To make the page more trustable and genuine, add pictures, descriptions and reviews. The more reviews you get the more likely your business page will appear.

 

  • Pay Attention to Mobile: Voice search is especially used with mobile devices. Thus make your website design compatible with the mobile screening. Also, ensure improving mobile page speed and load times for your website.
