My Company Doesn't Appear in the Search Results on the Right When I Search for It
-
Hello,
I just found that one of my companies (iFix Appliances) doesn't show on the right in search results when I search for it. I found it accidentally, I just wanted to check if it shows Request a Quote button as recently I enabled messaging on GMB. Yet it's not there at all. Could you please help me figure out what happened and why it's not there? Is something wrong with its GMB listing? I have two locations so I created 2 GMB listings for one company. Is this something that might have caused the issue?

Hi VELV,
So glad you came back to the thread. Can you clarify some things for me, please?
-
Is this your company: https://www.ifixappliancesla.com/
-
Is it in any way related to this company: http://ifixappliancerepair.com/

When you are searching for just "iFix Appliances" and not seeing either your Van Nuys or Beverly Hills Google Business Profile come up, where are you physically located when doing those searches? If you are standing in your location in Van Nuys and doing the search, what do you see? And the same with Beverly Hills. Is there absolutely no Google Business Profile (what you called the knowledge panel) coming up even if you are standing in the location of each while searching?
-
When you do add the geo-modifier (Van Nuys or Beverly Hills) does the GBP then come up?
-
How long ago did you create the listings for these 2 locations?

Hi,
Thank you for your reply! It's been verified, all the details are correct. I searched for iFix Appliances. It is usually enough for other local companies to show up in the Knowledge Panel when you search for them by their names (Titan Pavers, Colossal Builders, etc, ), I don't have to add Los Angeles for them to appear in the Knowledge Panel. This is so confusing.

Oh I'm so sorry for the late response. The company is called iFix Appliances,
one location is 8383 Wilshire Blvd, Ste 800, Beverly Hills, CA 90211, another one is 13442 Vose St
Van Nuys, CA 91405. -

Hi VELV,
Did you see the responses from don_quixote and Miriam Ellis. Please provide us with the requested details (or an update on this situation if it's been resolved) so we can help you. Thanks!

Hey There!
Be glad to take a look. Please, let me know, what are the locations of your two businesses (street, city, state, zip). Thanks!

Hi
So first has the GMB listing been verified? Secondly is the address and all details correct? So a branded search for a generic type brand word may not appear - but if you add the city afterward it does. Can you tell us what you searched?

Different Search Results Depending On Location
Hello all, I was talking to a client earlier this week and they were telling me that they were not ranking fora desired keyword term. When I, however, ran a Google search for the keyword term in question, the client's website was showing a ranking on my end. We are both located in California. I'm in Southern California and they're in Northern California, but I don't think that should make a significant difference should it? Anyway, I've never run into such a quandary before and am curious to know if any of you out there can help me better understand why we're receiving different search results. Any and all insights are welcomed and appreciated.

To be sure this is what we've done. We have a google+ page + verified content (for more than 4 months now) We have images, opening times, email, url's and such filled in (for 4 months now) We are on several local sites with our address, and such We do have some old listings here and there where we have old addresses but its just a few and we are on it to update / deleting them We have Microdata on our site with our address, lat lang and such. All address data on social, and few other pages are super in sync with each other. We are located in the Netherlands so a lot of info on this site we cannot use, becuase they don't accept us for example. Very curious on some interesting info how to optimize and why we are not showing.0 -
Why does my business does not appear on Google Maps ?
I recently created a Google + Profile for a client (I'm from Canada), even created a profile for Google Maps, received the code and my business is now verified. It's been nearly three weeks and the business still does not show or is even marked on Google Maps. I reviewed my profile to make sure I did not forget anything. I even contacted Google maps to suggest a change, nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me ? Thank you !

Do Local PPC Ads Get Ranked Higher Even Though the User Doesn't Specify Search Location
See the attached image.I searched for a drug called "Actos". The first Google Adwords result was a result specific to "Arkansas" which is odd because I didn't specify that I was in Arkansas. I understand that Google makes that recommendation because Google knows I'm in Arkansas. The resulting landing page has NOTHING to do with Arkansas and you can view it here: http://bladdercancerlawsuit.org/actos-bladder-cancer/My question is this: Does the fact that the AD has the name of the user's state (Arkansas) make the "click" less expensive or higher ranking or both? Is this known by Adword specialist community? I'm wondering because this is an expensive keyword and hard to guarantee top position for. If this is a technique we should incorporate, I'd love to do it. U1dfiiE

Question about onsite NAP as it relates to Local Search
Hi Gang, State requirements mandate that our law practice (Keller & Keller) properly display their distinct business entities on all advertising materials, including our website. Specifically, our offices are set up in a way that makes Indiana's law office an LLP, New Mexico's an LLC, and Michigan's a PLLC. All 3 offices/states are represented on a single domain, but I want to be careful about mixing the different registration titles (LLP, LLC, PLLC) throughout our site when we commonly refer to ourselves simply as Keller & Keller throughout the main pages and in our content. I worry it may negatively affect our local listings? (One idea is to place a simple 'disclaimer' in the footer throughout our site that identifies the business entities, however, I'm still concerned this too might affect/confuse our local listings?) All thoughts, advice, and theories are welcome! Thanks, everyone! (And to my fellow Yanks, enjoy a safe Memorial Day weekend!) W-

Swiss SEO Companies
Hello Moz Community! My name is Colby. I work with Comit Developers here in the US, but I currently have a client that is in need overseas. My client is looking for SEO work in Switzerland. We've never worked in this country, but we are willing to outsource to get a little help. I am looking for some smaller SEO companies in or nearby Zurich. Does anyone have any ideas? We are looking for companies who can charge fair prices. I'm not sure how expensive the Swiss market is for SEO, but I'd love some insight. Can anyone help me?
