Export Google Maps Results to CSV
CSV export is the handoff point between a Google Maps local business search and real work. A good CSV export should be readable, field-controlled, and easy to verify before it goes into local SEO, merchant review, or neighborhood market research workflows.
What a clean CSV should include
The first export does not need every possible field. It needs the fields people actually use.
| Field | Use case |
|---|---|
| Business name | Deduping local merchant records |
| Category | Filtering by local business type |
| Address | Territory review and local checks |
| City or region | Segmenting local markets |
| Rating | Quick quality signal |
| Review count | Reputation depth signal |
| Website | Verification and enrichment |
| Phone | Visible Google Maps contact detail, used with care |
| Google Maps URL | Source review and audit trail |
Export workflow
- Enter a business type, country, state, city, radius, and result limit.
- Preview the table before downloading anything.
- Hide columns that are not needed for the current workflow.
- Copy a page or selected fields for quick checks.
- Download the visible columns as a CSV.
- Keep the source URL so records can be verified later.
CSV quality checks
Before sharing a CSV with local SEO, market research, or operations teams, check for common cleanup issues.
- Remove duplicate business names and duplicate profile URLs.
- Keep phone and website fields separate.
- Do not merge address, city, and region into a single messy field.
- Preserve source URLs for important records.
- Label the search query and location used to generate the file.
Responsible export boundaries
CSV files are easy to share, which means they need clear boundaries. Export only the public local business fields you need, respect source terms, avoid abusive collection, and verify records before contacting a local merchant.
