    Incorrect Business Icon Still Showing on Street View

    We've built out the major citations for this location. I'll have to look into our options to update StreetView ourselves. Google just updated the next block less than a month ago, so we'll probably just wait.

    Incorrect Business Icon Still Showing on Street View

    We took over a location in December that was previously a CVS. The old CVS listing has been marked as permanently closed, and our new Google Business Profile is active and looks good overall. The Street View image itself hasn’t been updated since May 2024, and that’s fine. We’re okay with...

    Does Changing GBP Name Disrupt What Google "Sees" as Profile Age?

    Have other listings been updated at the same time? If not (or maybe even if they have but Google hasn't had time to reference them yet), my guess would be that the drop/stagnation is caused by NAP inconsistencies

    Search Bar Reverting to Previous Listing Name

    That sounds like some kind of bug especially if you've tried it on multiple devices/networks. Once I get caught in a loop on an issue like this, the only solution has been to post here or on https://support.google.com/business/community?hl=en in hopes that it gets somebody's attention. Would...

    Is a client's Crazy Video Call with Google Support for re-verification normal?

    I think them saying “show us the car that drives to those locations. We need to see the license plate" is definitely unusual, but the other changes they requested are consistent with my experience. It sounds like this support agent had a bit of a power trip. Glad you were still able to get the...

    Embedded GBP Map Affect Rankings?

    To me, the question is does the map impact the rankings or is the inclusion of a map improving user metrics which in turn impacts rankings. If running a test, it'd be important to make sure that adding the map is the only change you're making and that it's not part of a larger page redesign or...

    Large Drop in GBP Search Impressions Last Week. Anyone Seeing Something Similar?

    Would it account for the fact that the drops starts on the 24-25th? Is Google rolling out the update a few days before announcing it?

    Large Drop in GBP Search Impressions Last Week. Anyone Seeing Something Similar?

    Last week (Jun 29-Jul 5) our company saw a large and very uniform decrease in search impressions for our GBPs when compared to the previous period. There was a similarly sized drop YoY but not as uniform. We're a national retail business with a lot of seasonal variance, so WoW fluctuations...

    Ranking for neighborhoods vs big city

    It would depend on the amount of competition you have for those neighborhoods. If a lot of other businesses have dedicated pages, you're less likely to be able to compete by just mentioning. Regardless, something is better than nothing.

    Ranking for neighborhoods vs big city

    I've had a lot of success with niche location pages in the past. The key is to make the content unique and specific to that area. Like fisicx said, if you have specific examples of work in those areas or reviews from customers in those areas that would be ideal. I'd still consider creating...
