Step 1: Granting Access to Google Business Profile
To successfully set up your Get Found campaign, the first step involves granting access to your Google Business Profile. This is crucial for ensuring that the Get Found team can manage and optimize your business listing effectively.
Begin by navigating to the "Business Profile Settings" within your Google Business Profile. From there, select "People and access," click the "Add" button, and input the email address “5870428207”. Choose the user labeled “Get Found Management” and assign them the role of “Manager” before sending the invite. This access will allow the team to make necessary updates and enhancements to improve your local SEO visibility.
Step 2: Adding DNS Records for Your Landing Page
The second step in your Get Found setup is adding DNS records that point to your landing page. This process is essential for ensuring that your website is correctly linked and accessible to users and search engines alike.
To add a DNS “A Record,” you will need to direct local.yourdomain.com to the IP address 108.163.158.12. If you encounter difficulties accessing your domain, the Get Found team can assist by setting up these records on a "ghost domain," such as companyname.local-biz.ca. Detailed instructions for this process can be found in Google’s support documentation, which provides further guidance on DNS configuration.
Step 3: Providing Access to Website Analytics
Providing access to your website analytics is the third and final step in setting up your Get Found campaign. This access allows the Get Found team to analyze your website traffic and performance metrics, which are vital for optimizing your local SEO strategies.
To grant access, navigate to your Google Analytics account and select the option to add users. Enter the email address “5870428207” and assign the appropriate permissions. This will enable the Get Found team to monitor analytics data and make informed decisions to enhance your online presence based on user behavior and traffic patterns.
