Neither phone verification, nor texting, nor postcard is available anymore to become verified, only business video verification in the united states, you video shows that you are not in the US, and their cam software sucks, you cant zoom in or it gets really blurry, the secret here is to add your business through google maps FIRST, then it will give you the authority to add the business

Wrong! Google still gives the option to verify a listing through different methods. Although video verification has become the default option, other methods are still available. Adding your business through Google Maps first makes zero difference.

Not entirely true. I just created my GMB profile today. It depends on what you select as a business type and business category to begin with. If you don't require clients to visit you, but you visit them, you can verify your account just with your phone number and email address. Although these settings must reflect your actual business. In my case, it does.

If your business operates by providing services at customers' locations (such as home visits), you should avoid listing an address in your Google listing. Doing so violates Google guidelines and could result in your listing being suspended, even though many businesses still do it. Additionally, using virtual office addresses is also against Google's guidelines.

If you're in the US there is a category called "tour operator" the other option is travel agency

Hello, I hope you can help. My family member runs a small architecture business, meetings with clients take place at the studio but it's located within another building. Can we still create a Google My Business profile for it? Is it safe to choose 'local store' as the business type in this situation? Thank you.

If you have a physical address where customers can visit then yes, you can choose physical store. Just make sure that when you claim your google listing this is the address you'll use to verify it

Thank you. What if i offer services to business accross different part of my country as a digital marketing agency. How do i set up that and cross the verification stage. Also for a product business that offers basically deliveries but the was set with local store. Can't it be changed to be service based?

Do you make in person contact with customers? If you don't you're technically not eligible for a listing. A google business profile is for "local" businesses To change a physical store to a service area store you'll just need to remove the address from the listing and set service areas

Hi Luc. Firstly, thank you for the updated video for 2024 on GBP. In chapter 3 (Selecting Business Type) of your video, I can see on top, ""Select all that apply". In my case we visit customers, customers visit us and we sell online. Q.1) Can we select all options? Q.2) Can we change the business type in an old listing; for instance, from Local store to Online retail. If yes, how? I'm not able to figure out the edit section.

Q1) hi Shariq. You Should be able to select all options during the creation process Q2) No, the online option is not available once the listing is created but it has no impact on your listing. I believe this option was only added as part of the process to deter people who are trying to claim a business profile but only operate online
