GBP Listing without Business Location Questions

[Ryan Steinolfson]

Have some questions about GBP Listing without Business Location.

1.) Is there a way to add the listing in BrightLocal with no business location?
2.) Can we build citations with no business location?
3.) How can we help them with their local listings?

Hi Ryan,

There are a few resources that list out directories that allow you omit an address:

Hidden Address Sites

Whitespark's list of sites that allow businesses to keep their address private, while getting the benefits of citations & establishing an online presence.

Is this strategy having an effect on their local listing ranking, and how soon can we expect to see results?

@Ryan Steinolfson Some great questions here.

We have a post on how to use BrightLocal with no office here: No Office? No Problem: How Service-area Businesses Can Use BrightLocal

We also have a list of citation sites for service-area businesses, or businesses that don't display their address. Top Citation Sites for Service-area Businesses
