When someone searches for 'dentist in Lagos' or 'web designer Ikeja' on Google, the businesses that appear in the top 3 of the Google Maps results (the 'Local Pack') get the most customers. Hordanso's GMB Ranker service is designed to get your business into that top 3.
What is Google Business Profile (GBP)?
Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business / GMB) is a free listing on Google that shows your business in:
- Google Maps search results
- The 'Local Pack' (the map and 3 businesses shown in Google Search)
- The knowledge panel on the right side of search results
If your business is not listed or not ranking well, you are invisible to customers who are actively searching for what you offer.
How Hordanso's GMB Ranker Works
- Profile optimisation — we audit and improve your GBP listing: description, categories, photos, service areas, hours, and posts
- Citation building — we create consistent mentions of your business (Name, Address, Phone) across Nigerian and global directories to build local authority
- Review management — we set up automated prompts to encourage satisfied customers to leave 5-star reviews
- Geo-targeted activity — we use our GMB ranking tools to simulate local search engagement signals that tell Google your listing is relevant and popular
- Monthly reporting — you receive a ranking report showing your position for target keywords across your service area
Who Is GMB Ranker For?
- Restaurants, salons, clinics, and retail shops that want more walk-in customers
- Service businesses (lawyers, accountants, contractors) that serve a specific city or area
- Any business that has a physical location or serves a defined local area
What Results Can You Expect?
Results vary based on competition in your area and the current state of your GBP listing. In low-to-medium competition areas (many Nigerian cities), significant ranking improvements typically appear within 30–90 days.
Note: GMB ranking services are subject to Google's terms of service. Hordanso uses white-hat methods alongside our proprietary tools to improve rankings. We do not offer guaranteed #1 rankings as Google's algorithm is continuously updated.
