all the services listed under both my primary and secondary categories apply to my business and the servces I actually offer. Many are just awkwardly worded. Further on this point, do you treat services like keyword bank? and add as many keyword variations that you think potential customers...

This is great info- ty! I wanted to ask about the services per each category (primary and additional). What do you do with all the extra and somewhat awkard services that Google has automatically added to the categories? For example, I am a photographer and Google has added "styles poses" and...

I thought so too, but read what Elizabeth wrote so wanted to clarify. and I know plenty of services that use review schema for their service (not products).

Hi Elizabeth! I had a question on the "review" property- is that something that SEO's are still doing for local businesses that provide a service and get reviewed on? I thought I read that Google is saying now that the "review" property only applies to actual products/items?

hello! just asking for clarification. when you say this, do you mean you are linking the BBB profile to the city/service page on the website?

thank you!

Hi there! what structure did you end up going with?

Hi Conor! Question for you- does it matter if the url is: /location-service or /service-location just curious what your thoughts are. Clients looking for my services will always search "service + location" in Google (they tell me and thats what I see in Google Search Console, too).

thank you!

ok thank you!

Hello! I am re-working my website and wanted to ask what is best practice for homepage vs service page location keywords to target. Meaning, if you are a location based business, there is bound to be overlap of the keywords your home page should rank for and then the keywords your service pages...

Hi Elizabeth! I read your article mentioned here- thank you!! so helpful. I wanted to ask you- I am a newborn photographer in Los Angeles- we service clients only at our home studio only and our GBP is set as a service area business. Our clients come to us from up to 30 miles away. I used Local...

thank you! and I don't have to worry that changing my hours to 24/7 would suspend my account? Since the service is photography, I guess I didn't think Google would think 24/7 was realistic (vs a plumber who makes sense to be 24/7).
