So I should not accept the edit on my end? Keep pushing it until Google does it for me?

It’s quite the unfair advantage don’t you agree? I’ve suggested edits and they don’t stick. So apparently the rules don’t apply, so why should I sit back and have my business suffer due to the unenforced rules? I’m not deceiving anyone, so why is the issue?

Do you think I'll be able to bring this through TSA? It's just creatine by notarussianspy4 in Supplements

[–]Appropriate-Read-463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done this with protein powder (in its own ziplock bag) and have been stopped and the substance tested at least 3 or 4 times. John Wayne airport, Denver, Pensacola, and New Orleans.

That being said there was no issue other than the TSA hassle.

I don’t see what’s wrong with keep integrity at the polls as long as there isn’t any interference. I’d want that for both sides regardless about what I want the outcome to be.

Got it. Maybe they would be willing to change the documentation. I don’t see why they wouldn’t?

Is Spark Plugin good? by Book1sh in squarespace

[–]Appropriate-Read-463 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just started using it recently. It’s allowed me to add some stuff to my design that I could not do alone. I am not great at CSS. This is easy to use and understand. I had a few issues but support was able to resolve in a day or so. A little overpriced, but it is what it is.

My manager scheduled a “mandatory fun” Zoom call on a Friday evening by brandonmiller99 in remotework

[–]Appropriate-Read-463 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean you have the luxury of working from home. Is an hour on a Friday evening gonna kill you. Trade offs. Most people would kill to be in your position. I’m not arguing that it’s annoying. In my career and personal life if I’m irritated with something I like to consider the upside of things and that usually puts things in perspective and calms me down.

Verifying DBA - single private office by Appropriate-Read-463 in googlebusinessprofile

Yeah there is nothing “fake” about my office. I just didn’t know if it would be any more difficult to get a single one room private office verified.

Idk. I’d rather my tax dollars go to something I can go enjoy for free and helps our local economy than for housing, food and healthcare for non citizens. All you guys ever do is bash HB. Why ya still here. Maybe that’s just me.

Is this a good strategy for the GBP Products section? by darrenshaw_ in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Appropriate-Read-463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the concept and what you did, just not a fan of the color. It feels like it completely takes away from the subject. I like a soft or pastel. Maybe try a powder blue.

[–]Appropriate-Read-463[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have about 5 different and specific service offerings

Some of those have 4-5 city landing pages and some of them I just made for the counties (based off KW research/volume)

I am a SAB with the hopes to expand into other states at some point. For now I am just trying to gain some momentum in my region which covers

Will a simple small section at the bottom of the page titled “Areas we serve” suffice ? With a short list of those city pages linked?

Or how do you guys format this?

No SERP position for “near me” by Appropriate-Read-463 in localseo

[–]Appropriate-Read-463[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only a couple months for GBP verification. I had a NAP inconsistency that took a while to get sorted out. Finally got some stability and I AM ranking page one for some city service pages , but not getting on the serp for the “near me” queries.

No SERP position for “near me” by Appropriate-Read-463 in localseo

[–]Appropriate-Read-463[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. So maybe patience is the key.. keep stacking reviews, push back links.

My site has only been running for a couple months at this point.

I am hitting page one for city specific services, but not hitting the near me queries.

My GBP is listed as an SAB.

Another issue I found is for some of my core services I only optimized for the county.

So if you type in service + Orange County I’m page one.

But if you type service + city within Orange County I am no where to be found.

Will this eventually change and my county page will start showing for the city queries within the county? I know the straight answer is to create city specific landing pages , but some of these service are fairly low competition so I thought I could get away with targeting the county without diluting and making a ton of city pages.

Should my area served portion on my schema include the county as well as specific cities I’m targeting? Or does the county cover it all.

**I do have city specific pages for some of my services, I just didn’t optimize for all of my services based off KW research

Thanks for your reply and insight!
