Why Listings Get Removed or Closed
Your GBP can be suspended or closed for reasons such as:
- Incorrect or missing business info.
- Policy violations (accidental or not).
- Fake location accusations.
- Competitor sabotage or spam reports.
- Working from home without hiding the address.
- Inconsistent name, address, and phone (NAP) data.
Even minor mistakes can get you removed — and
Google won’t always explain why. That’s where we come in.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My profile says “Permanently Closed” — can that be fixed?
Yes. If your business is still operating, we can request reinstatement and correct the closure flag.
Q: I don’t know why I was suspended. Can you help?
Definitely. Most clients don’t — we audit your listing and identify the issue before applying.
Q: How long does reinstatement take?
It depends on the issue, but most recoveries are within 2–3 days. Some complex cases may take longer, but we follow up until they are resolved.
Q: Do I need a storefront to be reinstated?
No. Service area businesses (SABs) can be reinstated too — we’ll help structure your profile correctly.
