6. Focus on a user friendly experience

Facebook Removes Over 1,000 Ad Targeting Options Due to Low Usage

This week, Facebook has announced that it will remove over 1,000 ad targeting options because they're either not used very often, or they replicate other audience targeting categories.

They are also now pushing for brands to start using hashtags to expand awareness, so let's give it a shot.

Your Google Maps listing is a crucial marketing tool for your business. It can help you get discovered by new customers, stand out above competitors, and generate more business—all for free. But these benefits are really only attainable if your listing has strong visibility, and just because your business is listed in an area does not mean Google will automatically rank it for searches in that area.

Ranking higher on Google Maps typically means ranking higher on Google Search as well.

Follow these 10 steps to help your business rank higher...

🗺 Add your business to Google Maps
🗺 Claim your Google Maps business listing
🗺 Add information to your Google Maps business listing
🗺 Add photos to your Google Maps business listing
🗺 Get Google reviews
🗺 Consolidate your Google Maps listings
🗺 Post regularly to your Google Maps business listing
🗺 Make sure your website is responsive
🗺 Add local keywords to your website
🗺 Embed a Google map on your website
