Google Now Explains Why Your Profile Edits Were Rejected
Managing your Google Business Profile just got a little more transparent. Google has rolled out a helpful update: when an edit you submit is rejected, you’ll now get an email explaining why.
These notifications outline:
- Which edit was denied
- What policy it violated
- A link to the relevant policy
- How to appeal the decision
For example, one business owner tried updating their category to “Cannabis store” and received a rejection email citing a violation of Google’s business identity policies.
This change is a win for business owners—it removes the guesswork and makes it easier to stay compliant with Google’s guidelines.
Truvolv Tip: Keep an eye on your inbox after making changes to your profile. If something’s rejected, you’ll now know exactly why—and what to do next.
