Google Business Profile · Middlesbrough & Teesside
A Google Business Profile that helps nearby customers choose you.
Your profile is often the first thing a local customer sees. We set it up accurately, so it is complete, consistent with your website and easy to trust.
Customers compare profiles before they compare websites.
Someone searching for a business nearby sees the profile in Google Search and Maps first. They look at the name, the categories, the hours, the photographs and the reviews, and they decide quickly.
A profile that is incomplete, out of date or inconsistent with your website gives them a reason to choose someone else. Setting it up properly is one of the simplest ways to make the rest of your marketing work harder.
We do the set-up and hand it over. We do not promise rankings, because nobody honestly can. We make sure the foundations are right and the information is accurate.
What we set up
The parts of the profile that customers actually read.
Categories and services
The right primary and secondary categories, and a services list that describes what you really do in the words customers use.
Service areas and location
Your service areas stated plainly. Where a business has no premises customers can visit, we set it up as a service-area business rather than showing an address that is not genuine.
Hours and contact details
Opening hours, phone number and website, kept identical to your website so Google and customers see one consistent business.
Photographs
Guidance on the photographs that help, and your images uploaded and labelled properly.
Posts and updates
A starting set of posts, and a simple way for you to add offers or news yourself.

Before you ask
Common questions
Can you guarantee my business will rank in Google Maps?
No, and be wary of anyone who says they can. We set the profile up accurately and completely, which is what we control. How it ranks depends on many factors, including competition, reviews and how close a customer is.
I do not have a shop. Can I still have a profile?
Often, yes, as a service-area business. Google has eligibility rules about addresses, and we follow them. We will not put an address on your profile that customers cannot genuinely visit.
I already have a profile. Can you improve it?
Yes. We review what is there, correct anything inaccurate or missing, and tell you what is worth changing. Sometimes a few small fixes are all it needs.
Who owns the profile?
You do. It stays under your own Google account, and we are given access only for as long as the work needs it.
