Another reason why we shouldn’t limit our GMB categories just look at the displayed categories based on the query for 205 Disclaimer: This is for educational purposes only. Any business names shown are publicly available on Google Business Profile, and no affiliation or endorsement is implied...

This is amazing! So far AI mode seems to play a huge part in rankings and does not seem to follow the 3 days cycles I have noticed when relying on just CTR. The last time we interacted with that keyword was on the 13th of April ( AI mode with a different keyword // business... ) Before...

@ElizabethRule no I have not but I'll keep an eye on that

Business rankings after a week of just using A.I Mode to interact with the business. ( 25+ chats ) This is extremely interesting, I plan on pausing the A.i mode engagements for this keyword and see how long it takes to decline, Ill share more in a bit. This might be better than CTR After a week

1- Phone Number with TEL tag ( Must be able to click/ bring up the dialer if on mobile). It can also be a " Call Now" button 2 -Local business Schema markups ( I use callrail so I usually add my main line + dynamic phone numbers) 3- Footer will not work, I've tried ( Must be above the fold )...

It's been over a year since that came out. It can be triggered by having the telephone number displayed on the landing page ( Preferably the main header or menu ). I've seen more consistency when the whole number is displayed rather than just the Phone Icon. Agencies that manages multi...

@keyserholiday exactly that's been our experience too they'd also need a way to prevent competitors from weaponizing it . Imagine being able to get your competitor suspended just by sending fake clicks to their listing. system is designed to ignore bad signals, not punish businesses for...

Thanks for the reply Joy, and I respect your position on it. Regarding Ben Fisher's franchise story, I am curious about what "overly aggressive" looked like in that case. Based on what I usualy see with our franchise clients is that they seem to attract extra scrutiny from google for reasons...

Right now, not many people are talking about AI Mode because the technology to track is not mainstream. So I'm sharing data and proven tests that you really won't find anywhere else. A.I overview for now is : Business ├─ Place ID - Maps and Search ├─ CID -Business id └─ Knowledge Graph...

Concluding this series of posts on how intentful CTR can help GMBs.

While logged in, I guess get a live calendar check for bookings by " starting a task " ? seems to be a hit or miss. Tried it a few times, the answers were not consistent at all. I wonder if this only works for websites that use the booking providers Google supports? Not a single GMB was...

Here's a good example. This is the same GMB I previously posted about, and this time I'm tracking the keywords without any location targeting see how bad it's performing? Rank 514 out of 513 competitors. 0% visibility. Every single point on the grid is 20+. The top 5 competitors are all massage...

@mabourz Honestly, if you're not ranking in the top 10 and you're only looking for "organic" ways to increase engagements, you'll be fighting an uphill battle. Let's say you're position 3 and trying to get to P1. that is doable because users naturally look at the top 3 nd on the app it's...

This GMB is turning 3 Weeks old Friday (). I know newly setup businesses get a boost but looks like this is holding on strong. Black and white circles are " decoys". where clicks are purposely interacting with other businesses that are ranking for the same term but are ranked in the...
