SEO Q&A

18:42 I have a trucking client (my brother) that is in trouble with Penske (national company), where he has some trucks leased and serviced because somehow his name, "Gbyrd yard," got added to Penske's GMB. I know you can suggest an edit, but when I do that, I noticed the name is in the first line of the address field. Any thoughts, tips, or suggestions on how we can get this fixed??? Also, I have NEVER used this "Penske" address within his GMB or even set up his GMB yet...doing that soon. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated so I can get this FIXED ASAP.

28:03 I have a locksmith service site. One of the automotive services we offer is Car Key Replacement.

I have a page for car key replacement.

I have each page linked to the main Car key Replacement page and 6 other automotive services pages, Ignition replacement and car unlocking service.

Should I interlink the page with each other, or I should not?

40:40 What would you do for a GBP ranking around 4 or 5 for its main keyword to push it up into the 3 pack?

44:48 Is it possible to rank a GBP on a county keyword?

46:45 What tool do you use for NAPW audits?

My question is, how should I create the new location page URLs, and how should I link out?

Should I link out to this new location from the homepage? If so, when listing the locations we serve, should I 301 back to the homepage on the location list section on my homepage, or should I create a location page for the city we already rank in?
