    Hello,

    we see “local seo” in rankmath. I don’t think that’s right.
    we are a inspection organization and operate throughout the country. there is no local business. So we always go to the customer and inspect buildings.

    What is the correct setup setting?

    “If you don’t have a local business, and you’ve set up your website correctly using Rank Math’s setup guide, then you shouldn’t see this section in the first place”

    Best regards

  • Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us. We understand that you operate throughout the country as an inspection organization and do not have a local business. Since you don’t have a local business, you shouldn’t see the “Local SEO” section in Rank Math.

    To ensure the correct setup setting for your organization, you can follow these steps:

    1. Make sure you have set up your website correctly using Rank Math’s setup guide.
    2. If you still see the “Local SEO” section, you can simply skip configuring those settings as they are more relevant for businesses with a physical local presence.

    If you encounter any specific issues or need further assistance with any other settings, please feel free to let us know.

    Best regards,
    Rank Math Support

    Thank you very much for the quick reply. If I do not configure the local seo data, then I get an empty schema markup as an error message in the Google Search Console, right?

    If I am found locally at the company location, it is not completely wrong, but our employees are spread all over the country. We have set Google my Business as a catchment area for the whole of Germany.

    No sale on site.
    No service on site.
    Instead, we always drive to the customer.

    Isn’t there a suitable configuration for my business?

    Thank you very much

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    You should still fill in the data in the Local SEO settings and skip the address field.

    If you don’t want to display your physical address publicly on search engines, you can leave the address field blank in Rank Math Local SEO settings.

    The Missing field ‘address’ you will get in Seach Console will be just a warning, and the ‘address’ field is optional. If you do not want to add an address to your schema, then you can ignore the warnings.

    Looking forward to helping you.
