Questions

FAQ

Why isn't my business showing in Google?
+
The most common reasons are: (1) Your profile isn't verified, (2) Your NAP (name, address, phone) is inconsistent, (3) Your business category doesn't match customer searches, (4) You lack recent reviews or photos, or (5) Your profile has been suspended. Our diagnostic identifies which is your actual problem.
Can my Google Business Profile get suspended?
+
Yes. Suspensions jumped 80% in 2023-2026. Common triggers include fake addresses, keyword stuffing, virtual offices, guideline violations, and suspicious activity. Our diagnostic flags suspension risks before Google acts.
What's the difference between this and a regular SEO audit?
+
Most SEO audits check 300+ signals across your entire website. RankGap focuses solely on Google Business Profile—the single most important factor for local rankings. We prioritize fixes by actual impact, not quantity.
Do I need to pay after the free diagnostic?
+
No. The diagnostic is completely free and you can run it as many times as you want. Optional paid tools track your rankings over time, but the diagnostic is always free.
Is my data private?
+
Yes. We only use your information to run your diagnostic. We never store it, sell it, or share it with third parties. Your email is used only to send your report and optionally for optimization tips.
