How to Set Up Your Google My Business Listing Correctly

1. Create or sign in to your Google Account

This will be the primary managing Google account for this listing. I recommend that if you are using a Gmail or Workspace email for this business, you use that one.

2. log in to business.google.com

If you do not have a business account connected to your Gmail account you will end up on this page. If you do not see this screen yet, choose Manage Now.

3. Enter Your Business name

If you do not have a business account connected to your Gmail account you will end up on this page. If you do not see this screen yet, choose Manage Now.

4. Enter Your Business Category
