Exploring the Essential Features of “David Hood – Maps SEO Ninja Training“
Increase Rankings in the Local SEO VIP Line
One of the most critical pieces to ranking most clients is ranking them well in the maps…
Just look at how much more space the Maps listings (and the ads) take up now vs several years ago:
You used to be able to see 5 normal organic SEO listings above the fold…
Now, you see ZERO…you can’t even see all the maps listings!
…and I even made my browser as tall as I possibly could on my 30 inch monitor…
Therefore, I set out on a mission in December of 2018 to really crush it in maps for myself and my clients…
…and I’ve not given up since then…
I’ve been at this for over 2 years and I’m more convinced today than I was over 2 years ago that Maps SEO is becoming more and more important for local businesses.
I was already able to rank pretty well, but I wanted to know if there was more that I was leaving on the table…
So I purchased several products…studied them…
…and applied a wide range of techniques to a bunch of test GMB’s (37 to be exact)…
And, WOW…I think I hit gold…
Results from the 37 test GMB’s:
I increased my maps rankings in 32 out of 37 tests…
…and 13 out of those 32 went up by more than just a little in the maps…
…and 1 of them went from barely ranking to top 3 all over the place in the maps in a big city for a competitive keyword!
…in 2.5 months
…and I didn’t even throw the kitchen sink at all of these test cases.
Furthermore, I’m continually testing new techniques with my test GMB’s…
Here’s what it will look like once you get inside:

What’s the point of working hard to rank a GMB if it just gets suspended 6 months in?
No GMB is 100% safe from suspension…
…but there are definitely actions you can take to reduce your chances of a suspension…
…and some actions you can take or not take that increase your chances of suspension.
Furthormore, there’s a half-way suspended state called “ghosted” that you should be aware of.

…I list them here and what I learned from them.
Furthermore, I give suggestions on how to run your own Maps SEO testing…

Yet, I think this is very important to understanding how Google’s algorithm works.
