traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Integrate PRT with Google Tools for a Comprehensive View<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another high-yield strategy with ProRankTracker is integration with Google\u2019s tools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Analytics and Google Search Console give highly relevant information for local search that combines with ProRankTracker\u2019s data to provide an even more comprehensive view of your ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, you can pull your data from PRT (and other Google tools) into Google Looker Studio to generate visualizations that will help you understand your ranks and other SEO data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have some technical

Optimize Your Google Business Profile for Ranking<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know how you rank on Google Maps, let<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019s discuss optimizing your Google Business Profile for better ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t start with an optimized Google Business Profile, you might as well not check your ranks at all \u2013 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they\u2019ll be low.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following these steps will give your profile a fighting chance against your competitors and ensure that you can take advantage of the traffic when it comes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep Your Information Up to Date<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If someone finds your business on Google Maps, but your address and phone number are outdated, what good did it do you?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NONE!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why keeping your business\u2019s info up to date on Google is the MOST CRUCIAL step of this entire process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to regularly check and update ALL of the following fields:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Business description<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hours<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phone number\/other contact<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Location<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Menu\/offerings (if applicable)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photos<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping these bits of info up to date ensures that your Google Maps traffic c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">an turn into <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">new customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Target Local Keywords<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re updating your business description, be sure to target valuable local keywords that will bring traffic your way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What do I mean by \u201cvaluable\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your keywords should reflect the search intent of your target customer. For example, compare the following keywords for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">an imaginary bike shop:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mountain bikes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best bike mechanic Providence<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which one is more likely to bring searchers looking for a local shop to get their ride tuned up?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Targeting these local keywords will match your searcher\u2019s intent much closer, which increases the overall value of your traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Post Regularly to Your Google Business Profile<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Posting regular updates to your Google Business profile is another great way to optimize.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regular posts to your profil<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">e let you stay at<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the top of your customers\u2019 minds, but it also signals to Google that your business is highly active (which lets the algorithm know to rank your business higher).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another valuable <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">post type on you<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">r Google Business Profile is responses to reviews. By responding promptly to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/proranktracker.com\/blog\/7-ways-to-maximize-your-google-business-profile-reviews\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">customer reviews<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you\u2019ll show potential customers that you value their input and are committed to providing top-notch service. It\u2019s also a<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">n excellent way to deal<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/proranktracker.com\/blog\/fake-google-reviews\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fake Google reviews<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by catching them early.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Get More Reviews<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google prioritizes pages that it thinks offer value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the best ways to indicate to Google that you offer value to your customers is to rack up a bunch of positive reviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, most happy customers don\u2019t think to leave a great review (but often the disgruntled customers do!).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do you fix that?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASK!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whenever you have an experience with a happy customer, just ask them to drop you a positive review on Google. There are several ways to get this done:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A short email survey that automatically gives the option to leave a Google review to anyone who gives positive feedback<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A business card at checkout that has a QR code to leave a Google review<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A follow-up email asking customers to leave feedback if they were satisfied with their experience<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Asking face-to-face\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However you do it, just get it done!
