Your Google listing shows your reviews, your hours and the way to reach you. Many customers want to see these before they come. If your website has no link to it, they must search again to find it. Add one clear link.
Suresh runs a car service centre. He has good reviews on Google and a neat website.
A new customer read his website and liked it. Then she wanted directions and some reviews. There was no map and no Google link. She searched again, and the first result was another garage.
This is an example, with a made up name and business.
Fix it yourself
- Find your listing link. Open Google Maps on your phone. Search for your business and open it. Tap Share, then copy the link.
- Check the link. Paste it in a new browser tab. It should open your own listing, with your name and address.
- Add it to your website. In your website builder, add a button or a text link. Call it something clear, like "See us on Google Maps" or "Directions and reviews".
- Put it near your address. Customers look there for the way to reach you. You can add it at the bottom of each page too.
- Think about a map. Many website builders let you add a small Google map. Search your business name in the map box, so it shows your pin.
- Test it on your phone. Tap the link. It should open Google Maps at your business.
- Check your pin. If the map shows the wrong place, see how to fix a wrong map pin on Google Maps.
Your listing is what many people see first. See what people see when they search for you.

My listing link is very long. Is that fine?
Yes. The link from the Share button works. You do not need to shorten it.
Will this bring me more customers?
Nobody can promise that. It helps customers who are reading your site find you and your reviews.
