Google Place Pages updates, how to overcome them

Google Place Pages also Google Place listings underwent some major changes in the past couple of weeks, I already talked about these changes in one of my previous posts. What I didn’t tell you, was a way local internet marketers could salvage their clients’ businesses, so that changes made to Google Place pages doesn’t really affect them and their businesses. That’s what I have been doing for my clients since Google Place pages were “updated”. Basically what all local internet marketers need to do (including yours truly) is to make small changes to their clients’ website to avoid any loss in the number of customers.

Follow some Simple Steps to Restore Your Client’s Customers

Let’s first have a roundup of all things that have disappeared from your Google Place Pages:

• Your mentioned business timings
• Short owner description up to 200 characters
• Additional details

I know other things are missing too, such as third party reviews and citation sources, these are also very important. However, we first have to deal with the absence of the most basic information such as working hours and business descriptions, as no one would come near your client’s business if they don’t know what that they do exactly!

All you need to do is put the missing information from Google Place pages onto your client’s website.  As customers usually log onto the business’ website (even for the briefest) moment, before they switch their status from visitor to customer, hence these steps will work. So, here’s what local internet marketers should do for their clients:

Step# 1: Put your client’s business hours visibly on their homepage. This means put the timings in BOLD, HIGHLIGHTED or DIFFERENT COLORED FONT, so they really jump off from the page.

Step# 2: Incorporate your client’s short business description from their Google Place pages into the website in such a way that anyone who comes upon the page, knows instantly what your client does.

Step# 3: Paste all the additional details that your client had on their Google Place page onto their website. So that their customers still get to see those details. Although these steps might sound simple, however they have amazing potential. Test them out for your client to help them recover from the changes made to Google Place Listings.

Webpage Rentals – Making Money Faster for Longer

Maintaining control of your clients both in terms of owning the work you do for them plus preventing them looking around for other providers is HUGE!

This is one of the BIGGEST lessons I’ve learned in over 11 years doing the Offline to Online consulting system.

Webpage rentals or leasing is one way we could retain complete control of the service we provide clients because we own the property and only rent the leads or space to the clients.

Watch this short video where I go over some of the webpage rentals

There are a lot of misconceptions about online marketing for local business and most systems you see online are complicated and require a lot more knowledge and skill than they let on.

Webpage leasing or rentals is easy and you can set one up in 30 minutes if you know what to do.

Getting your page ranked is the next step after uploading your page and this can take a few days or more depending what you do and in what order. (I’ll show you exactly how I get most pages ranked top ten in Google after only a few days)

Once you have this valuable property, you will find a ton of local business chomping at the bit to rent you page:-)

It’s a Beautiful Thing!

Yours for Offline Profits
