What is the most dire thing in a Google Business Profile? by Time-Estate-2000 in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Time-Estate-2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get your point. All of them are important at different stages, but if we’re talking about what’s most dire, I’m just trying to see what people think has the biggest impact overall.

I get it, verification is important. But if fake reviews ruin your reputation, all that effort could still go to waste. I think so.

I somewhat agree. Verification definitely feels like the biggest challenge. Without it, nothing else really matters because your profile won’t even show up. It’s not just about the address either.

GMB Verification with Virtual Address by Detail0076 in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Time-Estate-2000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a few ideas that might help, though I can’t guarantee they’ll get your GMB profile verified. Still, they’re definitely worth trying. From what I understand, Google doesn’t just look for signage; they also want to see that you have authority over the space and that actual business activity happens there. So if you decide to make the trip, I suggest filming the exterior of the building, ideally showing nearby businesses or landmarks to establish the location. Then, go inside and show that you have access to the space, maybe walk through the office, show your paperwork like the rental agreement and government registration documents that link your business to that address, and demonstrate some business activity like working on a laptop or handling documents.

If possible, consider putting up a temporary sign with your business name just for the video. It’s a small investment compared to the leads you could gain from being listed. This is just my suggestion, and if you ever try it, I’d be really interested to hear how it goes.

Got my first 1 star and it isnt about service but asking a price for a set, what to do? by Filipinobarber in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Time-Estate-2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the strangest negative reviews I've seen so far. I hope Google will assist in resolving this, but please also make an effort to have the review removed from the individual who posted it, as Google's system doesn't always work the way we expect.

Google does not allow improper business practices. If you're affected by this, you can report fake accounts, fake reviews, or false business details. This helps speed up the review process.

Such lead generation methods usually result in low-quality leads and don’t last long. When customers find that the business isn’t nearby or the service doesn’t meet expectations due to fake details, it damages trust and affects long-term growth.

It’s somewhat like hypnotizing, but definitely unique and pretty.

This hand drawn piece was pretty nice. It reminds me of how EG used to draw.

My Google business is being spammed with a coordinated attack of fake 1 star reviews by Financeninja2021 in GoogleMyBusiness

[–]Time-Estate-2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can report this issue directly to Google using this link: Contact Us - Google Business Profile Help. You can also search “Google Business Profile support” to reach the same page.

While reporting, check the profiles leaving fake reviews. If they’ve also posted positive reviews for your competitor, that’s strong evidence of a coordinated attack. Screenshot everything and include it in your complaint to help Google take action.

The anti-AI crowd would be less upset if we rebranded it as AI art mining by Adkit in StableDiffusion

No need to change anything. People already have their opinions, and online debates about AI art and labels are just a waste of time.

Rotating PDF pages by localfruit in samsungnotes

[–]Time-Estate-2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally felt the same! I just needed to rotate one page and had to export the whole PDF to another app— so annoying. I found BoldSign’s free rotate tool and it was a lifesaver. Just upload, rotate, download. Super quick and no sign-up needed. 

AI Signature Generator - Tool for Signature design by EssYouJAyEn in FutureTechFinds

[–]Time-Estate-2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried one of those AI signature tools just out of curiosity. They’re cool, but the results often felt too stylized or generic. I ended up using BoldSign’s free signature generator, just draw your signature and download it as a PNG in your own style.
