For plumbers

What plumbers should look for on the map

Your customers are spread over your whole areaThe check covers a square of 3.6 miles around your address. If you drive further than that, the map shows the part closest to you. Distance counts for Google, so that is where your ranking is strongest.
Night and weekend callsGoogle ranks a business lower while it is closed. If you take emergency calls at night, your profile should show those hours, and a check in the evening shows how you rank then.
Your profile has to show an addressBusinesses that go to the customer often hide their address on Google. The check measures from the point where Google places you, so it needs a profile that shows its address.

How the check works, how to read every color and number on the map, and what Google itself says decides a local ranking: all of it is on the page of the Google Maps rank checker.

My plumbing business has no shop. Can I still run the check?

Which search should a plumber check first?

“Plumber near me” for the wide view, then the job you want most, such as “water heater repair” or “drain cleaning”. Each has its own map.

A square of 3.6 miles (about 6 km) with your business in the middle, checked at 9 by 9 spots.

Is it really free?

Yes. No credit card and no account. You get one email with your map.

How many checks can I run?
