Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Chris, thanks very much for your quick reply.

I'm just making sure that you understand that question, which was, why was the ranking different on Google Search than it was on Google Maps?

If you understand it correctly, do you mean Google Maps is connected to Google My Business?

So when we apply SEO practices, Google Search has a different algorithm to Google My Business, which determines your rank on Google Maps?

Thanks!

why does a business rank differ on google search and google maps (for example, a hair salon we do seo for ranks 5th for "hair salon in Dublin" on Google Maps and ranks 10th on Google search)
