Table Of Contents

Connecting your Google Business Profile (GBP) allows NGAZE to analyze local search visibility, monitor reviews, and include location-level insights in your dashboards and monthly reports.

This integration is essential for local SEO, reputation tracking, and understanding how customers discover your restaurant on Google.

⚠️ Important: NGAZE connects to Google Business Profile with read-only access. NGAZE does not edit your profile, respond to reviews, or publish posts unless explicitly enabled or approved.
