your service area within a two-hour driving radius, but this can vary depending on the location.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For instance, businesses in smaller U.S. states like Rhode Island or Connecticut can

service area in Google Business Profile should match the information on your website, such as the \u201careas we serve\u201d page.<\/p>\n<p>If you have multiple listings for the same brand, do not add
