Suspended profile
Google Business Profile suspended? Here's what to do.
If your Google Business Profile was suspended, don't create a new one - that usually makes it worse. First, fix what likely triggered it: a category that doesn't match your real business, a name stuffed with keywords, an address that doesn't match your other listings, or hours and details that conflict across the web. Then request reinstatement through Google with proof your business is real and correctly described. Once you're back, a clean, consistent profile is what keeps you on the map. ProfileBoost can clean up all 11 signals Google reads - categories, name/address/phone consistency, description, hours, and attributes - for a flat $399, so the reinstated profile is accurate and hard to flag again.
