We Rank Your Google My Business (GMB)
What do you do these days when you require the services of a particular business? Unless you are a digital hermit, you will do a Google search, something like "wildlife and pest control businesses near me". This search will give you a map of the closest wildlife and pest control businesses.
As a service-providing business, you will want to come close to, or at the top of, this search list. If you are not on Google maps, it is in your interest to ensure you are.

What is Google My Business?
This is a FREE business listing on Google's platform, it is also known as a "GMB", and helps drive more customers to your business. This listing is visible on Google Search and Google Maps. We spend about 4 hours per GMB to set it up and optimize it for highest ranking potential, then regularly maintain it to make sure that it keeps at top of search results. Our goal is to put your GMBs in the top 3 search results for your target keywords. Here is one of many GMBs that we have ranked for clients in the #1 position...
The Benefits
Here are the main reasons you'll want to market your business on Google Maps:
- Even when shopping locally, people search online first. Users overwhelmingly perform a search before they go out and buy at their local store, or call their local pest control or wildlife service.
- A vast majority of searches on Google are about finding business or services required by consumers.
- According to some research, Google Maps has a 96% market reach, so if you want new business, you need to be on there.
- The majority of people use Google Maps to navigate around on a daily basis.
- Even when not advertising, people can find you. Your presence on Google Maps ensures people see it and remember who you are.
- Brand recognition and trust for your pest control business. Being on Google Maps gives the perception of reliability, confidence, and a brand of note. People trust what they can find online.
How to Market on Google Maps
Google Maps marketing is more than just being listed; it is about maximizing your presence. In much the same way as search engine optimization (SEO) is about getting the most from your search engine presence, Google Maps marketing will bump your wildlife and pest control business up the Maps ranking lists.
The best way to optimize your business for Google Maps marketing is to use two primary tools: Google My Business and a professional online marketer, like AAAnimal Advertising.
