Before you Google yourself, let's look at how you might come up in the search results BECAUSE you are a real estate agent.
Go to Google and search "REALTORS near me" (around me, local, whatever... you get the idea).
Based on your computer's IP address, Google will showcase results near you. The search results include a map – with markers of agents and offices around town.
Are you on that map?
What about the "More Places" results (at the bottom of the list)? Is your office on the list? (They should be!)
Wouldn't it be great to show up competitively here?
Claim and verify your business here: Google.com/business. Fill it out COMPLETELY and EXHAUSTIVELY.
Once verified:
Another quick tip! Place your business directly onto Google Maps. Zoom into your physical location and right-click on the area where you want to be located. There is an option to "Add a Missing Place."
If your business profile is verified (see above), and the address matches the location you are pinning, you can just fill out the quick form and bam! your business appears on Google Maps.
That will be enough to get you on the Google results maps, unless all your competition just read this post, too.
