If you’ve recently been taken aback by a notification stating that your Google Business Profile (GBP) is suspended or disabled, don’t panic. We’re here to guide you through the revamped process and help reinstate your profile swiftly and effectively.
Historically, if Google flagged and suspended a Business Profile, the owner would receive an email, fill out a form, and then await a review. These suspensions were often the result of suspected fraudulent activity or guideline infractions. However, the explanations provided were frequently broad and lacked detail.
Now, Google, in its quest to better its user experiences, has modified this process, focusing on transparency and speed.
If your Google Business Profile has been suspended, you know the impact all too well: clients can’t find you, calls dry up, and sales stall. It can feel like your business has vanished from the map overnight. Guess what? You’re not alone—and the good news is, recovery is absolutely possible.
Google suspends profiles to maintain accuracy and trust—but even honest business owners can be flagged. Common triggers include:
Sometimes, a hard suspension hides a more complex issue, but knowing possible causes is the first step to getting your profile back.
There are two kinds of suspensions that we typically help with:
Both require immediate attention, and both are fixable—with the right approach.
When your Google Business Profile goes down, every hour counts. No calls, no directions, no visibility—just lost leads and missed opportunities. Worse, people may assume you’ve shut down altogether.
That’s why we move fast. As soon as we’re brought in, we begin diagnosing the cause of the suspension and gather everything needed to correct it. We don’t waste time guessing—we’ve seen the most common mistakes and know how to fix them.
