Business Hours of Operation is one type of Business Data that we store and use to synchronize to your website and, ultimately, other profiles across the internet.
Incorrect business hours can lead to significant customer frustration, so it's important to keep this data updated and accurate.
When you update your Business Hours of Operation in your Locable account, those changes will instantly appear on your website or free Locable profile, update your Google Business Profile (if you have your GBP account linked), update directory listings at participating Main Streets, Chambers, and DMO's, and many other places.
Start by clicking About Your Business:
Then scroll down to the Business Hours & Alerts section to update existing Hours or add and remove openings.
Once your changes are made, be sure to scroll down and click 'Save' so these changes will be saved and updated on your site.
If you have your Google Business Profile linked to your Locable account, be sure to click 'Save & Update Google Business Profile' so your data is accurately shown in Google when your business is searched!
Accuracy matters to Google and other Search Engines
Updating your hours regularly, if they change, is a great and simple way to improve your rankings and get more traffic directed to you when people search for related products and services during your open hours. Read more about this here.
