Local Pack & Google Maps Stats UAE 2025

Local search behaviour in the UAE is mainly action-oriented and mostly in cities such as Dubai, which are fast-moving, with users demanding quick and relevant results.

  • 76% of local searches result in a visit within 24 hoursThis indicates a strong desire; Google Maps users are usually prepared to act instantly, whether calling, visiting, or ordering a service.
  • Over 60% of users click on Google Maps results before visiting websitesTo most users, a simple click on the Local Pack allows making a decision, by rating, reviews, photos and proximity, without going to a single site.
  • Mobile searches dominate local discoveryMost local searches occur on mobile devices and often include the word 'near me'. Therefore, location accuracy and profile optimisation are crucial.
