The better you optimize your business, the better your chances are for showing in the google search in your local area. Why Is Google Maps Marketing So Important? Google has about 3.5 billion searches per day and accounts for 88% of all mobile searches. 76% of the local searches are directly translated into sales an visit the store within a day. Google maps marketing can impact in a way that how google views your business and how it will appear in the organic search result in what is known as the local 3-pack. The results of Google Maps (local3-pack) appear in this Google Search at the top of the page. Google Maps will bring thousands of potential customers into your company. Unless your company ranks in the 3-pack, you’re exponentially less likely to be found on the first page of search engines. That is why Maps marketing is considered to be the most important facet of local SEO work. Furthermore, Google Maps SEO can play a huge role in optimizing GMB for local based search results.

Also, you can add two categories one as primary and another as secondary. For how the GMB Should look like, you can look at the GMB of our website. On-Page SEO In this on-page section follow the different processes that I am going to describe. Make sure link path from the homepage to each city page

  3. Create City path –/city-st/ While You are targeting the local audience there should be the link path from the homepage to each city page. Like u have certain business and operating the business in a different part of the country. For example, u have a business in Nepal and your business operates in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Biratnagar, and Nepalgunj. So to create a separate page for each city, like let’s take your business domain as abc.com so for Pokhara your city page would be abc.com/pokhara for Pune  abc.com/pune. It helps when from the particular location people search about your business-related search then you have the possibility to appear in the search engine result. For the real example, let’s look at two pages from the Oyo below.

  4. Create 5-10 POI City Pages Link back to GMB URL page embedded driving direction from POI to GMB Address If service areas with no address, embedded custom my map with both on them Write some POI (Point of interest) articles and link to that POI article to the GMB URL Pages. Also at the end of the POI article, you can Embed driving direction from POI to GMB Address. If the service areas don’t have an address, embedded custom my map with both on them. Get an article written about the city put article on the city page Try city-related youtube videos with little text Just embedding Maps, NAP and Schema Embedded driving direction from the city center to GMB via secure firebox profile You can write an article about the city and put that article on the city page. With the above example abc.com/mumbai you can write an article about the business challenges in Mumbai, so your  URL will be for that abc.com/mumbai/businesss-challanges- in-Mumbai. You can also Embedded driving direction from the city center to GMB via a secure firebox profile.  You can also use a different schema on your pages.

Also at the end of the POI article, you can Embed driving direction from POI to GMB Address. Create at least 1 inner page targeting that location. Title: Main target Keywords + Brand exactly as in the GMB H1: (Exact category as in the GMB) URL SLUG: Exact category as in the GMB While writing an article, the title should contain the main keywords plus brand name exactly as you have in the GMB. Eg. for Oyo, Oyo is a brand name. So if they have to write articles they should include their brand name in the title. Suppose they write an article about the condition of hotels in Nepal their title would be: Condition of hotels in Nepal | Oyo Here the first line is the main targeted keyword and the second Oyo is the brand name of the company. In H1 Tags you should use the exact category as you have in the GMB. Also, the URL Slug should be the exact category as you have in the GMB.
