    2024 Diversity Update Reversal?

    Now I'm seeing more increases in organic impressions for LPs starting June 30 and it's for more locations than I was seeing before. Just noting this incase anyone else is also seeing it.

    Download all GBP reviews

    There are multiple ways to do this, but I really enjoy using Postamatic to pull in all reviews for a GBP that I manage into a Google Sheet. And it's free. I use it to document all reviews every once in a while as a backup. If you're interested, here's the info...

    Review Notifications

    Thank you for dropping in and contributing! What's interesting is this was for a Google account that manages over 100 locations so we aren't supposed to get email alerts for reviews: https://www.sterlingsky.ca/how-to-get-review-notifications-when-you-manage-over-100-google-my-business-listings/...

    Thanks for posting this thread. I wasn't getting them either until today. All of a sudden a ton came through. I had GBP Review email alerts turned on the whole time so now I'm wondering if this was a bug and it's been fixed now?

    2024 Diversity Update Reversal?

    One is around May 25 and the other May 20. I've been comparing Location Page impressions to GBP impressions and anytime GBP impressions go up, LP impressions go down. But this changed at the end of May. LP impressions are going up: one location to pre-DU levels and the other above pre-DU levels.

    2024 Diversity Update Reversal?

    Hi there, I was doing some research on locations that appear to have been hit by the 2024 Diversity Update. When looking in GSC since May, impressions for some of these locations have increased considerably to pre Diversity Update levels. I was wondering if anyone has seen hints at the 2024...

    Can you link to a noindex page from Google Business Profile?

    I like the social media link idea. This is a good option when you're limited. I'm also worried about tanking the GBP rankings by adding a page that's not indexable. Thanks Jason!

    Can you link to a noindex page from Google Business Profile?

    Thanks for commenting. I appreciate your contribution. I respectfully disagree that the outbound link chosen for GBP has no impact on GBP rankings: https://www.sterlingsky.ca/does-the-url-you-link-to-in-google-my-business-impact-ranking-in-the-local-pack/

    Can you link to a noindex page from Google Business Profile?

    Thanks for popping in. I like those ideas but they aren't options at the moment. In regards to noindex pages in GBP, I have never seen any Google documentation referencing it either.

    Can you link to a noindex page from Google Business Profile?

    Hi there, I wanted to start a discussion on this topic. I don't really want to do this at all, but I was wondering if this is allowed by Google. I haven't found a direct answer on this topic, but it seems the answer is yes, that Google allows it but that it's not a great idea. The only reason...

    Google Business Profile (GBP) Booking Links: Calendly

    Thanks for commenting. No, they don't have an integration for GBP. But here's an update. You're going to love this. The client removed the Booking link after contacting us for help. But they did not communicate this to us, so we spent time looking and thinking it was a bug. The whole time it...

    301 redirect vs. UTMs in the GBP website link

    How did this end up? Did you test using a URL that doesn't redirect? If so, did it impact rankings?
