Categories

Also known as: business categories · primary category

Categories describe what a business does and are among the strongest factors in what searches a profile can appear for. A profile has one primary category and optional additional categories.

What this means for your profile

Changing the primary category can shift ranking and, in some cases, trigger a re-review — choose it deliberately.
