Many of our top-tier notaries have found that having a presence on Google Business Profile and Yelp is the most effective way to drive consistent, high-intent traffic to their NotaryVisit site.

If you're just starting to build your online presence, Facebook is also a powerful way to get your first clients quickly by engaging directly with people in your local community.

If you aren't appearing in these places, potential clients in your area are likely being directed to your competitors instead.

Here is a simple plan to ensure your website is the first thing local customers see.

1. Claim Your Google Business Profile

This is the best way to ensure you show up when someone searches “Notary near me.”

  • Go to google.com/business and sign in.
  • Enter your business name.
  • If you don't have a physical office, for “Physical Office,” select No.
  • Set your Service Area to your county (or region) and include your travel radius (e.g., 40 miles).
  • Link your NotaryVisit URL (e.g. https://notaryvisit.com/your-id) in the website field so local searchers go straight to your booking page.

2. Create Your Yelp Business Page

Local residents often use Yelp specifically to find high-rated mobile professionals.

  • Go to biz.yelp.com and click “Verify my free listing” or “Add my business.”
  • Add your business details and select that you travel to your customers.
  • Add your NotaryVisit URL (https://notaryvisit.com/your-id) to the website field to funnel those leads directly to your booking page.

3. Use Facebook to Get Clients Fast

Facebook is the fastest way to get your first clients, especially when you're just starting.

Use your existing personal profile, or create one if you don't already have one.

4. Here are some more examples of where you can add your link

Since you may already be established on professional platforms, linking them to your new site creates a cohesive “brand” across the web.

  • Notary Cafe: Log in and add your new URL (https://notaryvisit.com/your-id) to your “Website” or “Biography” section.
  • LinkedIn & NNA: Update your “Contact Info” or “Website” fields with https://notaryvisit.com/your-id.
