| Google Map Ranking | Haan (Google My Business ke through) | Nahin |
| Competition Level | Kam (location specific) | Zyada (all over web) |
| Results Visibility | Local Pack (map + top 3 results) | SERP (Search Engine Result Page) |
Local SEO Google ke algorithm ke kuch special signals par based hota hai:
Proximity (Nazdeek ka distance) – User ke location se business kitna close hai?
Relevance (Upyuktata) – Business ka nature user ki query se kitna match karta hai?
Prominence (Fame ya visibility) – Business kitna popular hai online?
Google in tino factors ko consider karke search results decide karta hai.
GMB aapka digital business card hai.
Is par business name, address, phone number (NAP), photos, timing aur reviews hone chahiye.
Ye listing Google Map par bhi dikhegi.

“Lucknow ke Top 10 Cafes”
“Gomti Nagar mein Sasta Gym kaise chune”
Isse local audience engage hoti hai aur Google ko signal milta hai ki aapka business us area mein active hai.
Local searches ka 60% se zyada mobile par hota hai.
