How do I write a good description for my listing?
To write a good description for your listing means thinking about what you really want to say without it being long-winded or missing out points that you think that someone may not need to know. The key things to add are:
In the first sentence, say who you are, what you are and where you are.
The second sentence says what you provide, for example, your products, services, etc.
The third sentence tells people how to get to you, what facilities you have (for instance, can someone park a car or bike by your shop?) Do you have toilets? Do you allow pets, etc?
Fourth sentence: How do people get further information? Do you have special offers?
If you are still not sure, use an AI Application like ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, etc to write it for you. Use the prompt example below to create a description listing:
Prompt:
As a content creator, write in plain UK English without any AI Jargon, phrases or codes, a business listing of around 400 words for a business called [business name], which is a [type of business] and located at [business address]. Follow the following structure to create the description. In the first sentence, include my business name, location and what we are. In the second sentence, write about our services and products. In the third sentence, add details of how customers can get to us via roads, public transport and what facilities are provided.
The listing has an audience of people who may not know the local area. The description needs to be truthful to the business you are writing about. Do not make up any information to create the listing. Lastly, only write in short sentences without the use of bullet points, headings or any other unnecessary points. The article must be written first for a human audience and secondly to rank highly on Search engines.

Once it creates the Listing description, check it carefully and ensure the information is correct and edit as required. Then copy and paste it into the space on your listing.
