How do I get my business into the Google local map pack?

I run a local service business. Competitors appear in the map results but I do not. What matters most?

The local map pack is driven mainly by three things: relevance, distance and prominence. You cannot change distance, but you can improve the other two.

  • Complete your Google Business Profile. Choose the most accurate primary category, add services, hours, photos and a clear description.
  • Get reviews steadily. Ask happy customers for honest reviews and reply to every review, good or bad.
  • Keep your name, address and phone identical everywhere: your website, profile and directory listings.
  • Build local pages. A clear service page for each main service and location helps relevance.
  • Earn local links and mentions from local news, associations and partners.

Results usually build over weeks, not days, so stay consistent.
