Previous marketer may have gotten a Google Business Profile penalized and I don't know how to help

TL:DR
Google business profile is dead and I don't know how to fix it.

Previously I ran a local children's entertainment business and achieved top results on all the SERP pages. I eventually closed my business (but I am still #1 on SERP). We have about 15 competitors locally and it will pull up some more from near areas.

Since I closed, a previous competitor of mine asked if I would take over the SEO and website from them to try and get them to appear higher. I have only been doing this a few months but we've seen great improvement in all areas EXCEPT the google business profile.

It won't even show up under the same keywords as the website, only if you search the companies name. I found some keyword stuffing initially that I fixed a few months ago but otherwise the profile is complete, has lots of reviews (all 5 star), and tons of pictures both from us and previous customers.

Would love some advice on what other factors could be at play, tools I could use, or just general advice to bring it back from the dead.

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
