What would showing up more on Google Maps be worth?
Type in six of your own numbers. The map fills in as you go and shows how much extra revenue a month you could get if more local searchers saw your profile.

Illustrative map · not a rank scanExample: a plumber who gets seen in more searches
A hypothetical plumber uses the starting assumptions: 500 searches a month, 15% current visibility and a 45% target. Enquiry and close rates stay the same.
We made these numbers up so you can see how the sum works. They are not averages from other contractors. The model allows part of a job, like 3.6, because it works in monthly averages.
The extra 30 percentage points
- 500 searches × (45% − 15%)150 extra views
- 150 views × 8% enquiry rate12 extra enquiries
- 12 enquiries × 30% close rate3.6 extra jobs
- 3.6 jobs × $5,000$18,000 / month
Revenue goes from $9,000 to $27,000. Job costs and SEO fees still need to come out.

Where to find your own numbers
- Search demand
- Estimate relevant service searches in your actual coverage area with a local keyword-planning tool. A national search total is a different market.
- Visibility share
- Estimate the share of those searches where your profile is seen. A map-grid rank percentage is worked out a different way, so check it before you type it in here.
- Enquiries and jobs
- Compare profile views, tracked enquiries and sold jobs for the same period. Remove duplicates before working out contact and close rates.
- Profitability
- Take labour, materials, overhead and SEO spend out of the added revenue. The model assumes demand and your sales rates stay the same. It can't tell you when your rankings will improve.
