Overview ## What it does A visitor who cannot quickly find their nearest branch leaves. It is one of the most reliably measurable behaviours on a multi location website, and one of the most often ignored. The usual answer is a static list of addresses on a contact page, which works badly on a desktop and worse on a phone. Static lists also go stale. Hours change, a branch moves, a phone number is updated on the Google profile and not on the website, and the list quietly becomes a source of wrong information that customers act on. A locator that pulls live from each profile cannot drift. The hours on the page are the hours on the profile, because they are the same hours. Nobody has to remember to update a second copy. The other half is the page each result links to. A locator that sends everyone to one contact page wastes the visit. Each branch should have a page of its own to land on. Features ## Everything you get 1 ### Live details per branch Hours, phone and address pulled from each profile rather than typed into the page. 2 ### Search by postcode or town The way a visitor actually looks, not a list they have to scan. 3 ### Sorted by distance Nearest first, because that is the only order that matters to somebody looking. 4 ### Map and list together Some people read a map, some read a list. Give them both. 5 ### Open or closed right now Live from the profile hours, including holiday exceptions. 6 ### Links to a real branch page Each result goes to that location page rather than a shared contact page. 7 ### Directions in one tap Straight into their maps app. 8 ### Works on a phone Where most people are when they are looking for a branch. 9 ### Filter by what a branch offers So somebody needing a specific service finds the site that has it. ******** Store Locator How it works ## From setup to first result - 1 ### Connect every location The locator is only as complete as the list behind it. - 2 ### Let it pull live details Do not type hours into the page. That is the copy that goes stale. - 3 ### Add postcode search It is how people look, and scanning a list is not. - 4 ### Sort by distance Nearest first. Alphabetical is useless to a visitor. - 5 ### Link to a branch page Not to a shared contact page. The visit is wasted otherwise. - 6 ### Show open or closed now It is the single most useful thing on the page. - 7 ### Check it on a phone Most people using a store locator are already out. ******** Store Locator Why it matters ## What changes when you use it Without it- A static list of addresses - Alphabetical ordering - No postcode search - Linking everything to one contact page - Never testing it on mobile → With Store Locator- People leave when they cannot find a branch - Static lists go wrong quietly - A list is not a locator - Distance is the only useful order - Open now answers the real question ### People leave when they cannot find a branch It is measurable, and it is one of the clearest losses on a multi location site. ### Static lists go wrong quietly A hours change on the profile and not the page, and customers act on the page. ### A list is not a locator Scanning twenty addresses on a phone is not the same as typing a postcode. ### Distance is the only useful order Nobody looking for a branch cares about alphabetical. ### Open now answers the real question Most people checking a locator want to know if they can go now. ### A shared contact page wastes the visit Somebody who found their branch should land on that branch page. ### What it measures - Locations listed - Searches performed - Results clicked through - Directions requested - Branches missing from the list - Hours accuracy against the profiles Reports & outputs ## Reports you can send Every output can be exported and carries your branding, never ours. ****** Example report Output ### Locator page Map and list, searchable.

Common mistakes ### A static list of addresses It goes stale, and customers act on the wrong hours before anyone notices. ### Alphabetical ordering Nobody looking for a branch cares about the alphabet. ### No postcode search Scanning twenty addresses on a phone is a reason to leave. ### Linking everything to one contact page A visitor who found their branch should land on that branch page. ### Never testing it on mobile That is where nearly everybody using a locator actually is.

Hours change on the profile, the page does not, and customers act on the wrong information. **Q: How do people usually search?** By postcode or town, then by distance. Any locator that makes them scan a list instead is losing people. **Q: Does it show whether a branch is open?** Yes, live from the profile hours including holiday exceptions, which is usually the thing the visitor actually wants to know. **Q: Where should results link to?** To that branch own page. Sending everyone to a shared contact page wastes a visitor who had already found what they wanted. **Q: Does it work on mobile?** It is built for it. Most people using a store locator are already out and on a phone. **Q: What if a branch closes?** Remove it from the record and it disappears from the locator, rather than sitting there sending people to a closed shop. **Q: How many locations can it handle?** Any number. The search and distance sorting are what make a long list usable.
