“Websites made with Google Business Profiles will be turned off soon”
If you received an email from Google with this heading, you’ll already be aware that Google has recently announced the impending shutdown of its Google Business Sites, a platform many businesses have relied upon for their online presence. As the digital marketing evolves, it’s crucial to adapt and find robust solutions for your business’s online visibility. That’s where we, at Energise, come into play. Our aim with this blog is to introduce you to a service that not only offers a seamless transition from Google Business Sites but also enhances your website’s capabilities.
Understanding the Change
Google Business Sites has been a helpful tool for many businesses to create simple, effective online presences. However, Google has decided to discontinue this feature starting 1st March 2024. This means that businesses currently using this platform need to find alternative solutions promptly to avoid losing their website presence.
Challenges Posed by the Shutdown
The closure of Google Business Sites can be challenging, particularly for small businesses. Concerns may include transferring existing content, learning new website platforms, and ensuring continuity in SEO rankings and online visibility. If you don’t build a new website before March 2024, the old one will be gone for good after that date. You’ll be unable to retrieve text or images from it. Any domain names pointed to Google Sites will be redirected to your Google Business Profile. Additionally, any incoming links to the website from other services such as social media or Google Ads will no longer work.
