Health retreat conundrum

[coolhandluc]

Hi there

I have been contacted by a health consultant based in London who has recently acquired a health retreat in France. Since she can't commute between the two countries she wants to focus most of her time on promoting the health retreat in France. Her current GMB profile is based on her consultancy practice in London which uses her UK NAP but also points to the retreat's website. She is using the retreat's site to promote her services in the UK as well as the retreat in France.

Since she wants to spend most of her time promoting the retreat I feel she should create a GMB specifically for the retreat and have complete different NAPs for both business entities. (could she keep the website for both businesses if she wants too?)

Would having a NAP for the retreat located in France make a difference in local search if they are conducted in the google.co.uk? I have done a few geo-located searches for health retreats in specific cities in France and couldn't see any GMB profile come up or snack packs.

Any advice would be very useful.

Many thanks

Hi Neil,

Agree, this is a little complex. Is there a staffed, physical presence at the health retreat during stated office hours, and do customers come to that location? If so, then, yes, you can create a Google My Business listing for it if you feel it meets all of Google Guidelines: https://support.google.com/business/answer/3038177?hl=en

Be sure you're carefully reading the guidelines regarding ineligible business models.
