Hi luc, your videos are great. Helped a lot with my GMB. I would like to see a video on how we can rebrand the existing business on GMB. "Change in name" due to expansion or limiting to a specific expertise.
Thanks for your comment. I will add your request to my list
Thanks alot.. Will be following your series of so mch clear guidance for my new Solar business.
Thanks alot❤️
So nice of you, all the best Shavez
The main experience! Initially, companies are shown on Google maps that have been there for 10-30 years and often have profiles with very zero information!
Thanks for keeping it short and sweet. Would you recommend registering a business name with the state and opening a business checking account, prior to creating a GMB listing? If a legal brand contains the city name, would this prevent Google from suspending the account? I've always been a fan of providing Google with as much info as possible.
Many thanks Geoffrey. Google's guidelines are very clear. Your name should reflect your business’ real-world name, as used consistently on your storefront, website, stationery, and as known to customers. So if you register a business and the name includes your city name there is no risk of being suspended by Google as it will be a legitimate name. Hope this makes sense
your Videos has made me hit 90k views in one month thank you great job
How awesome! So please to hear that. Thanks dean
If you don't mind me asking how did his video give you 90k views please help me understand
I call bullshit this video did that lol
I never knew this was attainable until i watched your video.
Its been really helpful. Thanks alot
Glad to hear that
Thank you so much for the video, you helped me understand my marketing a lot better!
You're so welcome!
This was FANTASTIC. Thanks so much for making this so simple for users. 🙏🏼
You're so welcome!
Best video on GMB set up. I am having a problem with my listing saying it's only 80 percent done and to add a logo. I have reloaded the page , added, and removed the logo and everything else I could think of yet it still says to add a logo. When in the photos section my logo is showing. I'm at a loss and really hope to get an answer to this frustrating issue. Thanks for your time and keep up the amazing videos.
Hi Steve, thanks a lot. Stop banging your head against the wall 🤪😄. It's a bug. All profiles that are completed (including mine) display the 85% complete message with the logo issue. If you've already added your logo, you're all good.
Thank you. I always enjoy watching your videos. I have a delima. I created a new GMB page for a client that built a new website under a new domain. unbeknownst to me they had a GMB [unclaimed] that existed and is showing up attached to their new domain and website. My question is how do I remove the original GMB and replace it with the new GMB?
Absolutely enough content to understand google my business thank you very much.
Thanks Faraz
Can I use your videos for how to's for my clients?
Your presentations are professional, concise and spot on and I'd love to add them to a catalog I can refer privately.
Let me know what annotations I'd need, no problem!
Thanks
Hi Stephen. You can creae your own TH-cam playlist and send it to your client. You don't even need my authorisation
In my opinion put your own personality to it, it will resígnate with the following you already have
Thank you! I would have liked to see what the final result looks like (the whole page)
I'll bear that in mind for the 2022 edition
Thanks so much dude! You were SUPER helpful!
No Problem, Glad I could help Gina
Very genuine and energetic sincely
Many thanks Selemani
Hi, I've been following ur videos for a quite some time and they're awesome. Can you make a video on how to choose long tail phrases?
Thanks a lot arif. I’ve added your request to my list
Well done
@@rankingacademy you
Thanks for the video, Luc. Is there a way to add a second location to an already existing GMB page and would you recommend doing that or creating an entire separate GMB page for the new location?
Did you find out? I’m dealing with the same thing, I can’t get my post card with Id number mailed to the new address,
@@larrytate1657 Always create new listings for new addresses.
What a super teacher you are, fabulous video!
Thank you so much Linda
Thank you very much! Most informative. Great job!
You're very welcome! Thanks for your comment James
Hi, Luc. Thanks for the helpful video. I would like to get some advice from you.
1) I have a young Remodeling agency, but I don't have an office yet. I serve a location within a 20 km radius of where I live, which includes 10 small towns. In Google My Business, I listed my home address as my location. But I am extremely reluctant to list my residential address for this purpose. I would like to ask how much I would lose for local search if I don't put my address in Google My Business at all, just put "service area" for my business (10 cities).
2) I also have a website that lists my NAP. If I now remove my home address as my location, how do I then promote my website (SEO) by doing citations of my business in various directories without an address?
Hi There. Removing your address will not affect your rankings. Your business will simply be considered as a Service Area type of business. Google knows where you are already as you've alredy provided an address when claiming your listing.
Regarding your NAP, I wouldn't spend a huge amount of time claiming citations as they now play a minimal role in boosting your visibility. Instead I'd recommend you invest effort on link building which will yield much better returns.
@@rankingacademy Luс, thanks for replying. Good luck!)
Hi Luc great content again. I tried to remove my address from GMB so that I would just be listed as servicing an area but it now says I'm in Germany. Can you change once you've already chosen bricks and motor ? Hope this makes sense
Yes you can. You should just technically delete the address. Not sure why it says you're in Germany now
@@rankingacademy Hi Luc, thanks for the reply. Once I verified this was resolved. Thanks again
Excellent video, accurate and very professional!
Thanks a bunch Mark
One of the best information I have seen on TH-cam. Thanks
Many thanks Afro G
HI Luc, really loved this vid and it's helped me a lot. I have a quick question, is it possible to setup multiple businesses in Google Business?
Hi Nicki. Yes it is , as long as they're all legitimate.
@@rankingacademy thanks Luc, where do I find the option to do this in the Google business panel?
@@nickismith9796 Hi Nicki, just add the business via Google Maps , right click and then add business, follow the process there
How to prevent someone claiming my business , once a while I get email from GMB that someone requested Management of my business on GMB
You can't stop someone from requesting access, but that doesn't mean it will be granted unless you allow it
Thank you for the tutorial. Really help me a lot. Have a nice day!!
Many thanks Farha
Thank you, very helpful. Instead of asking my daughter to help, I can do this myself.

Thank you for your talented Tutorials; they helped me in implementing my hotel on GMB and benefit from all options available. But for some business search I see another display of GMB, listing the following components :
Stable release; Initial release; Original authors; Size ; Written in; License; Extension etc.
where I can find those components to fill? I can send example if you want
Hi Anne Marie. I have absolutely no idea what these are and never seen this on any listing before. Would be great if you could send me a screenshot
Thank you!
You're welcome!

Thank you so much for this video. I have a question. When we have a network restaurant and search on Google Maps we want all network addresses to appear on the map we need to add all the locations separately if there is any way to add them all together?
thank you very much
:))
If you have more than 9 locations You can bulk load and verify your listing all at once. For more information on how to do this check follow this link support.google.com/business/answer/3370250
Hello and thank you for the video.
May i ask you something: I'm making a website for my girlfriends begining dental practise. But she told me, that competitors write fake reviews on google, so she want to avoid this and doesn't want her dental practise information to show ot the right sidebar of google, where anyone could possible write a google review.
So, how to avoid this?
If i use Noindexing code on the website to avoid google bots crawling in it, can she still use google ads or no?
And can she still use google ads, without showing her business information on right sidebar of google?
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
You are welcome!
Wao... Super, thank you so much!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching

Luc, if I have two locations, do I need to create a completely second Google Business Profile, or is there a way to incorporate it under the main location? thanks
Hi Jeff. You need to create two Google Business Profiles. One for each location
Always great show and you do unique & valued analysis - God bless you
Much appreciated, thanks

Thank you for the video is well understanding but I have an issue where I’m to fill location if yes a walk in store and all I don’t have a store yet I work from home and make delivery through logistics company so I selected No and it ask me to select regions/area I serve customer I don’t know what to fill there cause I do nationwide delivery to everywhere
Base on what you are saying it seems you might not be eligible to create a listing. I would suggest you read the guidelines: support.google.com/business/answer/3038177?hl=en-GB#zippy=%2Celigible-businesses
Excellent. Job
Thank you very much!
If you're an agent/distirbutor of a BRAND, is it wrong to put the brand name? Whatw would be the best practice then?

Hi, I just started watching your videos. Awesome!!! I've learned a lot already. I have a question: I am an independent contract who works at a local business ( rent a booth). Now, I am going to start my own business. Is there a way for me to take all my personal reviews from under the previews business to my own business now?
Hi Jordania. Not entirely sure what you mean. Are you trying to migrate reviews from an existing Google listing to a new listing you are creating for your own business?
Hi jordania
Can you show my business in Google local listings
Thanks!
No problem!
