Advertising on Google for FREE

October 15th, 2007

You know that you can advertise on Google for FREE using Google Local or Google Maps?
This can help you show up in searches and get more traffic, leads and customers.
Here’s what you have to do to get listed on Google Maps for free:

Things you will need before you start:
- A description of your business
- Your phone number, address and any other contact info you want to advertise
- A logo or image that represents your business (some people use a picture of their office, store or restaurant)
- A coupon or special offer you want to advertise (Google also lets you add a coupon for FREE if you want)

Step 1) Go to www.google.com/local and search for your business to verify it is not yet listed.

Step 2) Go back to www.google.com/local and click on Add/Edit Your Business at the bottom left part of the page. Add your business to Google marketing.

Step 3) Follow the steps provided by Google. They are pretty simple and straightforward. As part of the process you will need to verify your business either by phone or mail.

Step 4) Check back in a few weeks and verify your listing. If you want to update it, you can use the same process outlined here to update your listing.
