Increase Visibility on the Internet<\/h3>\n<p>The first benefit of Google My Business, you can increase the visibility of your business on the internet, especially search engines.<\/p>\n<p>Your business profile can appear on Google pages without you creating your own new <em>website<\/em> .<\/p>\n<p>This can be very profitable because developing your own <em>website<\/em> for a new company is not easy and takes a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Internet residents will slowly glance at your shop, and may make transactions. Quoted from HootSuite, Google My Business is perfect for <em>offline<\/em> store businesses .<\/p>\n<p>If you want to further market your business <em>digitally<\/em> , seriously want to do it <em>online<\/em> , then you can try other <em>tools<\/em> from Google such as Google Adsense.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2805\" src=\"https:\/\/matob.web.id\/random\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/07\/Google-My-Business-2.jpg\" alt=\"Google My Business 2\" width=\"1600\" height=\"902\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matob.web.id\/random\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/07\/Google-My-Business-2.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/matob.web.id\/random\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/07\/Google-My-Business-2-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/matob.web.id\/random\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/07\/Google-My-Business-2-1536x866.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. Business is Easy for Customers to Reach<\/h3>\n<p>The next benefit of Google Business is that you can reach a wider range of customers without having to search for customers.<\/p>\n<p>That means let customers who themselves come to your business store on Google My Business. You can also tell the whereabouts of your business to customers.<\/p>\n<p>Another reach feature from Google, is Google Maps. It&#8217;s a shame if your business isn&#8217;t listed on Google Maps.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, everyone is looking for information through the internet, so let people reach your business through the internet too<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a population of 1 billion Google Maps users, so it&#8217;s unlikely that there won&#8217;t be a single person who doesn&#8217;t find your business.<\/p>\n<p>Not only locally, Google My Business can also promote your business globally so that it can reach a wider market.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Business Promotion<\/h3>\n<p>Google My Business can be an affordable digital marketing strategy. You can use Google&#8217;s features for free, as long as they are maximized.<\/p>\n<p>Continue to fill your <em>online<\/em> store space with various information that convinces potential customers.

This makes it even easier for potential customers to find your business page.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a Google My Business profile can also improve local SEO. This can make competition easier.<\/p>\n<p>Not many local businesses have taken advantage of the Google Business feature. That way there are not many businesses circulating on Google Maps.<\/p>\n<p>Your potential to be chosen by customers on the internet is greater than any other business that doesn&#8217;t have a Google My Business profile, nor has your business listed on Google Maps.<\/p>\n<p>Now you have two <em>channels<\/em> , a physical store ( <em>offline <\/em><em>store<\/em> ) and an <a href=\"https:\/\/matob.web.id\/random\/tips\/how-to-optimize-online-store-seo\/\"><em>online<\/em> store<\/a> .<\/p>\n<h3>5. Obtain Customer <em>Reviews<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Another benefit of Google My Business that you can&#8217;t get directly from the <em>offline<\/em> store, is customer reviews.<\/p>\n<p>Google My Business provides a one-room feature for customers who want a different experience buying products in your store.<\/p>\n<p>This can mean beneficial or detrimental. Positive customer reviews certainly add to the credibility of your business and convince other potential customers.<\/p>\n<p>While a bad review can bring down your business name, it can also be used as a company evaluation.<\/p>\n<p>Both good and bad <em>reviews , you should still respond to all these comments openly and warmly.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Maintaining close communication with customers can always save your business.<\/p>\n<p>Reviews from customers can also be a support to increase brand awareness.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Creating a Google My Business Profile<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you still don&#8217;t know how to create a Google My Business profile, the following Matob Creative Studio will explain <em>step by step<\/em> to create a Google My Business profile.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. <em>Sign up for<\/em> a New Account<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The first step to join Google My Business, you need to create an account first.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t cost anything to create a Google My Business account, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about adding to your budget.<\/p>\n<p>You can also update your business profile at any time.
