Introduction:

Google Business Profile is the profile that is associated with your account when you list a business on Google. Whenever you search for a local restaurant or a store on Google, and if it shows up in the search results with its location—that is the GBP of that Business. According to a study by Birdeye, on average, a verified Google Business Profile receives about 200 clicks/interactions per month. And out of these interactions up to 50% of them are website clicks. Clearly, a GBP is important to each and every business owner as it provides more visibility and gives a chance for a business to feature important information related to their business like what they do, operating hours, amenities available, and even customer reviews.

However, Google Business Profile is limited in the fact that it can only allow you to collect reviews on google. What do you do when you want to show off the reviews you've received across other platforms? You can use Feedspace. A testimonial platform that allows you to both import existing reviews of yours from across the internet and collect fresh ones. With the additional feature to create a Wall of Love to show off these reviews.

The Wall of Love has its own unique link which a business can then add to their Google My Business Profile as a website or feature it in their replies and comments with customers.

Why Add Feedspace Wall of Love to Google Business Profile?

  • Copy and paste the link to your Wall of Love as the website in your Google Business Profile.
  • Ensure you also include the link in any posts you make on your GBP or when you answer questions and reply to reviews.

Think of your Google Business Profile as your virtual storefront. Most of the time it will receive more views and interactions than your official website. This is not surprising however since we all have the tendency to “Google” things when we want to learn about them. In fact, 72% of customers say they use Google reviews to find businesses!

Step 4: Promote Your Wall of Love

  • Don't forget to also promote your Wall of Love all across your social media channels.
