Top 3 on Google Maps takes 44% of the clicks.
#4 and below split what's left.
When somebody types "tacos near me" or "Korean BBQ Koreatown," Google shows three pins on the map. They pick one of three. Walk there. Order. Done.
If your restaurant isn't in those three pins for your neighborhood, you don't lose 10% of customers. You lose almost half. Boyle Heights, K-Town, Van Nuys, Pacoima — same rule everywhere.
Para dueños: si no estás en el top 3 del mapa, los clientes ni te ven.
