WHAT IS GOOGLE MY BUSINESS?
Google My Business is a tool created by Google to help businesses gain more visibility, manage and advertise their business online via the search engine.
Having a Google My Business profile
helps potential customers to discover your business and all of the key information they need to get in contact with you regarding your product/services.
A Google My Business profile listing is home to your business identity (name and logo), location (Google My Business is linked to your location on Google Maps), website address, phone number, email, opening hours, photos, announcements and most importantly a place for customers to
leave a review of your business.
