LOCAL VISIBILITY

Use genuine photos to explain your business

Useful photographs help customers understand a place or service, but they should not imply experiences or permissions that do not exist. Separate marketing imagery from customer-submitted feedback attachments.

A practical workflow

  1. Choose relevant images

    Show the real business where possible. Label illustrative or sample product images clearly when they are used to explain a workflow.

  2. Check permission

    Consider identifiable people, private documents and sensitive surroundings. Do not assume an upload automatically authorises public reuse.

  3. Keep destinations separate

    A reviewbuddy.in feedback photo does not automatically appear on Google. Customers choose what to upload there themselves.

Avoid this mistake

Avoid presenting stock people as customers or reusing private uploads as promotional material without permission.

What to check

Check image relevance, permission and the accuracy of any caption.

Use Google’s own guidance

Google explains local results through relevance, distance and prominence. Accurate profile details and genuine customer feedback are useful parts of a local presence, but no reviewbuddy.in plan guarantees a position. Avoid promises about first place, automatic review publication or invented customer outcomes. Treat keyword context as a writing aid only when it matches the experience.
