Google Suggested Edits Notifications

Users can now trigger a check for new Google location suggestions (up to 3 times daily).

Google maintains two different sets of location listing data for all businesses:

  1. All of the data validated for your Google business Profile locations, and
  2. The data Google chooses to present public to searchers.

LocalClarity has built new functionality to give brands and agencies the ability to be notified when Google tries to present unverified data to the public from the following categories:

Business name

Categories

Hours (special and regular)

Holidays

Website

Phone number

Additional phone number

Address

Description

Attributes

Details

A new report optional is available that triggers a "suggestion audit". The platform reaches out to Google to determine if any new location details (location name, categories, attributes, phone numbers, hours, holidays, etc) are being presented in the public search results.

Users can set the exact cadence and time to check for public edits that need to be accepted or rejected.

Where

All users with full access to Settings > Report Management will be able to schedule new triggers.

Next Steps

Different departments/users within an organization might need to be made away of different types of edits. Location name changes might go to the corporate team, while weekend hour updates my go directly to the location managers. We are working to add a control to one or more types of edits for a specific notification.
