ProfileForBusiness Glossary
What is listing verification?
Listing verification is Google's confirmation that a business really operates at the given address, done by video, phone, email or a postcard code.
Why it matters
Without verification the profile is not fully visible to customers and cannot be managed. It is the first condition for the listing to work at all.
How to use it
- Prepare documents and signage before verifying.
- Choose the method Google offers for your industry.
- For video checks show the sign, venue and work tools.
- Complete the profile content right after verification.
ProfileForBusiness prepares the full content set for the moment right after verification, so a freshly confirmed profile never stands empty.
