ILLUSTRATIVE STRUCTURE

01 / GUIDE

Prepare consistent business information.

Name & contact details

Use the real-world business name, a business-controlled contact number and accurate opening hours. Keep the website and profile consistent.

Eligibility & service area

Check profile eligibility against how the business serves customers. Describe real service areas; do not use virtual-office addresses to cover additional cities.

Photos & evidence

Prepare work, product or location photos you have rights to use. Publish only real projects and feedback, with permission for the information shown.

MEASURE THE RIGHT STEP

A click is not yet a customer.

Track these steps separately; do not add them together as a customer count.

  1. Impressions

    Record the source and period.

  2. Contact clicks

    An action on the website.

  3. Actual enquiries

    Received by a person.

02 / GUIDE

The website answers practical questions.

Clear services

Explain what you do, who it suits, the process and its limits. Add questions drawn from actual enquiries.

Useful local content

Create an area page when there is distinct information: service conditions, real work or useful local details. Changing a city name in the same text adds little for visitors.

Easy contact

Check call, Zalo and form links on mobile. Define who handles enquiries and how; a button click does not prove a conversation took place.

03 / GUIDE

Measure before expanding.

Record a baseline

Record periods, sources and changes made. Compare suitable periods and note seasonality where relevant.

Separate the metrics

Impressions and clicks describe interactions in each tool. Qualified enquiries and orders need confirmation from the business process.

Improve what the evidence shows

If people view pages but rarely enquire, review clarity, evidence and contact paths. Do not treat a fixed Maps position or enquiry volume as guaranteed.

FAQ

Before deciding.

Can an online-only business create a profile?

No. An online-only business that does not meet customers in person is not eligible. If you serve customers at your premises or visit them, check the applicable requirements in the official guidance linked on this page.

Do we need many city pages?

Only where you genuinely serve customers and have distinct, useful content. A clear service page and service-area description can be a sensible start.

LET’S DEFINE THE REQUIREMENTS

Can local customers find you on Maps?

Share your Google Maps profile if you have one, or your business name and service area. We will suggest the first steps.
