Geotag photos for your Google Business Profile
Local businesses upload photos of their premises, team and work. Geotagr writes your location, business name and keywords into each photo file in one pass, so every image carries consistent, accurate information about where it was taken and what it shows.

What you can do
Business details in every file
Fill in business name, phone, website and address once and write them as standard IPTC and XMP fields, along with a title, description and keywords.
Reusable presets
Save the details of a location as a preset and apply them to the next batch in a click.
Private by design
Photos are processed on your device. You download the tagged JPGs or a ZIP and upload them wherever you like.
How it works
- Add your photos or drop them on the page.
- Search for your address or click the map to set the location.
- Write the title, description, keywords and business details.
- Write the tags and download the photos or a ZIP.
Good to know: Embedded metadata makes your photos accurate and self-describing. Platforms decide for themselves whether they read it, and Geotagr cannot promise any change in rankings or visibility.
What to write in each field
Title: a short, plain description of what the photo shows, with your business name if it fits naturally. "Fresh sourdough on the front counter, Riverside Bakery" is more useful than "IMG_2041" or a string of search terms.
Description: one or two sentences in normal language. Say what is in the picture, where it is and, if it matters, what the customer gets: "Our counter at the Riverside Bakery in Millbrook, with loaves baked on site each morning." Write it for a person reading it, not for a search engine.
Keywords: somewhere between five and fifteen terms that genuinely describe the photo: the product or service, the type of business, the neighbourhood and town, and your business name. Geotagr removes duplicates for you. Very long lists add nothing and can look like spam.
Business details: use exactly the same business name, address, phone number and website that appear on your profile and your own website. Consistent details across your photos, listings and site are easier for people and tools to match up than slight variations.
A worked example
Say a bakery has twelve new photos: the shop front, the counter, a few products and the team. In Geotagr you add all twelve, search for the shop's address and check that the pin sits on the building itself rather than the middle of the street, then select every photo and write the shared details once: business name, phone, website, address and a handful of keywords such as "bakery", "sourdough", "Millbrook" and the business name.
Next you click through the photos one by one and give each its own title and description, because the shop front and a tray of croissants are different pictures. On plans that include presets, save the business details as one so next month's batch takes a few clicks. Finally, write the tags and download the JPGs or a ZIP; on plans with renaming, file names can be built from a pattern such as the city and title rather than the camera's numbering.
Common mistakes
Pinning the wrong spot. Address search can land on the street, the town centre or a nearby building. Zoom in and drag the pin onto your premises before you write anything.
Copying one description onto every photo. A batch should share the location and business details, but each picture deserves its own title and description that says what it actually shows.
Stuffing keywords. Listing every nearby town or every service you have ever offered does not describe the photo. Keep keywords to what is in the picture and where it was taken.
Tagging photos that are not yours, or not from that place. Only write your location into photos taken there, and only use images you have the right to publish.
Editing after tagging. Some photo editors and export tools drop metadata when they save a new copy. Do your cropping and colour work first, then tag the final file.
What happens to the metadata after you upload
Geotagr writes the information into the file itself, and you can check it with any EXIF viewer or with our free metadata checker. What happens next is up to the service you upload to. Many large platforms resize and re-encode images and remove most embedded metadata from the copy they show the public. Google has not said how Business Profile uses the metadata in uploaded photos.
That is why we describe geotagging as good housekeeping rather than a ranking trick. Tagged files stay organised in your own archive, keep their details when you publish them on your own website, and carry the right credit when you send them to a designer, agency or directory.

Frequently asked questions
Does geotagging photos improve my Google Business Profile ranking?
We cannot promise that. Google has not published how it uses photo metadata, and results vary. What Geotagr reliably does is write correct GPS coordinates, titles, descriptions and keywords into your files so they are consistent and accurate. Some platforms strip metadata on upload.
Are my photos uploaded to your servers?
No. Geotagr reads and writes photo metadata in your browser. The image files never leave your device; only account, quota and optional AI or place-search requests go to our servers.
Which file types can I use?
JPG, HEIC, PNG and WebP files can be opened. HEIC, PNG and WebP are converted and saved as JPG so the metadata is widely readable.
Can I tag many photos at once?
Yes. Select several photos, or all of them, and apply the same location and text to the whole batch. The batch size depends on your plan.
What keywords should I add to business photos?
Terms that describe the photo and the place: the product or service shown, the type of business, the neighbourhood or town, and your business name. Five to fifteen honest keywords are plenty.
Should every photo have exactly the same location?
Photos taken at your premises can share the same pin. Photos of work done elsewhere, such as at a customer's site, should be placed where they were taken, or left without a location if the exact address is private.
How can I check that the tags were written?
Geotagr re-reads each photo after writing it and marks it as verified. You can also drop the downloaded file into our free photo metadata checker, or open it in any EXIF viewer.
