Does your site say what you do and where?#
Google matches searches to words on your pages. If your homepage says "Welcome" but never says "plumber in your town", Google has little to go on.
Is your Business Profile set up?#
For local searches, Google leans on your Business Profile. If it's missing or half filled in, you'll struggle to show up nearby.
Is your site new or hidden?#
A brand new site can take a few weeks to appear. Some sites are also set to stay hidden by mistake, which a quick check can catch.
- Put what you do and where on your homepage.
