The Cape Town Google Business Profile Checklist.
46 points Cape Town businesses use to rank in local search and win more phone calls.
7 sections · ~15 min to read

What's inside.

Seven sections. Every checkpoint is what we actually check when we audit a real Cape Town business, not a generic list scraped off a US SEO blog.

01

Claim & verify

Postcard, phone, or video. Add a second owner so the profile survives an account lock.

02

Complete every field

Business name, address, phone, hours, categories, description. Missing fields cost rankings.

03

Photos & video

10+ real interior/exterior shots, 3 team faces, a 30-second intro video.

04

Reviews

The single biggest ranking factor. Volume plus freshness plus reply quality.

05

Weekly maintenance

One Google Post per week, monthly photo drops, hours updates before every public holiday.

06

Local content

Suburb-specific pages, quarterly market reports, review responses that name the suburb.

07

Insights loop

Monthly review of the queries you appeared for — feed the top ones back into your website copy.

Read how to set up your Google Business Profile properly for the full write-up on why each of these matters. The PDF is the printable, hand-to-your-team version.
