Draw Summer Visitors with a Google Maps Glow-Up

June 5, 2024 by Basil Puglisi Leave a Comment

Summer Travel Google Visitors

Out-of-towners search for hidden gems. Stale listings don’t entice. Add seasonal energy to pull them your way.

What it is: Summer-themed photos and posts on your profile.

How it works: Upload two summer shots and a special post. Rio SEO’s tips show fresh images boost seasonal queries.

What to do this week: Add two summer photos and highlight one special in a post.

Why it matters: Captures travelers, expanding your reach. Turns visitors into loyal customers for ongoing business. A tour spot doubled summer traffic with this.

Hit 20 more direction requests this month from stats.
