I find ALL your videos incredibly helpful! Thank you for taking the time to produce them. I know that everybody who takes the time to watch them appreciates your effort!
You're information is awesome, thank you. I wanting to learn how to be a Googleap lead marketer and learn about SEO and paid ads when I have the finances to do so. The free sites you mention are very helpful.
I like your video very much always very educational and actionable. The tip about answer our own question as a small business , is that in agreement of Google my business guidelines? Thanks again.!!!👍👍👍👍
Many thanks Alex. Posting and answering questions yourself is NOT against Google's guideline and helpful to the users who can get the right answers about your business straight from your Google My business listing
@@rankingacademy , thanks for the ckarifications. I have seen the GMB comments in the search results , but did not know that q&a was also a ranking factor. Many thanks again !!
Great actionable insights, thanks! Quick question: Being based in Miami with 50%+ of the public speaking Spanish, do I need to run two separate GMB listings, or just do everything bilingual (e.g. the Q&A section)?
Google my business doesn't offer the ability to set up multiple languages and I wouldn't mix english and Spanish in your panel. Spanish people in your area have likely set up their browser preference to their native language which means your business will still show up in their results. I am not sure if Google will automatically translate the content. It's worth testing at your end (just switch your google preference to Spanish and you'll find out) Lastly, i hope your website is set up in both languages and you are using the hreflang tags
Hello Luc, my question about citation building. If you want to build structured citations Yelp, BBB, etc, and you are in a different country than that of your client, how can you do that wihout using brightlocal or whitespark? Thank you so much!
@@rankingacademy Hi Luc, I mean, if I want to build structured local citations by submitting my client's (who is in Arizona and I am from the Philippines),NAP to let's say BBB can I submit on her behalf even if I am from a different country? Thank you.
Hi Luc, this video is one of your best work, keep them coming, great info :) Would you do a video on how to have one business with 3 locations, I have a client who has 3 offices in 3 cities and I don't know if I should create 3 separate GMB account or there is a way to add 3 locations to that one business? Thank you
Hi Christian. Many thanks for your praises and thanks for the suggestion. To manage multiple locations with one single business you need to create 3 GMB profiles, one for each location. Each location must have a specific address and phone number. Create three separate pages on your site, one for each location. Make sure each page is populated with unique content related to that location (for more info on how to create unique location pages just watch my video: th-cam.com/video/ifTW1--Yj3Q/w-d-xo.html Then link each GMB profiles to each location respectively. Finally, treat each location page on your website as if they were your home page and start building links, citations etc...
Hello sir I might miss any videos u made but I want to know how to add groups in bussiness page not from personal page. Each time I try add a group in my bussiness page it's always add to my personal account
Hi, is it OK to have backlinks from press portals? Always unique content per backlink per portal, or that does not matter also, just avoid it in any case?
Hey Luke, ubersuggest has gotten a little intrusive lately. They ask for you to sign in with google, THEN they ask for permission to gain access to your Google Search Console. Why would I make a stranger a user on my google search console?? NOT!
Great information would you be able to put all SEO techniques in a course and update it every 3 months . Because as we know Google changes algorithms always That will be great for your viewers to learn and for you to receive passive income .
Ranking Academy great please use the checklist method when you putting the course together. For example ( auditing checklist and solution checklist) in this way you will make it very simple for the students and for your self. Thank you again
You can find the links in the description.Go to the video then scroll down a little where you see the description of the video. There is an option - "SEE MORE". Click on the option and you will find all the links that Mr. Durand has provided.
My app is still in BETA. But, the premise it will promote eateries worldwide well 145 countries. So its not LOCAL. What do u suggest I do. Its still 6 weeks from launch. So, this is me just doing prep work.
Review may not help Google rank you higher. But it does help your clients to know you more. I saw so many 1 or 2 stars review ranks higher than those 5 stars
Reviews do help rank higher. Star rating, keywords in reviews and velocity are all contributing factors. I doubt very much that 1 and 2 star reviews would perform better than 5 stars. There are many other contributing factors that would influence visibility overall
Incognito is not a "hack", use a location changer and you can get the exact results from anywhere in the world OR use the adwords preview tool to render geo specific results. Also you can sign up for geomapy and track all of your GMB results based on individual zip codes.
I have seen dozens of cases that have no website and no content in google maps either and rank first just because of keyword stuffing in google Maps name. It has increased significantly nowadays so the famous companies who actually have a name are losing ranking significantly! Very cheap system
I agree with you and if you are facing issues with your own business and unscrupulous competitors who are keyword stuffing their business names I suggest you report them to google. Watch this if you want to know how th-cam.com/video/G3hUAcAebMk/w-d-xo.html
@@rankingacademy great thanks a lot. I have already done that. But still, I do not think that the ranking criteria for maps are at all as good as the ones that come after. You can make a domain name best math tutor and rank the highest in maps without a real domain and just one phone number. Then you have companies who have been in this business for years and they rank lower with rich websites and reputations. Our google business has 61 genuine reviews and we were the ones started reviews in this business in Vancouver but it is very difficult to rank in maps.

Adding keywords to your post will not affect rankings. Integrate them to your website instead

What about using Quora? How can I use it to rank higher? Thanks
You don't use quora to rank higher but more to contribute to a community who hopefully will discover who you are
I tried using brightlocal, but it does not have an option for India. Only 4 countries are listed in the dropdown menu. What can I do to track NAP?
Whitespark.ca does the same thing and covers India whitespark.ca/local-citation-finder/

Hi, is it OK to have backlinks from press portals? Always unique content per backlink per portal, or that does not matter also, just avoid it in any case?
What do you call a press portal exactly? The rule of thumb is this: The easier it is to get a link, the less value it has.
Bonjour, y a t il l'équivalent de BRIGHTLOCAL pour la France? ça ne semble pas fonctionner hors pays anglophone..... merci!
Malheuruesement non.
Hey Luke, ubersuggest has gotten a little intrusive lately. They ask for you to sign in with google, THEN they ask for permission to gain access to your Google Search Console. Why would I make a stranger a user on my google search console?? NOT!
I know. They've even started to monetise the platform now. To be honest it was predictable. Still a very decent tool though
@@rankingacademy I don't care about monetizing- but letting a stranger have user privileges to your search console? Not good.
