Google is considering charging for GMB usage. Did you get the survey?
All innkeepers need to be aware of and be updating their GMB (Google My Business) account on a regular basis. GMB came on the scene in June of 2014, and has always been a free service. But that may be changing. From our on going study of your website button on the GMB listing, these click through and booking results have been growing as compared to your regular FREE Organic listing click throughs and bookings.
If you are one of the lucky ones to receive a survey from Google to share your thoughts, please respond. This would just be one more way for Google to take business owners' money.
