Questions Townsville businesses ask about their Google listing
Most businesses already have a Google Business Profile - it’s usually the setup, visibility or consistency that’s stopping it from bringing in calls and enquiries.

If your business isn’t showing up properly on Google, it’s usually because your Google Business Profile hasn’t been fully optimised or aligned with your website.
Common issues include incorrect categories, weak service area setup, inconsistent activity, limited reviews or poor website support. In competitive Townsville searches, even small setup issues can affect visibility.

It depends on what needs fixing and how much support your business needs.
Some businesses only need a one-off optimisation and cleanup, while others need ongoing management, updates, posts, review support and local SEO improvements.
Simple setups can start from around $350, while more in-depth optimisation can vary depending on the current state of your profile.
I usually recommend starting with an online setup Review first so you can see exactly what’s affecting your visibility before spending money on the wrong things.
