Google Place Pages Can Drive New Local Customers To Your Business

Google has already created a “Place Page” for your business on THEIR server. It if free – all you have to do is claim it. Please note it is NOT on your server. Click on the video below to see what a Place Page looks like. Even if you do not have a website you automatically have a page. This page is specifically designed to help people searching for local services from their smart phones or desktop computers. 80% of your business comes from people who live or work within five miles of your office.  If you are in Chicago and search on pizza, Google knows your exact location from your phone's GPS or your computer's IP address. It attempts to serve up the nearest locations to where you are.
The Google Place Page aggregates reviews about your business – good or bad (you can’t remove them), and allows you to update the page with photos, videos, menus of your services, mobile coupons, office hours, location, etc. If you are a service business you can define your service radius for searches.  Google Place Pages are the new yellow pages.
If you provide me your business info either in an email to placepages@etrafficresults.com or fill in the form on the right hand side of this page, I will send you screen shots of your current Place Page, screen shots of your competitor’s Place Pages and instructions on how you can claim your page for free. Yahoo! and Bing also offer similar types of pages but Google Place Pages control the bulk of the traffic.
