Google MapsIf you have a location that you want consumers to find, search for the address in Google. You may find that the marker for your location is off by a building or two, or as much as a block. You can learn how to move it (it’s simple) here:

There are a variety of other valuable map services that Google provides, check them out here:

You can probably do this in other search engines, but I’d recommend getting Google right first and foremost.

Also when you put your physical address to Google map, don’t forget to verify it with change-of-address-online.com/us-postal-service-change-of-address.php.
