Your Google My Business (GMB) account is in Danger!

Do you have a Google My Business account for your business? Google My Business (GMB) is one of Google's many tools used by businesses and other organizations to manage their online presence in both Google Search as well as Google Maps.

Unsure if you do have a GMB listing, search for your business name on Google, if you find it, check if it has the correct details about your business such as:

• Location
• Business Hours
• Business phone number

Do not forget to claim and verify your business to be able to edit your business details and post news and updates about your business. Claiming your GMB account will also prevent scammers and hackers from modifying details about your business such as MealHi5.
