To help customers accurately locate your business on Google Maps and Search, enter your business address in your Business Profile. You can also set the pin position for your business location.
The business address you use shows publicly on your profile. If you don't serve customers at your business address, leave the address field blank and list your service area instead.
Address guidelines
To verify your business, you must enter a business address that Google can locate. Make sure your address follows the address guidelines so we can accurately display it. Keep in mind:
- Make sure you enter the complete and exact street address for your location. For example: 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA, 94043.
- Include suite numbers, floors, building numbers, and other types of unit information.
- Only include information that’s part of your official address. Include information like cross-streets and nearby landmarks only in regions where the official street address doesn’t accurately pinpoint your location. For example, avoid "Corner of Main St. and Washington Ave." or "Across from Central Park."
For addresses without a street number, or if the system can't find an address entered correctly: You can pin your business location directly on the map.
