If you run a website for the local business, you may add the following code to the website, replacing the example data (between the <script> tags) with what is copied to your clipboard and/or saved to a file.


<script type="application/ld+json">
{
	"@context": "https://schema.org",
	"@type": "LocalBusiness",
	"name": "Your Business",

	"email": "user@example.com",
}
