New Google Features that Will Help Boost Your Business

Out of the IT- and SEO-related newsletters I receive, most of it spam, one particular update caught my attention. With the increasing popularity of Google Maps for its usefulness and relevance to local and international business, Google recently launched another "business" feature called Google Boost. Google recently launched Google Boost. Google Boost is an AdWords feature that allows local websites be more visible in local searches. For new and local businesses, this would be advantageous and would definitely help them be "searchable". However, for business or personal websites and blogs that have positioned themselves, if not on top at least the first page of search engine search results, this would definitely affect their ranking.

Google reps also disclosed, "We've made results like this possible by developing technology to better understand places. With Google Place Search, we're dynamically connecting hundreds of millíons of websites with more than 50 million real-world locations. We automatically identify when sites are talking about physical places and cluster links even when they don't provide addresses and use different names."

In addition, Google has been making the internet a very huge and competitive marketplace for everyone. With the introduction of Google Place Search, which works alongside Google Maps, local and international business can be listed, like a big directory, and potential clients and customers can have a visible physical view of the business location. This helps people make more informed business or personal decisions.
