Appearing in the Google Maps 3-pack is where most local calls actually come from. I set up and optimise your Google Business Profile as part of every website build, so you're visible on Maps from day one.
Why MunroStudio
When someone searches 'plumber near me' or 'cafe Glasgow Southside', the Google Maps 3-pack appears at the top of results. A properly optimised Google Business Profile gets you in it.
Category, services, opening hours, photos, description, Q&A: every section filled in correctly. An incomplete profile ranks lower and converts worse.
Your Google Business Profile and your website reinforce each other. A verified business with a live website ranks higher on Maps than one without.
More reviews = higher Maps ranking. I set your profile up to make it as easy as possible for happy customers to leave a review, and show you how to ask for them.

FAQs
Yes, setting up a Google Business Profile is completely free. The value is in getting it properly optimised and linked to a strong website, which is where most Glasgow businesses fall short.
After setup and verification (which takes 1–2 weeks via postcard from Google), your profile is live. Appearing in the top 3 for competitive local searches takes longer, typically 4–12 weeks of consistent reviews and activity.
Initial setup and optimisation is included in every site build. Ongoing management (responding to reviews, posting updates, adding photos) is something I can help with as part of your monthly plan.
