Proxies for Google Maps

Local businesses and agencies track where they appear in Google Maps and the local pack across their service area. Rankings change from one street to the next, so local SEO needs location-accurate checks. Here is how to set them up.

What is different about Google Maps

How Google Maps localises, limits and checks traffic, and what that means for your setup.

The map point matters most

Maps results follow the map's centre and zoom, which are set in the URL. The IP should be in the same metro so Google's other location signals agree.

Local pack vs Maps

The local pack in normal search and the Maps app rank similarly but not identically. Track the one your customers use.

Use the Places API for listing data

Google's Places API returns business details and ratings under its terms. Use it for structured listing data rather than scraping.
