Hello,
I’m sorry to hear about the confusion you’re facing. Setting up a Google My Business (GMB) profile for your rental listings website can indeed benefit you, especially if you’re targeting local keywords for apartment rentals in your country. GMB can help improve the visibility of your website in local search results and attract more potential renters.
Since you’re not owning a physical business location, you can still create a GMB profile for your website. When setting up your GMB profile, you can select the option for “Service-area business” to indicate that you serve customers at their location within a specific service area. This will allow you to specify the areas where you offer your rental services.
As for Rank Math’s business block or shortcode, it would be wise to use Rank Math’s built-in Local Business Block if you’re using the Gutenberg Block editor. This will help you display your business and location information on the front end of your website, which is recommended if you’re using Local SEO Schema.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with setting up your GMB profile or using Rank Math’s features, please feel free to reach out to our support team directly from here: Rank Math Support. We’re here to help!
I hope this helps!

Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for contacting support.
The purpose of Google My Business is for people to register their business data so that Google is able to better understand it and associate it with the website to show the cards you usually see when looking for a business.
If you don’t own a business associated with the website you shouldn’t register for that.
The same is true for the Local SEO module of our plugin. That module is designed for people that have a business with a local address and unless you have one you shouldn’t be adding just dummy content in the hopes of ranking higher.
It’s always a good idea to be as accurate as possible with the information provided to Google.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
