  If you wanted to do that, you could just edit it into a business listing directly, or even create one. If it’s from the “was this a business” prompt, I expect it takes a bunch of people to say yes, not just one. (And if you get that prompt, Google associates your number with a business already.)

    I expect it takes a bunch of people to say yes, not just one.

    I expect the algorithm is a) not publicly published, and b) changes periodically - like to just require one click when a particular department needs to “make their numbers” by the end of the quarter.

    I challenge you to find any “free and easy, one click” business listing that gets 0.1% of the visibility of a Google info business phone number.
