Add Service Area Tab - GMB?

[Javed Jat]

Hello Fellow Members,

I am managing a few brick and mortar stores for a business, I am relatively new to GMB management. Kindly ignore to my stupid question if it is.

Can Add Service Area be used by physical store businesses?

Thanks
Javed

Hi Javed. Yes, you can add service areas to any location. There are many businesses that have a store front, but also service an area. Such as a pest control, or electrician business that has a shop, but generally does service work outside of that shop.

Please note that there is no ranking value in setting these service areas though. The only purpose is so that it shows your service area on the map when your business appears in search results.

Hey Darren. Thanks for additional insights!

That pretty much clears air for me.

Appreciate!
