Three things move it, in order. Distance from the searcher, which you cannot change. The completeness and accuracy of your Google Business Profile, categories and services especially, which you can change today. And review volume and recency, which is the one most businesses neglect and the one that compounds.

Choosing the primary and secondary categories correctly, which is the single highest-leverage change and the one most often wrong. Listing every service as its own entry. Real photographs, added regularly rather than once. Posts. Replying to every review, including the bad ones. Keeping opening hours honest, bank holidays included.

Getting your business to show up when people near you search for what you do, on Google search, Google Maps and increasingly in AI answers. It's different from general SEO because it's about a place, not a topic.

Maps improvements can show in weeks. Search rankings for competitive terms usually take two to four months. You'll see the movement in your monthly report either way.
