As a local business, it’s crucial to have a Google Business Profile (GBP) that accurately reflects your business. One essential aspect of your profile is your service area, which tells potential customers the geographic locations where you offer services. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to add or change your service area on your Google Business Profile.

  1. Sign in to the Google account that manages your business, then search for your business name on Google (or open your profile in the Google Maps app).

  2. Click Edit profile, then open the Location section (sometimes shown as Location and areas).

  3. Find Service area and click to edit it.

  4. Add the places you serve, such as cities, regions, or postal codes. You can add several, so include everywhere you cover.

  5. Click Save. Your service area now shows on your profile.

Editing your business’ service area on your Google Business Profile will help customers find your business - and ensure that you get a lot of localized traffic!

Additionally, adding a service area ensures that customers don’t waste time figuring out whether or not your business is in their area. It’s a win-win!
