Google Business Profile Not Showing? Do This!

Great content. This guy is straight and to the point without any of the fluff.

thanks

Very helpful. Thank you ! I registered my business Google page just yesterday and was worried why it doesn't show up when searched. So let me wait for a few days! Thanks again!

@@rankingacademy Thank you! Can I ask you a question. When I take my business profile, I see this message ' only visible to managers'. Is this something to be worried about? However I see the blue tick with my logo and the account is verified. I haven't received any account suspension mails from Google either.

9 years ago, I made a business profile that easily et verified. I don't even send verification request. Now it is getting more complicated. :(

[@rankingacademy]

Yes it has and that's because so many people create fake listings

[@_Yourlocalelectrician_]

Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous

[@fedorpalacios]

Hey Luc, great content as always. Just want to ask if you would suggest a company in the US to work with who are expert in ranking in the Grid (multiple locations for certain keywords) here in the states. I have a dental office in FL and I think this is what we need. Please let me know. Thanks

[@rankingacademy]

try sterlingsky.ca I know there're not in the states but at least they are near enough

[@dfwsportsfan126]

Thanks for the great content! My situation is a little different: My business profile is showing just fine on Maps and Search. However, I just received my first review on Maps but that review doesn't show on Search. Strange since you build one profile that is viewable in both places. Is there any reason for this happening?

[@rankingacademy]

It should show on both, not quite sure why it isn't

[@competaescapes]

Interesting, is there a video that applies when your customers are international like us. Our holiday homes are all in a town in Spain, but the majority of our customers are from outside of Spain.

[@rankingacademy]

Unfortunately there isn't because you're not a local business as such

[@Sean-me4fv]

When I check the verification status it now says “verified ✅” as of today but my business doesn’t show on Google or Google maps

[@rankingacademy]

How long ago did you create your listing? What are you searching for to make it show up?

[@Sean-me4fv]

@@rankingacademy I made the listing about two weeks ago, and now I search for "my business" and I see that it says it is verified, but it also says "not publicly visible".

Only 1 business is showing for our main keyword, this has only happened in the past few weeks. Maps and search only showing this 1 business and not the top 3 then list. Any advice?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated

HI, I have had my business profile set up for more than 3 years and approximately 9 days ago , I had a 5* review and now I cant find it on google when I search for it. Even when I try login to my email and then google search "my business" where, in your video it said (not publicly visible) it says Something went wrong and your Business Profiles can’t be shown .. Please help me, this has broken me

[@rankingacademy]

Sounds like your listing has been suspended. You should have received an email from google

[@adventureswithnienie1606]

Question. If you have a GMB but you don’t have an address listed, would that be a reason your business could be filtered out?

[@rankingacademy]

Your listing gets filtered out when too many businesses doing the same activity are located very close to each other. It's not related to whether or not you're hiding your address

[@thedivinemrss5228]

‘Doing business as’ name? Luc, please can you explain what that is?

[@rankingacademy]

If you're a person or a company, you can decide to do business using a name that's not your real, legal name. To do this, you file something called a DBA, which stands for "doing business as." This special name is also called a "trade name," "assumed name," or "fake business name." The reason for getting a DBA is to let everyone know that you or your business is using a different name for your operations, instead of your official legal name. So if your legal name doesn't include the keywords you want to rank for you can file for a DBA instead and legitimately use it on your google business name. Hope this makes sense. Not sure if this option is available in your country

Google maps not showing my business phone number

[@rankingacademy]

In certain regions, like India, verifying phone numbers for listings requires extra steps to ensure accuracy. Google has recently implemented a system that allows for the submission of additional information to validate phone numbers. A phone number won't be listed until it has been verified. This new process enables users to provide additional data to confirm the legitimacy of phone number changes. It's important to adhere to Google's phone number listing guidelines. You can find these guidelines here:support.google.com/business/answer/3038177.

About a couple days ago. I don’t know how to optimize it. But I’ll be watching your videos. What I’m taking is that I basically need to give it time. Hopefully I’ll pop in the results in the future. The only way I feel like I would pop up is by advertising.
