Set Up Your Profile
Add your images, contact details, and hours so visitors can recognize and reach your business. All of these are edited from your business Settings.
Profile Photo (Avatar)
Section titled “Profile Photo (Avatar)”Your profile photo appears in the directory, your page header, activity posts, and search results.
- Go to your business Settings > Avatar
- Click Select Image or drag and drop
- Adjust the crop area
- Click Save
Use at least 200x200 pixels, a JPG or PNG, ideally your logo. The image is cropped to a circle or square.
Cover Image
Section titled “Cover Image”Your cover image is the banner at the top of your business profile.
- Go to Settings > Cover Image
- Click Select Image or drag and drop
- Position the image
- Click Save
Around 1200x400 pixels works well. Keep it under 2MB for fast loading, and leave room where your business name overlays.
Contact Information
Section titled “Contact Information”Go to Settings > Contact Information to add:
- Phone - include the area code; visitors can tap to call on mobile.
- WhatsApp - include the country code (for example
+1 555 123 4567); visitors can open a WhatsApp chat. - Email - use a professional business address; inquiries go here.
- Website - include
https://; the link opens in a new tab.
Location
Section titled “Location”Enter your street address, city, state or province, postal code, and country. Once saved, the map shows your location and the business becomes findable in location searches. If the pin is wrong, enter latitude and longitude manually to correct it. City plus country is the minimum for location to work.
Business Hours
Section titled “Business Hours”Go to Settings > Work Hours and first choose an availability status:
| Status | Shows | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| No Hours Listed | Nothing | Online-only or private services |
| Always Open | “Open 24/7” | Always-accessible places |
| Custom Hours | Your weekly schedule | Shops, restaurants, offices |
| Temporarily Closed | “Closed for now” | Renovations, seasonal closures |
| Permanently Closed | “Closed” | No longer operating |
For Custom Hours, enable each open day and set opening and closing times. To add a mid-day break (for example a restaurant lunch closure), click Add Hours to add a second time slot for that day. Visitors see an Open or Closed status plus your full weekly schedule.
For short-term changes such as holidays, use an announcement instead of rewriting your hours.
