When someone in Baghdad or Erbil searches your service on Google Maps, your profile decides whether they call you or your competitor. Most Iraqi businesses haven't even claimed theirs. We make sure yours wins.
scoped after review. Setup, optimization, posts, review generation, monthly reporting tied to real calls.
Who manages Google Business Profile for Iraqi companies?
Ijjad sets up, optimizes, and manages Google Business Profiles for Iraqi businesses in Baghdad, Erbil, Basra, Mosul, and across the country. Plans are scoped after a discovery call and include verification, category strategy, weekly posts, review-generation flows, photo optimization, Q&A seeding, and monthly reporting tied to calls, direction requests, and website clicks.
Most Iraqi SMEs have either no Google Business Profile or a half-claimed one with two photos and zero reviews. The handful that have done it properly are dominating local search across their cities. "Near me" searches grew 500% globally over five years, and Iraq is in the middle of that wave right now. The impact of doing nothing is real: every month you don't appear in the Maps 3-pack, customers are calling someone else.
GBP works best alongside SEO and a fast website. Here's the full stack.
Your website has 3 seconds to convince a visitor to stay. We design websites that make those seconds count - visually sharp, fast-loading, and built to turn visitors into customers across Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the GCC. Every design starts with research into your market, your competitors, and how your actual customers behave online. The result is a custom, mobile-first website that looks professional, loads fast, and converts visitors into leads.
Learn moreA strong design still needs reliable engineering. We build custom React and Next.js sites with performance budgets, search-ready structure, API integrations, and content workflows matched to the project. PageSpeed is measured on each build, but no universal score or ranking outcome is promised.
Learn moreSaudi Arabia's e-commerce market hit strong regional growth in 2026 and Jordan's digital economy is growing at 16% annually. If you're not selling online, your competitors are capturing your customers. We build online stores that actually generate revenue.
Learn moreIjjad helps businesses in Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the GCC improve search visibility and connect it to qualified demand. Work starts from current query, page, technical, local, and conversion evidence; no page-one outcome or fixed timeline is guaranteed.
Learn moreSaudi Arabia's app market is racing toward growing quickly through 2033 and mobile is the primary internet access point across the GCC. We build iOS and Android apps that your users will actually want to keep on their phones.
Learn moreA complete, accurate Google Business Profile helps eligible local businesses appear with useful information when nearby customers search. Ijjad supports setup, category and service alignment, content, native-review workflows, citations, and reporting; map placement and calls are not guaranteed.

The Iraqi GBP gap
Indicative share of SMEs in each city with a claimed and actively-managed GBP. The first SMEs to claim and optimise win the 3-pack for years.
How we run Iraqi GBP
Weekly cadence beats monthly batching. Review velocity beats review count.
We audit the current profile (or claim a new one), pull citation data across Iraqi directories, and map the NAP-consistency picture. The audit doc lists exactly what to fix before we change anything live.
Deliverable: GBP audit + citation graph map.
Categories, attributes, services, products, photos (real ones, not stock), Q&A seeding, business description in Arabic + English (+ Kurdish for KRG). Every change documented for handover.
Deliverable: Fully optimised profile + 20+ photos.
WhatsApp-first review request (Iraqi buyers respond better than SMS), Arabic-language templates, one-tap review link, and per-staff attribution so you know which team member earns each review.
Deliverable: Live review-request flow.
Weekly posts (offer, update, event), review response within 24 hours, photo refresh, Q&A new entries. We don't batch a month of posts on day 1 — consistency matters more than volume.
Deliverable: Weekly posts + insights monitoring.
Plain-English report: search visibility, calls, direction requests, photo views, review velocity, and what changed. We tie GBP wins to actual business outcomes — not vanity impressions.
Deliverable: Monthly insights report + iteration plan.
Typical end-to-end timeline: Month-to-month, results in 60-90 days

First-party testimonials
These anonymized quotes are published by Ijjad. They are not native reviews from Google, Clutch, or another independent platform.
“Ijjad replaced an unclear website with a focused experience that gives prospects a much clearer path to contact us. The team understood our regional market and kept the work tied to the business goal.”
“We needed a website and mobile app on a tight scope. Ijjad gave us a practical plan that made sense for a startup, and Karam stayed directly involved through the important decisions.”
“Ijjad rebuilt the storefront around Mada checkout and a mobile-first customer flow. The result is easier for our team to manage and clearer for customers to use.”
“We launched our online catalog with cash-on-delivery and ZainCash in one checkout. The reconciliation dashboard gives our team a clearer way to manage orders, and the Arabic checkout feels native rather than translated.”
“The trilingual MVP treated Sorani Kurdish as a first-class language from the start rather than an afterthought. Ijjad also kept the page weight small for customers accessing it outside Iraq.”
“We needed governorate-level shipping rules, RFP-friendly service pages, and a site that loads well on mobile connections in southern Iraq. Ijjad delivered those requirements and walked our team through the cash-on-delivery operations before launch.”
