Q&A:


16:49 Question from the Local SEO Community FB Group: I am
talking to a prospect that has 2 locations around the same big
city, about 20 miles apart. He has 2 GMB's. Both link to the home
page, despite him actually having some pretty nice location pages
built out.


The main location in the heart of the big city is coming up #1
all over a geogrid. I have not yet checked the other location.


Should I leave the GMBs to point to the homepage if they are
doing quite well?


27:34 What are you doing to combat it?


46:26 Have you seen the creation of a GMB site completely
replace the companies domain in all the SERPs where the domain
was previously ranking #1 for over a year
