TTYL GMB: The Google My Business App is Retiring...
Google shared in late 2021 that Google My Business (GMB) has a new name: Google Business Profile. Google also announced the GMB app’s upcoming 2022 retirement, citing an “upgraded experience” available via Google Search and the Google Maps app, which will ultimately replace the GMB app. While a specific date for the GMB app’s retirement has not yet been disclosed, Google is beginning to push users to manage their Google Business Profiles through Search and Maps. Google’s help center explains how users can do just that.
Google+, Google Local, GMB—whatever you want to call it, the importance of having an up-to-date Google Business Profile isn’t changing anytime soon. Google accounted for 86% of global search traffic in December 2021. Medical practices that take the time to curate their Google Business Profiles can take advantage of this top search engine, ultimately driving more potential patients to their websites. Visit rater8’s blog to learn how!

Medical practice websites play a huge role in patients’ decision-making processes. To get ahead in today’s competitive healthcare environment, your organization needs to do more than simply share basic information. You need to market your services, treatments, and providers.
This interactive webinar will cover how to avoid:
Ignoring patients’ needs
Losing control of the brand
Underestimating time commitments
When: Wednesday, May 4, 2022 12:00-12:30 pm Eastern via Zoom
