Google launched yesterday, I believe, on Thanksgiving, a new feature in Google My Business for job types for services. This is where services businesses in the US can choose from suggested types of services. This includes things like "repair toilets" and/or "install faucets" for plumbers.
Google wrote "Services businesses in the US can choose from suggested types of services (for example, plumbers may see "Install faucet" or "Repair toilet" as services to add). If the type of service isn't listed, they can add their own custom services. These standardized job types make it easier for customers to find the services they need, and help merchants generate more relevant leads for the services they offer."
In Google My Business, you may see an option to add the services you offer, along with their descriptions and prices. To keep your services list organized, group services into sections. When customers find your business listing on Google, they'll see your services listed under "Services."
Here is how to add or edit your services:
- Sign in to Google My Business.
- If you have multiple locations, open the location you'd like to manage.
- From the menu, click Info.
- In the "Services" section, click Edit.
- Add your sections and items.
