The Google Ruse

Hi,

It’s Jonah.

Google is bamboozling you. And me. All of us.

Clients that are looking for US are being sent to our competitors.

And I can prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

You know how you can Google search: 'business near me'?

So 'restaurant near me'. Or 'hardware store near me'. Or 'plumber near me'.

Once upon a time I assumed Google actually recommended the closest business.

But... it doesn't.

Not even close.

I could be standing NEXT to your business, Google '<your type of business> near me' annnnnnnddddd it's going to recommend a competitor!

I know. It's nuts.

But don't take my word for this. Try it out yourself.

In the next post I'll show you how you can fix some of this stuff. So you actually show up in Google when people are looking for you.

Stay tuned,

Jonah
