Step by Step
Open your GBP dashboard and confirm the listing shows your exact business name, address, and phone number. Even small differences — "LLC" vs no "LLC", abbreviated street vs full — create NAP inconsistencies that suppress local rankings.
Open GBP DashboardIn the listing editor, set your website to https://setxlawns.com — exactly as shown, with https. This links your GBP directly to your site and is a core local ranking signal.
Under "Service area," add: Warren, Woodville, Chester, Spurger, Hillister, Fred, Colmesneil, Village Mills, Kountze, Silsbee, Lumberton, Jasper, Kirbyville, Buna, Livingston. Also add Tyler County, Hardin County, Jasper County, and Polk County.
Note: Keep your address visible — do not hide it. Showing 155 FM 2827 Rd. Suite B, Warren, TX 77664 increases local pack eligibility for Warren-area searches.
Go to Photos in your GBP dashboard and upload real before/after shots of your work. Listings with photos get 42% more direction requests and 35% more website clicks than those without.
Note: Use photos from your actual jobs — not stock images. Google can detect and penalize stock photos. You already have 7 real job photos on your site.
Paste the ready-to-use description from the section below into the "Business description" field in your GBP editor. It's already keyword-optimized and under the 750-character limit.
Add your business hours (Mon–Fri 7:00 AM – 6:00 PM, Sat 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM) and fill out the Services section with your specific offerings: lawn mowing, edging, weed control, yard cleanup. A complete profile ranks higher than a sparse one.
Text or email your most recent satisfied customers and ask them to leave a Google review. Even 3–5 reviews significantly boost local pack rankings. You can share your listing link directly: share.google/FuzHncdfdADIYbiQU
Note: Respond to every review — positive or negative. Google factors owner responsiveness into local pack ranking. A simple "Thanks for the kind words!" is enough.
In your GBP editor, check applicable attributes: Licensed, Insured, Free estimates, Veteran-owned (if applicable). Also seed the Q&A section with 2–3 common questions and answers — Google surfaces these in search results.
