What Local Maps gives you

A rank for every spot, not one average

Pick a search like “furnace repair”, a grid from 3×3 to 7×7 and a radius from half a mile to 15 miles. Each dot is where you rank from that spot, on a real street map, with the share of spots where you're in the top 3.

FAQ

Local Maps questions

What is a local rank map (geo-grid)?

A grid of points around your business. Groow runs the same search from each point, the way a customer standing there would, and records where you rank. Google Maps results change block by block, so one number for a whole city hides where you win and where you lose.

Is Google AI Mode the same as Google AI Overviews?

No. AI Overviews is the AI summary at the top of regular Google results. AI Mode is Google's separate, chat-style search. They can name different businesses for the same search, so Groow maps each one on its own.

How is average position worked out?

Across every spot on the map. Where you're not in Google Maps' top 20, that spot counts as 21st, so a map where you disappear in places can't look better than it is.

How many maps can I run?

Maps are counted in points: one search from one spot. Growth includes 1,500 points a month, about thirty 7×7 maps. Agency Starter includes 500 a month for each client location. Enterprise plans are set to your locations.

Do free accounts get a map?

Yes, one small starter map of your area when you sign up, so you can see where you stand. Running your own maps, campaigns, reviews analysis and listing watch is on paid plans.
