Why should Google be avoided for business critical solutions?
Hi. Yes, you'll need to wait for 30 days until the suspension is lifted. It may take up to three weeks after the suspension is lifted to start seeing the profile appear on the prolist again.
Agreed. Me either!!
Wondering why your LSA lead phone numbers are suddenly blocked out? Youβre not alone!
Google is doing it to experiment and track how often users click to access the potential customerβs phone number to get more insight into how many leads are used by providers.
What do you think about this change?

This new form is interesting. Iβm curious to see what happens when a business is reported for having pressured a customer to leave a review.
A significant change to Google's Business Profile Guidelines!
Businesses selling products/services with minimum age requirements (e.g. alcohol, cannabis) MUST have a storefront.
No more restricted product SABs.

Agreed!! I admire the brilliance that is put together in these campaigns and the landing page setups too!!
I agree. I also think that an SEO expert understands keywords. Where a website ranks well organically and what keywords are challenging. So thereβs not much of a waste in ad spend with an optimized campaign.
A Google ad campaign actually enhances SEO. Iβve seen the data and itβs super cool! I do think long tail keywords will play more of a role in organic that ads hasnβt reached yet.
βLSA are taking up more space at the top of the serps AND in the Local Pack.β

Ha! Seems to be the approach these days.
Has anyone else noticed that LSA now lacks the green checkmark? π€ Also, the ProList has shifted from saying βGoogle Guaranteedβ to just βSponsor.β Is this a sign of changes? Curious to hear your thoughts!
