The 8 reasons in order of frequency
- Unverified or suspended GBP
- Wrong or too-broad primary category
- Fewer reviews than the 3-pack competition
- NAP mismatch across directories (BBB, Yelp, Houzz)
- Duplicate GBP listing from an old address
- You're searching outside your service radius (proximity)
- Landing page has no local relevance for the search term
- Recent Google core update ranking shift
What to check first
Open Google Maps in an incognito window and search from an address inside the neighborhood you want to rank in. If you don't appear, run a full GBP audit — verification status, category, service areas, photos, review count, and Q&A. 80% of 'not showing' problems come from one of those.
