It means ensuring the profile and its associated information (like reviews) no longer appear on Google Search and Maps. This happens through official Google processes. We handle navigating these processes for you.
Common legitimate reasons include: The business has permanently closed. The profile is a duplicate of an existing, legitimate profile. The profile is fake, spam, or created without authorization. The business has moved, and a new profile was created instead of updating the old one. The profile violates Google's content or representation guidelines (e.g., ineligible business type, misleading information).
Yes, if a Google Business Profile is legitimately and entirely removed, the associated reviews, photos, and posts will also typically be removed from public view as they are tied to that specific profile.
Google's policy states that there should only be one verified profile per legitimate business location. Duplicate profiles are against their guidelines as they can confuse customers. We assist in identifying and requesting the merge or removal of duplicate listings.
The timeframe can vary greatly depending on the complexity of the case. Some cases might resolve faster, while more complex profiles can take several days or even longer. We will provide you with regular updates on the status.

Factors Influencing Cost: The price typically depends on:
- Number of Reviews: Removing multiple reviews will cost more than a single one.
- Complexity: Reviews that clearly violate policies (e.g., spam, hate speech) might be less complex than "borderline" cases that require more intricate arguments and evidence.
- Age of the Review: Older reviews might sometimes be more challenging.
- Type of Review: A simple rating might differ from a detailed written review.
- Service Model:
Performance-Based (Pay-for-Success): Many reputable firms, including ours, operate on this model. You only pay if the review is successfully removed. This significantly reduces your risk.

Analyzing negative reviews before initiating the removal process is crucial to ensure the effectiveness and success of removing potentially harmful content. Here's why:
- Identifying Fake or Inappropriate Content
During the analysis, we evaluate the authenticity of the review by examining factors like the reviewer’s behavior, past interactions, and other indicators that may suggest spam, fake reviews, or violations of Google’s policies.
- Context Assessment
We thoroughly assess the context surrounding the review, including the reviewer’s activity with your business and other competitors. This helps us identify if the review is genuine or part of an attempt to harm your reputation.
- Policy Matching
Our team compares the review’s content against Google’s review policies to identify any potential violations. This ensures that the removal process is aligned with Google’s standards, increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome.
- Tailored Strategy Development
Based on the analysis, we develop a customized strategy to address each review effectively. This maximizes the chances of successful removal while minimizing the risk of back-and-forth or delays.
