Great job, Nick! Local SEO can be underestimated so it's good seeing people thriving from doing it how it's supposed to be done. Looking foward on seeing your next work.
🚨 Alert for all Business Owners & Local SEO Experts!
Has your Google Business Profile (GBP) suddenly changed too?
Google has rolled out a major new update where it is now automatically updating Business Profile categories!
As you can clearly see in the attached image:
👉 Google has displayed a clear notification: "Your business category was updated by Google."
👉 In the comparison between Current and Previous categories, you can see how Google made backend changes to the profile.
If your business category gets incorrectly auto-updated, it can directly impact your local map rankings, organic visibility, and customer inquiries. From a Local SEO perspective, this is a critical issue!
What should you do right now?
Log in to your Google Business Profile dashboard immediately.
Verify your primary and secondary categories to ensure they are accurate.
If an unwanted automatic change occurred, immediately revert it back to your original category.
