How to add your business to Google Maps

Adding your business to Google Maps is free. You do it by creating a Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business).

Steps

  1. Go to business.google.com and sign in with a Google account you'll keep using for the business.
  2. Search for your business name. If it already exists, claim it. If not, choose to add it.
  3. Pick your main category carefully. For a roofer, that's "Roofing contractor."
  4. If customers don't come to you, choose a service area instead of showing your address.
  5. Add your phone number and website.
  6. Verify. Google usually asks for a short video of your business, signage or tools, or a phone check.
