When it comes to Local SEO, consistency is king โ but many people get stuck wondering how often they should post updates to their Google Business Profile (formerly GMB).
Hereโs the deal:
- ๐๏ธ Weekly is the sweet spot โ Posting once a week keeps your profile fresh and signals to Google that your business is active.
- ๐ Twice a week is even better โ Especially if you have seasonal offers, events, or new products. More activity = more chances to show up in Maps and local searches.
- โฐ Avoid ghosting your profile โ Posts expire after 7 days (except Events), so if you donโt update regularly, your profile looks stale.
- ๐ก Quality over quantity โ Donโt just post filler. Share updates that give customers a reason to click: promos, tips, FAQs, or what makes your business unique.
๐ Bottom line: Think of GMB/GMP like social media for Google โ consistent, relevant posting helps you rank higher in local results and earn more clicks from Maps.
