Duplicate listings split your authority and confuse customers. We find every duplicate, merge what should merge, and remove what shouldn't exist.
Found duplicate listings for your business? You're losing reviews, ranking authority, and customer calls to ghost profiles. Duplicates fragment your local SEO and confuse Google about which listing is canonical.

You moved locations and Google created a new listing for the new address while the old one persisted. Now you have two listings, both partially right. We migrate the canonical signals (reviews, photos) to the new listing and submit removal for the old.
Even after you delete a duplicate, data aggregators (Data Axle, Localeze, Factual) feed it back into Google within weeks. We update at the aggregator level so the duplicate stops regenerating , this is the step most cleanup attempts miss.
National brands sometimes have franchisee-created listings competing with corporate listings. We map ownership and merge correctly, preserving the right reviews and citations.
Locksmiths and garage door companies often have ghost listings auto-generated from third-party data. These don't belong to anyone but rank against you. We submit category-specific spam reports.
You bought a business and the previous owner's listing is still verified. We file ownership transfer with proof, or close the old listing and migrate to a clean new one.
| Type | Typical fix |
|---|---|
| Address change | 14-21 days |
| Aggregator-fed | 30-60 days |
| Franchise mismatch | 21-45 days |
| Auto-generated | 14-30 days |
| Old owner residue | 14-21 days |
Stubborn aggregator-fed duplicates can take 60+ days because the source data must clear before Google stops regenerating.
Google's merge process consolidates reviews, photos, and Q&A from both into the canonical listing.
For these, file a removal request rather than merge. Merging an illegitimate duplicate can corrupt your canonical listing.
They split reviews, citations, and authority across multiple profiles. Google can't decide which one is canonical and ranks all of them weakly.
Most cases resolve in 14-30 days. Stubborn duplicates from data aggregators can take 60 days.
If we merge correctly, all reviews consolidate to your canonical listing. We map this carefully before submitting.
