How to Rank No. 1 on Google Business Profile in 2026

Bom Dia from Lisbon. So you want to improve your Google Business Profile?

Let’s search for Lisbon coffee shops on Google Maps… ☕️

If you are a local store, or a restaurant or a coffee shop…Google Business Profile is extremely important!

DejaVu Saldanha-Quiosque de Comidas & Bebidas is number one on the search results followed by Acento Coffee and SoLo Brewing.

Why is DejaVu ranked the highest?

They have 726 Reviews. Numbers matter.
They have a lot of pictures too.

What I like about Acento Coffee is they have a menu button on their Google Business Profile.

SoLo Brewing Coffee has a reserve and menu button on their Google Business Profile.

Details Matter!

The more details: pictures, buttons, reviews, open hours, price range, accessibility, etc.. the better it is on your Google Business Profile! Your ranking will be at the top!

Hope that helps!
Cheers!
Obrigado!

Image Optimization in 2026 – Image SEO Pro tips!

Today is all about optimizing your images for your website, ranking, and hopefully more clients.

Let’s look at a former client, CJ Lighting as an example:

These first two file names are horrible.

You need to rename them to “indoor lighting commercial”, that’s much better!

1ST TIP

To rename your image, select the image, go to “Rename” and rename “dallas-lighting-by-CJ

2ND TIP:

ALT Tag “Alternative Text for Images”

Why is it important for SEO?

1 Search Engines can’t “see” images
1 Google and other search engines don’t visually interpret images the way humans do. They rely on textual signals to understand what an image represents.
2 The ALT Text provides:
1 A description of the image’s content
2 Context for how the image relates to the page
3 Keywords that help search engines categorize the image

This helps your page rank better in:
• Image search results
• Regular web search, because images contribute to topic relevance

2 Accessibility is a ranking factor
1 ALT text is essential for screen readers used by people with visual impairments. Google has repeatedly emphasized the accessibility aligns with good SEO practices.
2 While accessibility alone isn’t a direct ranking factor, Google rewards:
1 Better user experience
2 Better semantic structure
3 Better page quality signals

Now let’s go to WordPress to find an image to change the ALT Tag.

1 You select the image
2 Click on the “Edit file”
3 Call it “Java tutorial” Why? Because its image is all about Java training

3RD TIP

Image size, which is probably the most important

Look at the size of this image, 4 megabytes! No, it needs to be 200 bytes or less.

How do we resize an image?
1.Go to https://tinypng.com/ (FREE Resource)
2. Select/Upload the file
3. Reduced image size by 73%

Thank you so much!
