Google has been driving on local companies for a long time to make sure their website, address and hours serve up in search results that are local. The portal site offers company owners resources to assist them correct and finish their existence online or get online.

A page on the websites of Google enables consumers to make their very own personalized postcards listing the very best three favourite companies within their town.

Users going to the site see a local variant on the basis of the IP address of cellular device or the computer. As an example, I find local companies in Huntington Beach.

For companies that are offline, Google provides a free domain name and hosted Web site through Startlogic for one year. Google requests their business to be searched for by those with an internet presence. A diagnostic tool shows companies how they appear on Maps and Search, a step by step guide for getting online with Google My Company. In the event the queries are not complete, the technology requests companies to update their info.

Google also is forming partnerships with local organizations like small business development centres and chambers, equipping them with custom city stuff and free trainings to run workshops.
