Bro, my primary category, like Game Developer, Game Development, or Game Publisher, is not in the list. What should I do?
They dont answer i cant even sign in in my google account
Thanks for making the internet worse
I don't disagree
banger
Appreciate it! Thanks for making an excellent product, and I encourage everyone to check it out!
Truly good job!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
how to contribute to the deterioration of the internet:
Yeah, I totally get that perspective actually
I added all my products, then created a business merchant and they all disappeared from my profile 🥲. How can I fix this please?
How do they manage to produce that link?
Very helpful information. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you sir!
Awesome! You're most welcome!
Better options for deleting photos through the Google Maps mobile app. Don’t click on the photos on the Google Business Profile home page - they only give you "Report this photo" option, instead click on Photos from the Menu under the home page photos and click on the three dots top right where you will get a "Delete this photo" option.
Can one get suspended for changing or updating their website this way?
Hopefully not! In a perfect world, updating your correct website link will not cause any issue. However, Google can behave in strange ways sometimes as a heads-up. I have heard of Google Business Profiles being suspended after someone simply posts a Google Post. Usually, if a suspension happens in error like this, Google will review it and unsuspend the profile within a couple days.
you left out an impt point- it appears you have to be a paying canva pro to resize things
Thanks for pointing that out. This may be a pro feature, I am not sure. I do personally have the paid version.
hi, my add update feature is not working. where do i get the feature
Have you verified your profile? Usually Google restricts features until the profile is verified.
Good video, easy to understand content.
Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment! I’m glad you found it helpful!
I miss the old keegan
I totally get that, Darius, I am trying out some new tools and content types to get traction for my longer-form videos. But these new shorts have been very different. I'm seeing what connects the best and hopefully get to the right place with the type of videos I am making.
@@KeeganEdwards I was just kidding. My bad. you're doing great homie!
@@DariusVenerial You da best!
Sir, business name write . But business address no. Generate review link no show it sir. What to do sir.
I miss the old Keegan where he was moist and has shaving cuts. At least we are back to having the audio cut out too early.
THEY DO NOT ANSWER THE EMAILS!!!
I know, it's super frustrating. You'd think a multi-trillion dollar company could have some decent customer service. What's the issue you're having? I'll try to point you in the right direction if I can.
@@KeeganEdwards Thanks for taking interest! I have a physical location- voice lessons out of my home studio. I was only offered verification through video and submitted two with all of Google criteria. Now I have no ways of verifications. I've contacted with multiple Emails and posted twice in communities. no human has helped, but I was sent a few 'How did we do?' emails
@@stavgerman Gosh very odd!! how long has it been since you submitted the video verifications?
@@KeeganEdwards about a month. will it help to delete that business from my profile and open a new one? I'm completely stuck
Thank you for your video, I have been trying to do this since yesterday.
I'm glad it worked out for you!
I am panicking. This is horrible. I have a real business seeing patients face to face, and they won’t put my Google business profile up!
I get that. Here try and contact Google Support: ua-cam.com/video/zpTNVdqhO0k/v-deo.html Let me know if you can't get an answer.
The user vs business owner login hacked worked! Do you have any idea what error could be going on within my Google Business Profile if I'm unable to upload from there?
Awesome! I am so glad to hear that hack worked! Honestly, I wonder why Google is doing that to you from your business owner login. GBP Manager can have some strange behaviors sometimes. See if it persists by trying again in a month or two. I'll let you know if I come across anything in the meantime that might be the reason why.
I had same issue but thomethics helped me it can be so frustrated but thomethics will fix it for you he is a verified Meta agent

Thank you... your instructions worked perfectly~! 👊🔥
So glad to hear it! Have an awesome day! 👊
Music too loud and crap
Appreciate it! I think the music volume is better in more current videos!
Sorry about that!
It's a nice video but you send the email and you get the same response again and again that's irrelevant but you still cannot contact Google
Argghhh Google! Unfortunately that can be the case! 😕 Have you tried writing in the support threads and see if you can get a response from the community for your issue?
Oh my goodness, I know you did this a year ago, but you help tremendously! Thank you!
I'm so glad to hear it! 😊 Thanks for leaving such a nice comment. You are most welcome!
Why i could NOT change my business name with a spelling error? every time i need to wait 10 mins to modify it and rejected all my requests

What’s the best way to have a website?
Hey Darius, Great question. There are so many solutions to choose from. But, I think specific platforms are best depending on the business's goals. My thoughts on the best solutions based on goals and technical ability: Any type of e-commerce business: Shopify (may want to hire a Shopify Expert) Small local service businesses like Handyman or House Cleaners that want a basic, easy website: Mighty Sites A business that wants to build a beautiful-looking website by themselves that is more robust: Wix or Squarespace For a business that wants a professional and robust website built and managed for them, WordPress using a trusted agency - I recommend Freshy Sites. Or WebFlow. *If you are doing any type of online transactions, though, I would still say Shopify over WordPress. Small Local business that wants a basic, professional Informational Website that they don't need to make changes to often and save some money: Mighty Local For a very large business: Magento, NetSuite, Shopify Plus. These are all more enterprise options and cost a lot more but have a ton of features for huge businesses. Have you tried any of these? What type of business and/or what's the goal for your website?
Can we add an additional website to my buisness profile??
Just one
This feature has been discontinued "As of July 31, 2024, the chat feature is no longer available in your Business Profile. Customers are still able to find and contact your business through Google Search and Maps"
in my google profile msg option not shows how to resolve ?
Google is winding down this feature unfortunately. developers.google.com/business-communications/business-messages/resources/release-notes/update-on-gbm
What if mine does not say "messages"?
I think because Google plans to wind this down: developers.google.com/business-communications/business-messages/resources/release-notes/update-on-gbm
it looks like AI is used in this video, his mouth moves weird
It's just because I recorded it on Zoom on my computer. There was a lag in the Zoom recording. Sorry about that, I hope it didn't interfere with the content too much.
How about covering actual POS systems, instead of merchant systems with POS capabilities?
Do you have an example of the kind of POS systems you'd like me to review? Happy to do another video with a different scope. Thanks

Thank you, Keegan. This was super helpful. I am taking the plunge and the info you've provided will help me get started!
I'm so glad, Wendy! Wishing you all the best!
So it's all about money.
To me it's all about protecting users security and data from hackers

Thank you very much Keegan. This is awesome.
You're so welcome! Glad you found it helpful.
I am having an issue where my photos and reviews are being uploaded but they do not show up on my profile when someone else tries to view them. They are also not showing up on the business where i left the reviews.
They're on Instagram 🧏❤
Hi brother ,are your citations tool useful for GCC countries like UAE. bcz am working for that country and i would like to know how can my service based business can reach to more customers outer than our location because we service all around UAE.could you help me with this??
Hi, my friend. When you try the citations tool, it should tell you which business directories BrightLocal has access to claim on your behalf. It will show you this before you are prompted to pay for the service. I would take a look at those directories and see if they are relevant to your country. It definitely won't hurt anything and can only help. But you might want to make sure the directories you see are relevant. For your other question about having your service-based business reach more people around the UAE, I suggest doing Google search ads and running those ads all around the UAE. Google shows localized results by default, but ads are the best way to start reaching people farther from your business. You can also check out a specific type of ad called Local Service Ads and see if you qualify for those as well. Those place your business at the top of Google Maps results, but you have to pay for the clicks and only certain types of businesses qualify. I hope this helps! Best, Keegan
I can't find my google profile (adress) on Instagram search.. please help
Do not use Mighty Sites people! Bad service. I set up a website over 2 weeks ago. To.this day they have not set up the SSL certificate for my website. Mind you I am on a paid subscription! I send an email and have not received a reply. Just bad service!!
My photo uploaded but no view
Are you able to see it?
Will I lose my reviews with a name change? We are a service area business with no physical address.
I don't think so, but it always helps to contact Google Support and get it in writing from Google first if its a concern.
How can you move your products around so certain ones show up first versus the products that aren’t as important?
Hi Keegan, What's your best contact method? Keen to touch base with you.
Hey Ian, happy to connect but can you give me a little context first, then I can share the best method to connect. Thanks my friend!
@@KeeganEdwards Keen to discuss partnership opportunities - I work for one of the brands you mention in the video.
Awesome man
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!
This is so dystopic
lol
somehow Google placed a third party provider link in our "book now" link that has nothing to do with our company. I have been trying for months to get it removed. I marked my correct link as preferred and still the button takes you to the bogus link. Google has been terrible with assisting. They said the third party has to remove it. So my company is held hostage by some google generated book now link costing me thousands of dollars. Google wont even let me remove the book now button. Again they said that the third party provider has to delete it. Google allows rogue businesses to trump the business owners wishes. What a terrible concept Google.
