Google Business Categories
Categories describe your business and connect you to customers who search for the products or services you offer.
For example, if your primary category is “Pizza restaurant,” Google may show your business in someone’s local search results when they search for “Restaurants,” “Italian restaurants,” or “Pizza.” Your category is just one of many factors that can affect your local ranking on Google.
