Understand local rankings
Google Maps rankings change across locations.
Google identifies relevance, distance and prominence as the main local ranking factors. A single search from one address does not show your visibility across an entire service area.
1
RelevanceHow well your profile and other business information match a search.
2
DistanceHow far your business is from the searcher or the location in the query.
3
ProminenceHow well-known your business is, based partly on reviews, links and other references.
