Good to know, thanks! If I find more examples I'll share.

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.

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...

Thanks for sharing your expertise here, much appreciated!

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!

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/

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.

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...

Anything you can share on this for multi-location?

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...

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

Update: I was able to confirm with Yext that Reserve With Google is not enabled for this account.

Hi there! I have a few listings that are showing a Calendly link like this: https://app.screencast.com/aWdC0PJro2Xw1 When I click on the "Providers" link it takes me to this help doc: https://support.google.com/reserve/answer/12174393 When I go into the "Bookings" settings, a different link...

I also have this email address for Yahoo support: yahoo-support@yext.com. Update: I just email them and my email got rejected saying: "Address not found"

The team says we already have Bulk Verification status but in their experience, it doesn't allow for re-verifying listings instantly. We have a few listings each month that get un-verified that we need to re-verify, and I was looking to see if there were any other options for doing this in an...
