Google Business Profile for Solar energy
The map listing is the cheapest search there is — and the worst filled in.
In practice, what changes for solar energy integrators: You start showing on the map to people already searching for what you sell.
People looking for a nearby service decide on the map, not on the website. Right category, service area, hours, listed services, real photos and answered reviews: every badly filled field is a position handed to the competitor who filled it.
We structure the profile, connect it to the site, set up call and click tracking, and leave a posting and review-reply routine your team can keep.
The typical bottleneck in this sector
Leads are cheap and expensive at once: high volume, but most have no suitable roof, consumption or credit. Sales reps spend the day on simulations that never close.
What changes in the pipeline
- Electricity bill amount and property type as qualification before the visit
- Booked technical visit as the conversion, not the simulation request
- Intended payment method recorded: cash and financed have different cycles
What is included
- Profile creation or claim, with verification completed
- Primary and secondary categories chosen by real search volume
- Services, service area, hours and attributes fully filled in
- Photos organised, call and website click tracking enabled
- Posting routine and review-reply script for the team

How we measure results here
Cost per completed technical visit and visit-to-signed-proposal rate.
A one-off structuring engagement. Monthly posting and review management is part of the SEO retainer or contracted separately.
Straight answers
Leads are too expensive in this market.
They are expensive because they are measured as leads. The number that matters is cost per technical visit.
Do I need a physical address?
Not necessarily. Businesses that serve at the customer address can set a service area and hide the address. What you cannot do is invent an address — Google suspends the profile.
How long until it shows on the map?
Verification takes days to a few weeks. Map position depends on category, proximity, reviews and data consistency; the first two months are adjustment.
Does a bad review sink my position?
A bad review answered politely weighs less than having no reviews at all. What sinks a profile is abandonment.
