Restaurateurs, listen up! You can now make awesome menus on GMB
We all know the importance of your business’ presence on Google My Business. But getting listed is just the beginning — how much you “beef up” your listing can have a big impact on your conversion rate. Google knows the importance of giving quality information to the right people at the right time, and in the spirit of being informative, they have recently added a “structured menu” option for businesses. With this new feature, you can now add, update or delete multiple menus on a given location, you can also include menu sections within an existing menu. You can even list menu items with names, description, price and photos. For businesses (restaurants especially) hoping to “serve” information to the right consumer — this is a stellar new opportunity for you to shine.

Google’s Ode to… Cheese!?

The doodle took users on cheese-making journey, showing the nine-step process of making the beloved cheese variety. According to Search Engine Land, the Doodle was inspired by French artists Hervé Morvan and Raymond Savignac.
