While Google provides the tools to do this manually, the process involves several technical steps. This guide will show you both methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The manual coding approach requires technical knowledge of APIs and web development.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Part 1: Getting Your Business on Google Maps<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Step 1: Claim Your Google Business Profile<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul
