What Is Google Listing

• Google refers to its Local Business Listing
  Platform as Google My Business. The resulting
  Google My Business listings include a Business
  Name, Address, Phone Number and Website. This
  business listing information is available through
  a variety of Google properties including Google
  Maps.
• In fact, Google My Business offers everything you
  need for a potential customer to find and use
  your services, buy your products or visit your
  business. Once youve registered or claimed your
  local business listing via the Google My Business
  dashboard, you can respond to customer reviews
  and add images to help your business stand out.
