Question Permanent suppression after suspension?

Permanent supression after suspension?

Okay so I had made a post before asking about ranking and how being a service area business versus brick and mortar with a map 📍 affects ranking.

Has anyone experienced permanent suppression after a suspension?

Like no matter what you do, you won't move past 10 or 15. I mean pretty much fully optimized, plenty of strong backlinks built over years, profiles in every last place you can think, yet horribly suppressed.

I remember around covid prior to the suspension I could Google and I was definitely in the three pack. Now no matter what I do it's consistently 10 or 15 if not 20 plus or not at all.

Yet another business in my area, with nothing except the Google business profile with 15 reviews and a next-door account, which is linked as their website by the way they don't even have a website, nor do they have anything anywhere else and I mean nothing, yet they rank 1 or 2 every time. It pisses me off so fn bad. My online presence should Dwarf theirs. How the hell is not only outranking me but taking 1 or 2 every time with ZERO ONLINE PRESENCE .

Makes no sense. Spent the last year going hard optimization . Zero results. They obviously are supressing the account.

Rant over. I'm at the point of saying f the account and its reviews and every other account and just starting over complete Rebrand new name, I'm just beyond myself. Anyone else have this happen?

What yall think.

Question Between SAB and Brick & Mortar

5 Upvotes

My business is somewhere in between a storefront and a service area type. I sell specialty, high ticket items from my home. I don’t want to list my address but I’d like to be visible in searches. My GBP is not showing up in most searches, being outranked even by irrelevant businesses. I made the page a couple of months ago.

I don’t see a lot is information about the situation I’m in, as most seems to be for SAB’s or storefronts. I’m wondering if that ambiguity is what’s holding my GBP back, and if there might be some things I can do to overcome it.
