Google Business Profile setup
Google Business Profile setup, done right the first time
We create, claim or fix your Google Business Profile so customers see the right categories, hours, photos, services and links. You stay the owner. From US$99, one-off.
No Google password required. We work as Manager only, with your written consent.
Who it's for
New to Google Maps
You are not on Maps yet and want a complete, accurate profile before customers start searching.
Wrong or half-done listing
You already have a profile with wrong hours, categories, photos or a duplicate that needs sorting.
Moved or rebranded
Your name, address, phone or services changed and the Maps listing has not caught up.
Google Business Profile is for businesses that meet customers in person (a storefront or a service that travels to customers). Online-only businesses usually are not eligible. See Google's eligibility guidelines. If you are not eligible, we will tell you rather than create a listing that could be removed.

We complete setup
Within 5 working days of access we finish the agreed work. Verification is completed by you. We guide the steps; Google chooses the method and the timeline.

See all setup and monthly plans, including founding-client offers, on the homepage. Monthly upkeep starts at US$25/month (Lite).
FAQ
Do I need to give you my password?
No. Never. You invite us as a Manager from your own Google account, and you can remove our access at any time.
Who verifies the profile?
You do. We guide the process. Google chooses which verification method is offered (for example video, phone, email or postcard) and how long it takes.
How long until it shows on Maps?
Google decides. Verification can take days and is not guaranteed on any particular timeline. We do not promise indexing speed or ranking.
What if I already have a duplicate listing?
We help you identify duplicates and follow Google's process to claim or request access to the right one. Outcomes depend on Google.
Is Herelume part of Google?
No. Herelume is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google. Google, Google Maps and Google Business Profile are trademarks of Google LLC.
