On Friday, Google started to indicate these huge pop up, overlay advertisements, on prime of the Google Search outcomes, for whenever you seek for your enterprise and are logged into your Google Enterprise Profile account. The advert takes up lots of the display screen, blocks entry to the search outcomes web page (and managing your Google Enterprise Profile) and asks you to spend cash with Google Advertisements with a Google Advertisements credit score promotion.
Zanet Design notified me on X about this on Friday and I used to be capable of replicate this myself. At first, I assumed that perhaps this was some kind of button he clicked on or one thing he triggered. However no, I used to be capable of see this myself by simply Googling my enterprise title [rustybrick]. This may come up and I would have to shut it out to get to handle my Google Enterprise Profile.
Here’s a screenshot of this:
It would not present up once more after you refresh however it does the primary time you strive it. As Zanet wrote, “Google is now shamelessly pushing enormous ADVERTS themselves!”
I don’t like this in any respect – sorry Google.
Discussion board dialogue at X.
