Do I need to connect my Google Business Profile account?

Are you a startup? Operating nationally or internationally? Then you don't have to fill in this section

Updated over 2 weeks ago

The short answer is no; you don't have to connect your Google Business Profile account within this section of the onboarding setup.

When onboarding, you will be able to set up your Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and Google Business Profile Account.

If you don't want to connect them during onboarding, then you just need to click the button 'Next step'.

However, it is recommended to connect them if you have them. Why?

Google Business Profile:

Kit will optimize the Google Buisness Profile every month. By not connecting it, you will miss out on Kit:

  • Optimizing the profile itself (e.g. the business description)

  • Building citations to get your NAP information on local directories

  • Creating weekly Google Business Profile posts

  • Creating FAQ's

  • Alerting you of any new negative reviews

  • Creating proposed responses for positive reviews.

Google Analytics & Google Search Console

Kit will use this information as part of the monthly performance report. Without this, Kit won't be able to report on this data.
