How Do I Hide My Address on Google My Business?
The address on your Google Business Profile is public, to help customers find your business on Maps and Search. However, if your business is registered to your home address, and you don’t serve customers at this location, you can remove it and list your service area instead.
Listing your service area, lets customers know the geographic area where you can provide your products and services.
Important: If you don’t serve customers at your business address, do not enter an address under the ‘Info’ tab in Business Profile Manager. Leave the ‘business location’ field blank.
To use a service area, your business must be one of the following business types:
- Service-area business: A business that visits or delivers to customers directly but doesn’t serve customers at their business address.
- For example, businesses like cleaning services or plumbers.
- Hybrid business: A business that serves customers at their business address but also directly visits or delivers to customers. If your business doesn’t have permanent on-site signage, it’s not eligible as a shop front and should be listed as a Service Area Business.
- For example, a dine-in restaurant that also delivers food.
Manage Service Area For Your Business
- Go to your Business Profile.
- To manage your service area:
- With Google Search, select Edit profile > location.
- With Google Maps, select Edit profile > Business information> location.
- Under ‘location and areas’, next to ‘Service area’, select the pencil icon.
- Select suggested service areas or enter a service area.
- You can set up to 20 service areas based on the cities, postcodes or other areas that you serve.
- Select Save.
