Having a business profile on Hellopeter will improve your business’s chance of being found in Google. This is because your Hellopeter business profile allows you to get to the top of an otherwise difficult and time-consuming Google result page in your industry. 

Our Hellopeter business profiles create listings on Hellopeter that are well optimised, out-of-the-box, and allow you to own visits for searches related to your brand and industry.

Hellopeter is optimised using review markup. This means that your business’s overall rating is seen on Google’s organic search results, and in the ‘Google My Business’ sidebar on results pages.

If you’d like to prevent these from showing, Hellopeter is able to block Google from storing a review. If Google has found and indexed an offending review, Hellopeter is able to request from Google the removal of that listing. These removals can take two to ten working days.

Hellopeter’s business pages are already optimised for star ratings. All you need to do is make sure the public makes use of Hellopeter, and submits their ratings and reviews. These star ratings can take a while to appear on Google, but they usually surface within two weeks of the first review being completed.

The more reviews you receive in Hellopeter, the more keywords and content will be generated for your business. Google uses Hellopeter’s website authority, and the keywords generated to rank your business in Google search results.
