How Do You Change A GMB Listing’s Name Without Compromising Its Current Rankings?

In Hump Day Hangouts episode 246, one participant asked how to change a GMB listing’s name without compromising its current rankings.

The exact question was:

Wondering how to handle this: My client is a local franchise store, 6 months in biz, his citations are messed up because I added a primary keyword to the company name in the GMB listing but that keyword is not on any citations. The GMB is listed as: [brand name + city + keyword + city]. His GMB is ranking great for the main keyword in a metro area but the citations show his name only as [brand name + city] with out the keyword. my concern is a big drop in GMB traffic if I take out the keyword from the GMB listing to match the citations. He gets 3-5 new customers daily from google so he knows when it drops. Should I add the keyword to the citations listings? also thinking to drop the first city name so the name would be [brand name + keyword + city] your thoughts? thanks

This Stuff Works

  1. The business world has drastically changed in the past dozen years, and now an internet presence is one of the most important things that a company builds. The problem, though, is that almost everyone else is trying to build an online presence, which means that you have much more competition online than you'll ever have in the real world. This can be a big problem, especially if you're looking to catch the attention of people around the world, but also if you're looking to get the eye of your local clients as well. google ranker
