY 1 – Google My Business

Google My Business is an important part of getting your business to show up in Google search engine results.

Whether you are a service based business that goes to clients (like a farrier) or have a physical location (a stable or feed store), your potential customers are using Google to find you.  A well optimised Google My Business listing will help make you visible & in turn, get found online.

Watch the video below to find out more and how to set up a new listing or improve your current one.

YOUR DAY 1 TASK

• If you don’t have a Google My Business profile, your task is to set one up.
