Google Business Profile suspended? Appeals denied, verification videos rejected, stuck in a loop? We get suspended profiles reinstated for local businesses. No timeline promises, because Google controls that, but we know the process. Reply or DM us, or email [email protected]

@MartinTGeorge @TeamYouTube That support form loop is the worst. While you wait, check the billing page in the Google Ads account your promotions are linked to, since a declined payment or a verification hold there will stop ads from serving.

@wataphoque @carlmonkft Cost per trial on its own won't tell you much. What matters is how many of those trials turn into paid, so if US trials convert a lot better than UK, that €13 could actually be the better deal.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@BuiltAfter6 Those keyword index counts are third party estimates, so I'd check App Store Connect first and see if your App Store Search impressions dropped the same way. If they did, look at whether a title or subtitle change lines up with when the slide started.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@thankyouecom Big budget cuts can count as a significant edit, so Meta may kick the ad set back into learning and delivery gets wobbly for a bit. Smaller cuts spread over a few days usually keep it steadier.

@WajSid Looker Studio can pull YouTube Analytics in with Google's own connector, and other platforms plug in through third party connectors. Comment feeds from every channel in one spot are the tough part, most dashboards skip that.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@blue_nguyenz That's a long wait for sure. Check App Store Connect and your email for anything from App Review first, and if it's still just sitting there, the Contact Us page lets you request an expedited review.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@sathuashrith @Meta @MetaforBusiness Meta support is brutal, right there with ya. The chat option in Meta's Business Help Center is usually the best shot at a real person, and have the transaction ID from your billing page ready so it doesn't turn into another loop.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@thepapanakama @GoogleMyBiz @GoogleSmallBiz @Google @googlemaps Flag each one as inappropriate or fake through the review three dot menu, and keep screenshots of the names. Google usually cleans those up once you report them consistently.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@bradsmith Responding is half the review win and it's the part that always slips. Even a short thank you on the five stars keeps the habit going so the tougher ones don't feel like a big deal when they show up.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@RhetTurnbull @Apple @johnternus Three days on a later build of the same version is rough. External TestFlight can still get stuck for no clear reason sometimes. The W9 hold before you can even submit to the App Store is a whole other mess.

Last year: 6% of consumers asked AI for a local business pick.

This year: 45%.

The AI reads Google. Your profile, reviews, website.

If it doesn't name you, you never had a chance.

Skeptical gets you named.

@kanyinsolaa01 Duplicating is where it gets messy for sure. Change just one thing per copy, like only the creative or only the audience, so you can actually tell what moved the numbers.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@soupy1x Glad it's looking better today. Keep an eye on that gap between clicks and landing page views for a week and you'll know if it was a one off.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@frost_seo That setup always ends badly. The client should own the Google Ads account and grant the agency access, never the other way around. Proprietary strategies that need a locked account usually aren't worth protecting.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@paco_roadto10 Two weeks is long buddy. Check App Store Connect for any Resolution Center messages, and if it's quiet you can request expedited review from the Contact Us form. First submissions sometimes sit longer than updates.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@soupy1x Next place I'd look is Link Clicks vs Landing Page Views in Ads Manager. If clicks are high and landing page views are low, Meta's counting taps that bounce before the page loads, even when speed looks fine on your end.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@alvaro_mrgr Congrats buddy. First App Store submissions can take a couple days, sometimes longer if they want more info. Updates usually move faster once you're through the first one.

[Skeptical Agency @skepticalagency]

@Olusanyaoluwan2 You got it buddy. Dev store should get you practicing those flows without the stress.
