In August 2022, Search Engine Roundtable found that Google was testing an expanded Google Business Profile format in Google Web Search. As of late October 2022, that new format looks to be live for everyone, meaning you’ll have an easier way to edit your dealership’s profile.
Instead of navigating through several clicks to perform edits, once you’re logged in as your business and search for your business’s name, you’ll now see lots of buttons to adjust your profile.
As you can see in our agency’s example, there are two rows of buttons plus an arrow signaling more when you click, which shows the following:
There are fourteen buttons in all to complete lots of different tasks.
- Edit profile
- Read reviews
- Read/answer messages
- Add photos
- Track performance
- Advertise
- Edit products
- Edit services
- View your vehicle listings
- See your bookings
- Calls
- Q & A
- Add updates
- Ask for reviews
This new interface should make accessing your dealership’s profile much easier. However, don’t forget that Chumney & Associates can help advise you on what works best for many aspects of this valuable feature. Contact us today for more information!
