Hi,

I recently set up and verified our Google Business Profile for Nature’s Good Guys about 1–2 months ago.

Since we don’t have a public-facing location, we’ve opted not to display our address. However, the map in the Google knowledge panel is incorrectly placing us in the middle of the ocean. I would like it to show that we are located in Oregon, but not our exact address.

How can I correct this without making our full address visible?

Thanks!

Hello ArtDepart, as with the other question you asked related to Google Business Profile, I am not a specialist in this field, and only specialize in Google Ads and Google Merchant Center. So my recommendation is to ask this same question over at the official Google Business Profile community, they will be able to guide you: https://support.google.com/business/community?hl=en
