why does the link to schedule a call say "only available to UK business owners"?
@ignite-localАй бұрын
@AndrusBuildz because we're based in the UK and the Google Business Profiel UI differs across different countries (especially if you're US based. The US gets new features before the UK). So we can't be certain we're advising best practices for that specific country. Plus, the demand has been so high...we were struggling to keep up when we had it open to anyone, regardless of their location. Where are you based?

Thank you very much. Regarding the home page of the website, do we target one keyword or all the keywords that I want to rank for?
@ignite-local4 ай бұрын
All keywords on your home page and the you should have individual pages for targeting single keywords or closely related keywords (like a specific service / location). On your home page, you should do things like; including all of your GBP categories (primary and secondary) in your page title, H1, H2, H3 etc and in the text of your page. If you align your page as closely as you can to the content on your GBP, it'll really help.

@ignite-local4 ай бұрын
Hi @omarsameh5622. This happens quite a lot. As well as all the features in your Google Business Profile, Google also looks at your website when determining where you should rank in searches. This includes; keywords in the website page page linked from your Google business Profile, keywords in H1, H2 and H3 headings on your website, internal linking on your website and a whole range of other things. WhiteSpark compiled a list of 149 Google Business Profile Ranking factors and it includes factors both within your profile and on your website. The list can be found here: whitespark.ca/local-search-ranking-factors#pack-finder In response to your question about your homepage...Reverting it back should mean your rankings go back to where they were. The alternative you have is to further develop your new homepage and include everything that Google requires to get better rankings. This will take a bit of time, but done correctly, it could result in better rankings than you had with your original homepage.

HI, if we turn off the business location address because its a service based business, does that mean we would no longer be visible on Google maps? This would not be great would it? How can we get around this?
@ignite-local4 ай бұрын
Hi @StevenWongswfitness - If you hide/turn off your address, you'll still appear on Google Maps. Your rankings might take a bit of a hit to start with, but it usually recovers over time. If you're a service based business, then you shouldn't have your address showing. So, I'd always recommend you do things the correct way (in this case remove your street address) so you minimise your chances of getting a profile suspension. Once you have removed your address, just focus on all the other things that will help you to get more exposure (reviews, regularly adding photos, videos, Google Posts etc).

@@omarsameh5622 Google won't suspend you, if you add accurate information. However, they might ask you to re-verify your profile. You might take a bit of a hit on your rankings. They may go down for a while....businesses with a physical address do often get an unfair advantage, when it comes to rankings. Just watch our videos 😀and focus on the things that'll help you to rank well and get more success from your profile.

So as a service based company (me), I noticed that my main competition also use their home address. Does this mean they have an unfair advantage over me, and I'm wasting money on Google ads? I'm not exaggerating
@ignite-local2 ай бұрын
Hi @noahadim. Yes they do have an unfair advantage. But, if they don't have a physical location (like a shop or an office) then they're breaking Google's rules. You can report this by searching for their profile. You'll see a link that says 'suggest an edit' and you can select 'Close or remove' and then choose the 'Doesn't exist here' option. Google may or may not accept your change and update their profile. However, if you ask 3 or 4 other people to also report the business to Google for exactly the same reason, then Google are way more likely to pay attention to this and take action. Hope this helps!
