Often the first thing a local customer sees.
Your profile can display services, reviews, photographs, opening hours, phone number and website before a customer clicks a traditional result. Missing or inconsistent information creates doubt and makes the business harder to understand.
Pixel86 reviews the profile and connects it properly with the website and wider local SEO work.

No fake locations, fake reviews or keyword-stuffed names.
Profile management cannot guarantee a place in the local three-pack or overcome every distance factor. Pixel86 will not create false locations, manipulate the business name or generate fake reviews.
If a review genuinely breaches policy, we can help flag it and prepare a professional response. Google still controls removals, verification, suspension and appeals.
The business keeps ownership.
The business should retain primary ownership of its profile. Pixel86 is added with an appropriate management role rather than taking the listing away from the client.
Profile work can form part of a wider SEO package or be discussed as focused optimisation where that is the immediate priority.
Helpful before we begin
Everything you may want to ask first.
Clear answers about price, process, ownership, support and what happens next.
Is Google Business Profile the same as Google My Business?
Yes. Google Business Profile is the current name for the service previously called Google My Business or GMB.
Can you create a new profile?
Pixel86 can help with setup, but the owner must supply accurate information and may need to complete Google's verification.
Can you guarantee the Maps top three?
No. Local results depend on relevance, distance, prominence and competition.
Can you remove a negative review?
Reviews that breach policy can be flagged, but Google decides whether to remove them. Legitimate criticism cannot be deleted on request.
Should I add keywords to my business name?
Use the genuine real-world business name. Adding services and locations purely for rankings can breach Google's guidelines.
Who should own the profile?
The business should retain primary ownership and add Pixel86 through an appropriate role. That protects your control of the listing if suppliers or staff change later.
How often should the profile be updated?
Core information should be corrected as soon as it changes. Photos, services, posts and review activity can be updated at a sensible pace based on the business and wider local SEO priorities rather than posting for the sake of activity.
Can you help if the profile is suspended?
Pixel86 can review the visible issue, help organise accurate evidence and support the reinstatement process. Google makes the final decision, so no responsible provider can promise that an appeal will succeed or give a guaranteed timeframe.
Will I be able to see the profile performance?
Yes. Available profile data can be reviewed alongside website analytics and real enquiry information. Pixel86 explains what the figures can show and avoids presenting impressions alone as proof of new business.
