Categories

Primary category has outsized influence. Check what the top three local competitors use before choosing.

Services and products

Attributes and hours

Special hours, accessibility attributes and payment options are small fields that affect both visibility and conversion.

Photos

Regular, genuine photos correlate with engagement. Stock imagery does not.

Q&A

You may seed your own questions and answer them factually. Most businesses leave this section to strangers.
