Key Takeaways
If your Google Business listing is problematic, don't waste time trying to fix it yourself; hire a specialist familiar with Google's system, or focus on alternative strategies.
Aim to rank #1 on Google below the sponsored ads and Google Business listings by consistently posting on social media, especially Facebook and YouTube.
Create a professional business website (even using platforms like Wix) and embed your website's URL in all social media posts and videos to help Google's crawlers find and prioritize your business.
Utilize video content (even simple advertisement videos) on social media, making sure to show your face to optimize for both Google's algorithm and customer engagement.
Post daily on your business and personal Facebook pages, and weekly in relevant community groups. Tag your service areas and use hashtags to increase visibility and reach potential clients.
Prioritize keeping potential clients within the Facebook ecosystem by encouraging direct messages (PMs) rather than directing them to email or external websites, as Facebook's algorithm rewards on-platform engagement.
