Why Views Don't Always Turn Into Calls
Many businesses have 5,000 monthly views on Google Maps but barely receive 2 calls a week. To fix this gap:
- **Complete Primary & Secondary Categories:** Select the most specific primary category (e.g., "Web Hosting Company" or "Software Company" rather than generic "Corporate Office").
- **Add Product/Service Cards with Pricing:** Give prospective clients an immediate reason to click.
- **Weekly Photo & Update Cadence:** Google favors active profiles that publish updates, photos of recent work, and answered Q&As.
- **Review Velocity & Keyword-Rich Responses:** Actively solicit reviews from delighted clients and reply mentioning the specific service delivered.
