Know where you show on Google Maps, street by street.
Google Maps shows different businesses depending on where the person searching is standing. We check from 49 spots around your business every month, so you can see where you win and where rivals take the calls.
Included in Local Growth and Plus
Why it matters
Most map searches happen a mile or two from your door. Checking from one spot tells you almost nothing.
How it works
Pick the searches that matter
We choose up to five with you, such as “emergency plumber” or “boiler repair”.
We search from 49 spots
A 7 × 7 grid, 1 km apart, centred on your Google listing. Once a month, on the 1st.
You see the gaps
Where you're in the top 3, how that changed since last month, and who's first where you aren't.
What you’ll see
- A coloured grid for each search, on a real street map
- Top 3 spots and your average place, against last month
- The business that's first at each spot where you aren't
- A section in your monthly report, so the progress is on record
Questions
Do I need a Google Business Profile?
Yes. The grid looks for your listing on Google Maps. If you don't have one, we'll help you set it up as part of onboarding.
Is this useful if customers come to me?
Yes. Whether you travel to customers or they visit you, people choose from the businesses Google Maps shows near them. The grid shows how far from your door you're still one of them.
How is this different from keyword rankings?
Keyword rankings check one spot in each town every week, for search and the map. The grid checks 49 spots for your most important searches once a month, so you see the whole area.
