Hi @Kurt Steinbrueck - thanks for your interest. The 2021 and 2022 dates you're seeing are a larger section of time that you can filter by. What I showed in the screengrab was a zoomed-in section on that Jan 2023 date range. Thanks in advance.

Bump! Anyone know what this may be?

Hi All, Our site, an insurance broker in Canada, saw a big drop in traffic on or around January 31st. Wincher shows that all of our direct competition experienced the same thing. It doesn't appear to be linked to a Google update, but I could be wrong, and that's why I'm reaching out to you...

Thanks for all the considered responses, folks! Much appreciated!

Hi All, looking for your collective expertise on some advice I received that just doesn't sound right to me. I asked our developer about layout out our site in a way to better capture local searches with something like sitename.com/location/service1 and sitename.com/location/service2, etc...

Thanks @Yan Gilbert

Has anyone had any success with developing a Google stack? The site I am working on has all the usual key items (GMB, GMB page, YouTube) but I haven't gone so far to try Google Docs, etc Is it a) considered a good practice? b) worth the effort? Thanks in advance, as always!

Thanks for the follow-up. I haven't checked yet!

Thank you, @Phil Rozek.

Hi @WilliamA - again, thanks for the quick response. As mentioned in my original post, does it matter that these two GMB's are my own listings? Does ownership affect the audit?

Hi @WilliamA - thanks for the quick response. The two GMB's I am looking to do review audits on are: Wedgwood Insurance Limited - Google Search and Four Winds Design - Google Search

@WilliamA - great tool, thank you! I've been running it for 24 hours now and I love the simplicity and convenience! One question, however, is it not possible to run the audits on locations you own? When I try and do it it says "GMB Everywhere is processing. Stay on this tab to continue...

What is considered best practice for a service area business? We write business across the whole province but at present have only listed the major cities and towns. Would we be better off listing the whole province as our service area? Thanks, folks!

Thanks @korrigan and @Colan Nielsen for the prompt responses! Good to know this is a known issue and doesn't affect our GMB performance. Love this community!

Anyone else having an issue where GMB repeatedly marks a listing as incomplete, in my case 85% complete, saying it needs a logo even though one has already been uploaded and is live? Any insights / solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
