Why it matters
Why Google Maps rankings matter more than ever
Google Maps is no longer a directory — it's the single most important discovery surface for any business that serves local customers.
46% of searches have local intent
Nearly half of every Google query is local — buyers actively looking for a business, service or location near them right now.
Mobile search growth
Over 78% of mobile local searches end in an offline purchase within 24 hours. Maps is where mobile buyers convert.
Map Pack click-through rates
The Google Maps 3-pack captures 44% of all local search clicks — more than every organic result on page one combined.
Customer buying behavior
88% of consumers who do a local search on their phone visit or call a business within 24 hours. Maps shortens the path to revenue.
Local search trends
'Near me' searches have grown 900% in five years. Voice search, mobile and Google Maps are now the dominant discovery surface.
