I can't for the life of me figure out why Google keeps rejecting my Cover photo. It's within the file size. It's within the width and length parameters. It has no text overlays. It's a photo of me and my wife (we're Realtors). It's a very high def photo. It's a normal photo. What gives...

Thanks Greg. Is it necessary to have already submitted citations prior to submitting for my GBP?

ar are you referring to my real estate license or the businesses business license? the business license would be in the name of the Brokerage not mine.

yes I have my real estate license but it doesn't show the address on it.

I don't have anything with that address on it. If I have a website dialed in (with that address), 100+ citations (with that address), social media accounts (with that address), trademark with the state my team team, would you suggest anything that should be done?

I'm a Realtor and my broker has an office and I want that office location as my GBP address. There are a couple of other agents that have their profile address at that same location and have had them for many many years. I'd heard that Google's efforts to verify profiles have become stringent...

I've noticed that for one of my keyword phrases (which has the most # of Avg. Monthly Searches) out of the 15 that I am tracking, isn't showing a Map Pack in the search results. Anyone know why that may be? It happens to be one where I know I rank #1 (Localo says so), but the Map isn't showing...

anyone know?

this tightening up that I am referring to has only happened in the last week.

One other thing. I use a site called Localo to monitor my map pack rankings for different keyword phrases. I've noticed on several of them that Localo shows that I rank, but when I go to Google and run the search term, the map pack doesn't even show up. Anywhere. Any reason why that happens?

Can it be from a drop down menu or does it have to be text on the page?

I've noticed a decline in my Google Business Profile rankings for keywords, but specifically in the outer areas of my service radius. While my rankings near the city center remain strong, consistently holding the #1 or #2 spots, I've seen a significant drop the further out you go from the...
