Hey All

I would value your views on citation building in 2026 and where we see local search going?

thanks

Apple maps generally need a physical address. I have created 50+ Apple maps business profile and learned that Apple also wants the commercial address. I remember they ad doubt on some shared offices locations especially with the suite #. But when i raised the ticket they asked for sone visible proof and when I submitted it was manually approved.

So it seems like I screwed myself by trying to claim my Apple Maps listing to change some stuff. Having a storefront in my area is extremely expensive and completely unnecessary for my type of business, it wouldn’t be worth it just to get an Apple Maps listing back.
