I'm here because I decided to start my first business optimizing GBPs for local businesses as a side hustle while working a full-time job supporting a wife and child, and disabled father. I have to say, so far your content has been some of the most well put together videos I've ever seen, not just as pertaining to the GBPs. I don't like the sheer number of extensions you've provided and recommended, but I have to say that an all in one solution would likely have a huge cost and a matching barrier to entry, so you've made this entire endeavor seem approachable to anyone willing to put in the work. Thanks!

HI Luc, my business provides on-site training in 3 provinces in Canada, this of course includes cities and towns, I suspect this feature is not recommended when using BL unless BL settings can be adjusted to reflect the search location (in this case provinces vs. cities).

You can definitely adjust the settings on the grid for example however, if you don't have a listing in the province you are targeting I doubt very much you will be ranking for any keywords.

I would think, and just my opinion of course, in a tourist area most people will be doing more "research" when determining where to go, where to stay, what to do, etc...vs someone looking for a "restaurant near me" while they are driving around. Maybe that's why?

I work from home so do not have a location listed in my profile, but now when I type my name into the Google Search bar it come up with my name, then Realtor and then Monmouth, OR which is incorrect. I am located in Salem, OR. How do I change this? Everything was fine with my location for a while and then all of a suddent it started showing as this. Frustrating.

Top notch! thank you. I need help: I created a GMB listing for a business but even before verification, Google suspended the profile for noncompliance.

Could that be a reason why the account was suspended?
