Google Testing Posts and Description Position in Local Finder.

[BenFisher]

I was searching for Seattle music lessons while doing some case study work and noticed that both Posts and Descriptions for GMB are above the fold for a few businesses. This bodes potentially some good news for these features. Previously it was spotted that GMB Posts were at the top of the mobile GMB Profile.

Add to this here is another interesting test, notice that Q&A is missing and description and posts are at the top.

Good find, @BenFisher. I haven't been able to replicate it.

It just occurred to me that Google might have more success in motivating business owners to keep the GMB posts "fresh" (i.e. a new one every 7 days) if the new posts always sat in that catbird seat, and would drop to the bottom of the KP only if 7 days go by without a new post.
