          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 I rank for a different business categories on google local?

                              Hello, How do I appear on the local listings for google in different categories or services that I offer? For instance, we're a physical therapy clinic by trade but we specialize in orthopedics, sports medicine, and lower back pain. Thus, how do I rank on google local for these types of services? Currently, we rank for physical therapy but we also miss out on a big part of our business by not ranking for these listings on local. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Scott

                              Can I use the same interior photos for multiple stores in Google My Business?

                              Hi, The company I work for has many store locations across the country. Getting good/quality interior pictures has become very difficult for us. We recently good a Virtual Tour from Google for one of the locations, and they took some really pictures. According to Google, the "Photos should represent the actual business" and "Represent the real-world business location". My question is: since our stores are VERY similar in the interior, can we use the same pictures for them while we get more pictures? Would Google penalize this? Thanks!

                              Local SEO business name issue due to aggregator

                              So I work for a college and we have multiple locations. My tactic has been always to keep the name the same for all of them (no city name), and then change the address and phone number for each. But there is 1000s of college listings websites out there that aggregate college and school data from the same source: the US government. Now the way that they have most, if not all, multi-location colleges listed is: "college name-city name". I can see the value in that, but I guess I'm just wondering what to do since it obviously can't be changed. Should I revert all of our listings as "college name-city name" to match the 1000s of listings that have it that way? I've been under the impression that I should leave the city/town name out of the name, but I'm just wondering what you think best practices would be? Thanks

                              Hello, I have number of websites in different locations with different business name and address with verified listings. However, I am thinking to use the same phone number on all the websites as it is difficult for me to keep track of all the numbers. So, is it okay to use the same phone number on different websites with different business name and address? Waiting for your thoughts. Brian

                              NPA. Adding two new locations. What phone numbers to use?

                              Hi everyone, Our client wants to add two new locations. Not sure what phone number to use.
                              We have main phone 800 number, with no adders associated, and local phone numbers for locations which we do SEO for. New two locations are not for SEO purposes. Client just want them to be listed on website and on major directories for now. Understanding NPA importance:
                              Should we use main 800 for both locations? 
                              Should we get new phone numbers for each one? Thanks

                              Wrong Category Displaying Google Business Page?

                              Our firm keeps displaying "bankruptcy attorney" on google business page. Granted, we do that, as well as a variety of other services, but our primary category is "Personal Injury Attorney". I was told the categories are randomly selected, but I don't think that's true. Every time I've looked (or had other people look for us) on local, it displays as "bankruptcy attorney." What should I do? Is there a way to lock in the "Personal Injury Attorney" category, so it's the one that displays? Should I get rid of all the other categories except for "personal injury attorney?" Any other suggestion? Thanks, Ruben
