“How customers find your listing” will be the first graph you see when entering the insights tab in Google My Business. This graph not only shows you how many customers have found your business but also how they found it based on their search. There are three different methods that a user could have used to find your business in local search: direct searches, discovery searches, and branded searches.
- Direct search occurs when a user directly searches Google for your business name or location. This type of search is most popular in cases where the customer is already familiar with your business.
- Discovery search is when your business appears on a search engine results page (SERP) based on the search of a category, product, or offered service similar to yours.
- Branded search happens when a customer searches for your brand or a brand related to your business.
It is important to note that if a user finds your business through more than one of these different methods, they would be counted multiple times, once for each method used.
