Google and YouTube Connection

First things first, did you know that Google owns YouTube? It’s a powerful connection that we leverage for all our clients. We create a dedicated YouTube channel because, well, videos are awesome for your profile.

Seamless Integration

We take the integration game seriously. Uploading engaging videos to your YouTube channel and seamlessly linking them to your Google Business Profile—this synergy creates a dynamic online presence that speaks volumes about your business.

Guidelines and Restrictions

Now, let’s talk guidelines. There are a few things to keep in mind, especially around file size. We compress our client videos to around 70 megabytes to ensure smooth uploading. And the exciting news? We’ve figured out how to get longer videos up there too!

Front and Center on Your Profile

Ever wondered why some profiles have videos front and center, and others don’t? It’s not just about the length; it’s about the file size. We’ve mastered the art of compressing videos without compromising on quality, ensuring your business stands out.

Mobile Magic

Now, here’s the real magic. Google puts your videos right upfront on your profile. Picture this: someone’s scrolling through your pin on mobile, and boom—the video auto-plays, grabbing attention instantly. Talk about making a memorable impression!
