Previously known as Google Places, Google My Business helps potential customers find you anytime, anywhere.
It is the main way of adding your business to Google as an official directory listing. It will give you results in Google search against your company name and also make you appear on Google Maps as a proper ‘pin’ (see ‘Why bother’ below).
