[@tombnguyen]

Awesome tutorial. I followed the whole thing. When I duplicated the location query table and changed the city, both tables' data changed. It did the same thing in your video at 13:12, too.

[@tombnguyen]

I figured it out. In order to have your tables showing data from different queries, you have to create a new filter, then add your city.

[@rankingacademy]

Hi Tom. To fix this issue, instead of modifying the filter, delete it and recreate a new one. That will do the trick

[@tombnguyen]

Do you happen to have a similar video for working out which area and keywords to target for a brand new website for a gardener who offers a big range of services within a 50km radius of where he is located. He works out of a yard in Southern Spain that he does not allow clients to visit and has a mix of clients who speak Spanish and English. Sorry long question I know :)

When you say add pages does this also include blog posts? I use wix. Would it be best to try to add a new page or blog post or are they simply the same? Thanks for the great content!

[@rankingacademy]

They are very different. If you are trying to sell a service or product you provide you should create a page for it. If you are talking about what's new in your area or an how to guide it should be a blog page instead

many Thanks. Sir if we mention all zip codes of a city in the Service areas in GMB then my question is when we create citations then which one zip code we should mention there in Citations? Should we only mention Main City Zip code in Citations?

[@rankingacademy]

You should only have one option for a zip code with most citations so pick the one that makes most sense

[@expressmarblegranite4455]

HI Luc thank you for the video I tried your method in GMB insights. When I clicked on how customers search for your business the circular graph showing how many customers search for your you directly, by brand and by subject. On your video to the right side is the key words searched. My insight does not. I look for a way to customize insight to look like yours but i am unsuccessful. Any thoughts on what i am doing wrong

[@rankingacademy]

Hi There. You can't customize the insight report. If you can't see what I see it means it is unavailable to you I'm afraid

[@Nine-kf7ez]

Thanks for nice video, I have a question plz, most of products in my website have almost the same name, by example birthday paper cup and I think this rate my site very low, do I need to rename all products with different title and does Google will assess my site again and give me better rate? What do you suggest plz

[@rankingacademy]

You need to find out what keywords people are searching for and optimised your site accordingly

[@rayntourism8145]

dear sir , kindly suggest me is html website or word press is more appropriate for more visibility in google

Overall, It doesn't matter but. I personally find it easier to work with WordPress
