Welcome to Grow Local
Your website is live - but there are a few things you can do right now to make it look even more professional and start getting leads faster.
Step 1: Upload Your Logo
Go to your Business tab and upload your logo. This appears in the header, footer, and favicon of your website. Accepted formats: PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP.
Step 2: Verify Your Business Info
Check that your business name, phone number, and email are correct. These appear throughout your website and on the contact form. Your phone number is click-to-call on mobile devices.
Step 3: Add Your Business Address
Adding your full address helps with local SEO. Google uses this to understand where your business is located and show you in local search results.
Step 4: Set Your Business Hours
Let customers know when you're available. This also gets added to your website's schema markup, which Google reads to display your hours directly in search results.
Step 5: Review Your Services
Grow Local created service pages based on your industry. Go to the Services tab to review them. You can edit descriptions, add new services, or remove ones that don't apply to your business.
