What gets fixed

Categories, service area, hours, the services list with descriptions, and photographs that are yours rather than stock. The primary category is the heaviest lever on the whole listing, and most owners set it once at registration and never look again.

Reviews in Scarborough

1,228 businesses here hold a 4.9 rating or better, so the rating alone separates nobody — volume does. The median is 53 reviews and the upper quarter is past 168. We set the ask up so it happens when the work is finished, and reply to everything that arrives.

Service area, not a fake address

If you travel to customers, the address should be hidden and the coverage area set instead. Publishing an address you do not receive customers at is a verification risk, and a virtual office is a suspension risk.

Trade by trade

Dentists lead
the list in Scarborough.

Broken out by trade, because the Scarborough average hides a lot. The gap between dentists at 8 and furniture stores at 1 is most of the story.

Questions

Before you ask.

How many Scarborough businesses have an incomplete Google listing?

Of 2,685 listings we checked in Scarborough, 46 publish no hours and 170 have no reviews. Those two fields alone decide a large share of whether someone calls.

Can you get fake reviews removed?

We can report them with evidence and Google removes some. Nobody can promise removal, and burying them by buying good ones puts the listing at risk.

Where does your
own site land?

Everything above came from opening real websites. Yours takes ten seconds: we load it the way a customer would and say what we find, including when the honest answer is that nothing needs doing.
