my client's service area business is seeing a massive dip in the local pack. we haven't changed any of the primary category settings or the service radius recently. everything looks fine on the backend, but the visibility for high-intent keywords has just vanished overnight.

is anyone else seeing similar patterns in the midwest? i checked the relevancy of the citations and they all seem consistent with the old rankings. i'm worried about a potential suspension or a shadow penalty on the profile. ❓

lowkey check your user guide reviews specifically for recent mentions of different cities. if customers are mentioning towns outside the current service radius, google might be de-prioritizing the profile to match the actual service footprint.

did you check if any new competitors recently added more granular secondary categories?

if the radius is wide, try narrowing it down to just the core high-performing zip codes to see if prominence recovers.
