Download websites made with Google Business Profiles

As you might have heard, Google is shutting down websites made with Google Business Profiles in March 2024.

This was a crucial service for many small and local businesses who did not want to deal with the challenges of running their own website. Websites are still important and often a differenciator when people looking for local businesses.

Not having a website can lead to fewer customers and, thus, less money for your business. To avoid that you should act before the service is shutting down and move your website to another service.

There are a couple of services out there to easily create and host a website, but do you really have the time for that? We offer a painless way of migrating your existing Google Business Website and hosting it for free without facing the challenge of creating a new one.

What are Google My Business Websites?

The Google Business Profile is an easy way to reach potential customers in the Google search. You add your company details, verify the address, and get a listing. Your listing will be shown on location-based searches within the search results and also on Google Maps.

Most local businesses already know that it’s important to have a profile and keep it up to date.

Later Google added the ability to create a website based on the information provided in the Google Business Profile. This has been an easy way to have a dedicated website and only have to keep one profile updated, as the website automatically gets updated each time you change something.

What to do now?

Your website will no longer be available after March 2024 and will be redirected to your Google Business Profile. While this at least ensures that people will get some information, you will lose the advantage of having a dedicated website for your business.

You can use one of the many offerings available online to create a new website.
Some of these tools are better than others, so here is a list of the most popular ones without any specific recommendations:

  • Wix
  • WordPress
  • Squarespace

Creating your own website comes with its own challenges – are you good at designing? Do you have the technical knowledge to handle that? Do you have time for that? Most likely not, that’s why you have used the Google Business Profile Website in the first place.
