The profile can place your hours, phone, directions, photos, reviews, and website in Search and Maps. It must be controlled by the business and kept current.

• A profile already controlled by an old employee or vendor.
• A name that differs from the real-world business name.
• Wrong hours, phone, website, address, or service area.
• Duplicate profiles for one location.

• Search the exact business name and city first.
• Claim an existing profile or add the business through Google.
• Complete the verification option Google provides.
• Match the website details and test call, directions, and link.

We can clean up the website and profile path. Google controls verification and display, so we cannot promise a method, completion time, or ranking.
