Which Business Profile links to add, and where they should go

Your Business Profile links are the buttons people tap to visit your site, book or ask for a quote. Most businesses point every one of them at the home page, which wastes them.

By Ben Raymond · · 4 min read

Which ones you see depends on your category, but the common ones are:

  • Website. The main link on your profile.
  • Appointment or booking. A link to book a time.
  • Quote or order. For businesses that quote or take orders.
  • Menu or services, for some categories.

Point each one at the right page

LinkSend it to
WebsiteYour best page for the main service, or the home page if it's strong
BookingThe page where someone can actually pick a time, not a contact form
QuoteA short quote form on your own site

How to add or change them

  1. Open your profile on Google while signed in.
  2. Choose Edit profile, then Contact.
  3. Add or edit your website and other links.
  4. Save, then tap each one on your phone to check it works.

Tracking where they come from

Add a tracking tag to the end of your website link so your analytics can show which visits came from your profile. It tells you how much the profile is really doing for you.

Some booking platforms add their own link to your profile automatically. Check which one shows, and make sure it's the one you actually use. An old booking app link sending customers to a dead page is a common mess.

Rather not do this yourself? Our Google Business Profile management handles the profile, the posts and the reviews every week, for one monthly fee.

Questions

Straight answers.

Can I add a booking link to my Google Business Profile?

Yes, for most categories. Add it under the contact section when you edit your profile.

Should my Google profile link to my home page?

Not always. Linking to your strongest service page or a short quote page often gets more enquiries.

Why is there a booking link on my profile I didn't add?

Some booking platforms add one automatically. Check it's the system you actually use.
