          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).

                              Fighting spam on Google Maps

                              "Suggest an edit" on Google Maps works occasionally and so does Google's Redressal Form. Sending a DM to @GoogleMyBiz on Twitter does too. But it seems like the vast majority of spammy businesses that I report, go unnoticed by Google. I'd really appreciate hearing from some other SEOs on how they remove crap from the map, with better results. Thanks.

                              Google My Business: Company listing is showing in search instead of division address - similar names/same city

                              Hi! I have a client whose company name is very similar to one if their company divisions. This division has multiple locations but its main location is in the same city as the parent company. The problem is that when you search for the division, the parent company shows up. The parent company has a physical address, but most users searching need to be going to the division address which takes customers. They are having problems with customers coming to the parent company address instead. I have made the Google My Business parent company page to show service areas instead of their business address. Yet, their listing still comes up first when searching for the division location. This is because of part of the parent company name is in the division name. My client wants users to be able to find the division more so than the parent company. Anyone had this issue before? Any tips would be great!

                              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!

                              "Suggest an Edit" feature of Google My Business is allowing the competitors to change your business details, that too without your prior permission! I have put together a piece on the issue we faced and you can review the same here: https://www.kvrwebtech.com/blog/issue-in-suggest-an-edit-in-google-my-business-is-it-a-bug-or-a-major-pitfall/ What are your thoughts on the same and what should be the right solution?

                              How to change your location for local search results?

                              Hi Everybody Back in december 2015 I came across this article https://gofishdigital.com/google-results-change-location/  explaining how to change location for local search results using the google emulation tool by setting up new coordinates. 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

                              Local citations from business directories in other countries

                              Hi all, I normally work for clients in my home county (The Netherlands) and with local citation building I focus on Dutch websites or well know .com websites in the Netherlands. My rule of thumb kinda was, if it’s not known in the Netherlands it isn’t worth getting mentioned there. Since The Netherlands are pretty small and I think Google ain’t perfect I was wondering if it makes sense to list a Dutch business on any .com business listings that are internationally big, but aren’t well known in the Netherlands. Two reasons that got me thinking this direction: A big well known Dutch company offers a service such as Moz local and did integrate their service with several international business listing websites that I never heard off, since these business directories focus themselves on other parts of the world. Google ain’t perfect and I think they got more budget to identify trustworthy business directories with an international focus or a focus on America then with a focus on The Netherlands. So I’m wondering if it makes any sense to list a Dutch business on let’s say the top 20 international business directories (although these directories don’t have any brand recognition in The Netherlands).

                              Should my website link to my google business listing given that I already link from google business to my website ?

                              I have a website with individual Location Landing Pages for each of my Depots.  I also have individual Google Local Business Listings for each of my depots. Should I have a link from my Website Location Landing Pages to the associated Google local Business listings or not ?... Given that I already have a link on my Google Business listing to the relevant Location Page on my website. I wasn't sure whether linking both ways would be more beneficial thus enforcing things better or whether it's not needed to link both ways . thanks Pete
