Are you taking advantage of google’s free advertising? As google is giving more value to local search results, you will benefit by adding your business to google places. If you already have a listing then you might want to add special offers, videos and photos.

To get started make sure you have the following ready:

  • Your logo for uploading
  • Coupons or special offers (optional)
  • About 10 images of your business (optional)
  • Description of your business
  • Videos on You Tube (optional)

Create a google account if you do not have one. (https://accounts.google.com/SignUp)Go to http://www.google.com/business/placesforbusiness/

Finally, the first time you create a Google Places listing, you will need to validate your location. This helps Google avoid spam listings and advertisements. Google will send you a postcard with verification information and next steps on it. You might have to wait 2-3 weeks before your listing can get verified and become live.
