        If your Google Places listing has been suspended, it likely means Google has temporarily or permanently disabled it due to violations of their guidelines. Common reasons for suspension include misrepresentation, multiple listings, keyword stuffing, inappropriate content, fraudulent activity, and quality issues. To address a suspension, graphic designer review Google's guidelines, correct any violations, contact Google support for an appeal, be patient during the review process, and ensure compliance to prevent future suspensions. Staying informed about Google's policies is crucial for maintaining a healthy online presence.

            I had this happened with my business but it isn't related to moz , suddenly google suspended my 10 years old google business listing that has 93 genuine reviews due to mass reporting on listing
            if you have a listing and it has 2 - 3 times reviews reporting it may get suspended automatically because they don't monitor it and google bots takes all over that monitoring and moderation !

              Hi there! Google Places suspension can be frustrating. When using third-party services like Moz Local, ensure you follow Google's guidelines for business listings to avoid potential violations. It's a good idea to reach out to Google Support for clarification on the suspension and work on resolving any issues promptly. Best of luck getting your listing back up!

                Here're some ideas why it might be happening

                Violation of Google's guidelines: Google Places (now known as Google My Business) has specific guidelines that businesses must adhere to. If your listing violates any of these guidelines, Google may suspend it. Common violations include using a fake address, creating multiple listings for the same business, or providing inaccurate information. Review the guidelines to ensure compliance.

                Duplicate or inconsistent information: Moz Local is a service that helps manage your business listings across various online directories. It's possible that during the process, duplicate or inconsistent information was created, which triggered Google's suspicion. Ensure that your business information is accurate, consistent, and matches the details on your website.

                Verification issues: Google often requires businesses to verify their listings to ensure their legitimacy. If there were any issues during the verification process, or if Google couldn't verify the information provided, it could lead to a suspension. Make sure you've completed the verification process correctly and provided accurate details.

                Community or competitor reports: If someone in the community or a competitor reported your listing as spam or flagged it for a violation, it could result in a suspension. In such cases, Google will investigate the reports before taking action. If you believe your suspension is unjustified, you can appeal to Google to reinstate your listing.

                        GMB illegal edits to phone numbers

                        google my business local listings google my business phone numbers

                        A client in the skip hire sector contacted me to say that someone is submitting edits to multiple competitors' GMB accounts changing the phone numbers to theirs. It has caused a huge row and legal ruckus as the competitors naturally assume it is them diverting calls. It definitely is not them but could be lead generation companies they use or other competitors trying to discredit them. They are growing fast and are upsetting longstanding players. Has anyone come across this before? If so how did you handle it and is there any chance of Google listening to them and assisting in the situation. Any advice is gratefully received. PS these guys are very ethical and are mortified at the situation they find themselves in.

                        Validating Google+ on Moz Local

                        Hello, On Moz Local it is showing up an incorrect google listing for the business I work for. In my actual Google account there is only one Google listing and it is correct but this correct version doesn't appear on Moz Local. I have followed the criteria to meet your google listing so I am confused in what to do. Many thanks,
                        Aqib

                        Our Google my business listings aren't syncing with Moz listings. I've tried importing them but nothing happens. Anyone know what the problem could be?

                        We have a professional level subscription for 5 company listings on Moz Local. These listings seem to have synced everywhere except for Google My Business. 1 out of 5 of these synced with Google My Business. When I try to import the listings that aren't synced, nothing happens. I would try the option "push to Google my Business" but we already have listings there. Any ideas about why these aren't importing/syncing?

                        How long does it take for MOZ local to see changes to Google+

                        MOZ local is reporting that the address on my client's Google+ page is wrong (missing state).
                        lacey, Washington, 98503 " data-original-title="">5001 Pacific Avenue Southeast, 98503 However the Google+ page shows the correct address.
                        5001 Pacific Ave SE Suite B, Lacey, WA 98503 Is this just a matter of MOZ local using cached data or am I looking in the wrong place?
