          Hi Moz community,

          I hope everyone is well. I would like to ask for your advice on how to show a Google Business listing in both the UK and US for our brand. I understand that you can add multiple locations to your Google listing under the 'Manage Locations' tab but I wasn't quite sure how it worked in practice.  I have a couple of questions below:

          If we have 2 registered locations/offices (one in the UK and one in the US) are we able to create 2 separate locations that will show our business listing correctly in the right-hand margin when people search for our brand in the US and UK respectively?

          If so, when a user finds our business listing in the US, are we able to serve them our US website version when they click the 'Website' button, as opposed to showing them our UK website?  Our US website has been created as a sub-directory from our main UK site and can be seen as: www.example.com/us/

          I hope someone is able to help, and thank you in advance.
          Katarina

                    Adding multiple country locations for Google Business Listings allows businesses to expand their online presence and reach customers in different regions. This feature enables businesses to create and manage separate listings for each location, providing essential information such as address, contact details, and operating hours tailored to each specific area. This helps improve local search visibility, making it easier for potential customers to find and engage with the business, regardless of their geographical location.(Project manager jobs)(PMP Exam Prep)( study abroad)

                      To add multiple country locations for Google Business Listings, follow these steps: (study abroad)

                      Sign in to your Google My Business account.

                      Click on the location you want to add a country to or create a new location if needed.

                      In the location dashboard, click on "Info" in the left-hand menu.

                      In the "Address" section, add the primary address for that location.

                      Scroll down to the "Service areas" section and click on "Add service area."

                      (Hospital Management Courses In Canada For International Students)
                      Enter the additional countries or regions you want to include in the service area for that location. You can add multiple countries or specific areas within those countries.

                      Click "Save" to confirm the changes.

                      Repeat these steps for each location you want to add multiple country locations to within your Google My Business account. This allows you to manage listings for multiple locations in different countries under one account. ([Canada PR]

                        @RossKernez, what if you don't have a regionalised domain name?
                        Can you use the same website for both location listings?

                        We have physical offices in the UK and in NZ and want to create a Google Business Listing for each.

                          Hi Ross,

                          Thank you for confirming this - I was hoping this would be the case. I appreciate the help!

                          Many thanks,

                            Hi Katarina,

                            You need to set up two GMB locations. One location has to be in the USA and another one has to be in the UK. Also, you have to have a physical location in both countries in order to receive the postcards from Google and verify your listings.

                            You can add www.example.com/us/ version of the site to the "website field "in the GMB, and you add a regular version of the site to another GMB( UK Version).

                              How do you fix a Google My Business Location Issue if the road doesn't yet exist on Google Maps?

                              My core question is just: How do you fix a Google My Business Location Issue if the road doesn't yet exist on Google Maps? Do I have any other options other than to just wait on Google to catch up with reality? Here's the background: I work for a hospital. We just opened a clinic on a street that is real and has a U.S. Postal Address, but Google Maps doesn't recognize it, and redirects people to a house . This is our postal address: 8343 S 168th Ave Omaha NE 68136-1677 If a patient enters the following into google maps, 8343 S 168th Ave, the location the map autofills the wrong zip code, and sends them to a home that is on S 168th Ave. (where in theory a home would exist if it had that home number). The road does exist in that portion of town. If a patient enters 8343 S 168th Ave, Omaha NE 68136, google maps takes you to the correct location, but it automatically changes Ave to St. The verified Google My Business listing also lists it as Street, even though on the back end I've put in the word Avenue, and it shows up in the right place. If however someone just searches by name "Chalco Clinic" the right Google My Business comes up. This is the Google My Business page I'm referring to: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Nebraska+Medicine+-+Chalco/@41.1754796,-96.1787153,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf77aefb4e27f865!8m2!3d41.1754796!4d-96.1787153 And even though it says it's on a Street, on the back end of the claimed listing I've used "Avenue". In case it matters, this is the landing page for the location: https://www.nebraskamed.com/chalco

                              Improve Google Business ranking

                              While my client's websites have been ranking well in SERP for their keyterms I'm at a lost on what I can do to improve their Google business/map presence. I'm referring to their listing where the top three come up or when you search on Google Maps.
                              https://gyazo.com/26ec78ed7f712157ec72492199545431 Ex 1. Several months ago my client was ranked #1 both for SERP and maps until they dropped to 2nd on maps. Now they're ranked 1st in search yet 2nd for local business rankings as you can see from the screenshot above. At one point my client's business did have more reviews than the 1st ranking business yet they still weren't 1st. Ex. 2. Client(s) is ranked 4th in search and doesn't show in the top 3 map listings for their search term. If you click on More places to view Google Maps they're listed all the way down as the 15th listing or worse can't even be found when searching by their main SEO key term . Of course they are found by searching for their business name so it's not like there is a problem with the listing. I make sure to: Completely fill out their Google Business profile(NAP, hours and add pictures) Have my client try to gain positive reviews Manage and respond to reviews(mainly the negative ones) Add map and Google business link to their website Can anyone offer any other insight on what else can be done to improve their local presence on maps that I might be missing?

                              Why would a website link disappear from a Google Place listing?

                              Hi, a local non-profit recently re-branded their name from MacDonald Center to Maybelle Center. When they updated their business information their website link disappeared. They've updated from within and dashboard to no avail. We've requested edits/updates via Google Map maker but it says Denied. Here's a URL for the SERP result. Note the button for "website" would normally appear by the button for "directions" https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome-psyapi2&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8&q=maybelle center portland&oq=maybelle center portland&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i59j69i61.4316j0j7 Can someone please explain why this is happening and how we can fix it? They are a great community organization who's about to receive some media coverage and we'd really appreciate it if users hearing about the group be able to easily access their new website. They are aware of their duplicate listings but, typical of non-profits, have limited time and funds so are prioritizing to address more urgent issues first. However, I don't believe duplicate listings would cause such an issue but please let me know if I'm wrong here

This was also picked up by mikeblumenthals' blog as being one of the best way of doing this. I tried it at the time and it worked very well. I tried using it last week and again this week but my location no longer seems to update. I have tried it on fifferent computers located in different locations and still it doesn't work. Does anyone know if this feature is no longer available and if not what else they'd recommend to verify local search results. Thanks

                              Google My Business for a Multi-Business Showroom

                              We are considering signing up for a multi-business showroom co-op concept in our area.  Basically this space (1 address) has 10+ businesses that have their products represented at the location.  There is one person working that passes along the leads to the individual companies when someone visits the showroom and shows interest in a product.  I know at least 5 of the  businesses are using this address for a Google My Business profile, and we would like to also.  I am looking for some advice on best practices and strategy to ensure were not violating any of Google's policies.  Here is a link to the showroom:  http://www.brookfieldhomeandideacenter.com/

                              Is there a purpose to the "google my business" description?

                              Hi there Can someone tell me if the description serves a purpose in the google my business profile since:
                              a) It is not displayed anywhere as far as i have seen (maps, 3 pack local results, knowledge graph, organic results)
                              b) It is no longer considered as a ranking factor since it was abused so much Thanks

                              Removing Unverified Listing From Google

                              We have an old unverified listing that has our information on it, but we can't get it off google. I told them months ago it was closed, and it is marked as closed in Google...but it still shows up. Moz Local is telling me this is an inconsistency that hurts our local rankings. I went to delete the page from our Google Business/Place, but if I did that, the warning said that I would just not have access to the page, and that the listing would still show up on google. How do I permanently get rid of those thing, so it's not longer an inconsistent listing? Ruben

                              Benefits of a verified listing vs. unverified

                              Is there any additional benefit to claiming a business listing other than locking it from being edited? It would seem to me that as long as the business information is consistent and crawlable, the SEO value would be the same right?
