Google Business Profile Optimisation for Trade Businesses
Turn Your Google Profile Into a Daily Phone Call Generator.
Your Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is the single most valuable free digital asset your trade business owns. Over 70% of phone calls from local searches happen directly from the Google Business Profile card on mobile. We fully optimise your profile, correct category settings, upload verified trade photos, manage weekly updates, and protect your listing from unfair competitor flags.
Why This Is Crucial for Australian Trade Businesses
A poorly configured Google Business Profile misses out on dozens of local emergency and scheduled calls every month. An optimised profile with strong review velocity consistently outranks competitors with bigger marketing budgets.

Frequently Asked Questions: Google Business Profile for Tradies
Can you help if my Google Business Profile gets suspended?
Yes. We assist trade businesses with reinstatement requests by assembling trade licences, utility bills, business registration documents, and aligning profile data with Google’s strict guidelines.
Should I display my home address on my Google profile?
If you operate as a mobile contractor without a public walk-in showroom, Google requires you to hide your physical address and define a Service Area. We configure this correctly so your profile stays compliant while ranking strongly across your service territory.
