This week, starting in the USA, is some cool new exposure for small businesses through Google Maps. Google has now begun showing small orange dots on Google Maps to signify businesses which now feature professional interior business photos, taken through the Google recent Business photos program.
In order to see the businesses on Google Maps which have interior photos, you need to drag the small icon of the person over the map as if you were looking to see 'Street View'. It's a great bit of extra exposure for local business owners, as well as users who would like to tour the inside of a place they intend to visit.
See below some examples of these new 'Google Business Photos':
