Upload Images Automation

SAIGE's photo automation drips your photos onto your Google Business Profile with proper geo-tags, keyword-rich filenames and the right cadence so each upload counts as a ranking signal — not just a pretty picture sitting in a gallery.

Where photos come from

• CompanyCam — native integration, every photo your crew takes flows in automatically
• Manual upload — drag-and-drop into the Photos tab in the SAIGE dashboard
• Email-to-SAIGE — send photos to a private inbox tied to your account
• Zapier — any photo source (Dropbox, Google Drive, Buildertrend, ServiceTitan) connects through a Zap

What SAIGE does to each photo before it publishes

1. Reads or stamps EXIF data — every photo carries the suburb, zip code and category geo-coordinates Google's algorithm reads
2. Renames the file — keyword + location semantics replace the camera's IMG_4823.jpg-style filename
3. Optimizes for image SEO — resizes to GBP's preferred dimensions, strips unneeded metadata, ensures correct format
4. Categorizes — exterior vs. interior vs. team vs. product vs. service, so the upload lands in the right gallery
5. Schedules a drip slot — photos publish a few per day rather than dumping all at once

Drip cadence vs. batch uploads

Posting 30 photos in one Tuesday dump tells Google you had a good Tuesday. Posting 30 photos at 3–4 per day for a week tells Google you're a consistently active business. The drip cadence is the entire point — it produces 7 ranking signals instead of 1.

Photo categories Google rewards

• Exterior — building, signage, parking. Google strongly rewards these for proximity confidence.
• Interior — work environment, waiting area, equipment
• Team — staff at work (with consent — see callout)
• Products — what you sell, displayed cleanly
• Services — at-work shots of services being performed (job sites, treatments, photographs)
• Identity — logo and branded artwork (mostly for the profile cover)
