Hey there Mad Scientists! Welcome back to another week of updates. We have put our current test schedule on hold for the past few weeks to play around with some new GBP verification methods and signal tests… This week we are back with another GBP test update where we will look at last week's test listings and possible GBP suspension factors… So let's jump right into it with a glance at last week's listings. As you can see, “all” of them have been suspended. All is in quotes because these are “all” the test listings I disclosed in our tests, but not all the test listings we did… Our other listings are still up; some of them were listed at the same address but were not “Omni Digital,” and I removed the address after verification. So we speculate that having the address listed when it's a know Library or Walmart was probably the primary factor in getting disabled. It should also be said that most of the listings weren't actually “suspended” but removed from maps and require a new address or verification. This just prompted us to enter another address which triggered a post card verification… The biggest factor here is obviously that we have made these listings public, but on top of that, they were all the same brand, “Omni Digital.” So far, our individual tests that triggered instant verification, unique brands, and we added a unique phone number and removed the address appear to be fine for the moment. Also, adding these at a library or a supermarket is also a likely reason these were hit so quickly. We are still testing some other variables that may help secure your listing, so be sure to join us next week for another exciting update. Until then, Happy Testing!
