Do you have the right opening hours on Google?
Most people search on Google when they want to find opening hours. So it's important that the answer people get about your business is actually correct.
Many people assume that the information in the search result is correct and don't take the time to double-check elsewhere.
Here we show you how to manage your opening hours on Google.
Controlled from Google My Business
The opening hours shown in the search result and in the map on Google Maps are controlled from your business profile in Google My Business.
In simple terms, this is Google's platform for managing the information that comes up about your business in search results, such as name, opening hours and geographical location. It's within this tool that you need to enter your opening hours.
