Hi Community, I have optimized GMB like adding keyword-rich content, asking customers to review and putting up more products. But how I can outrank others on Google Map. TBH, I think my listing is more complete and relevant than others but mine just doesn't display when searching for those terms. Please help! Thank you very much!

"Optimized GMB" typically refers to optimizing a Google My Business (GMB) profile. Google My Business is a free tool provided by Google that allows businesses to manage tshirt manufacturer their online presence on Google. When a GMB profile is optimized, it means it has been carefully configured and managed to enhance a business's visibility in local search results and improve the chances of attracting potential customers.

@insightful_media Just my opinion and experience with GMB.
I think it will help but is not fast. I always need a few months or more to ourank a gmb site if there is good competition. Most important areas imo, good reviews and a website that fits gmb. GMB usually shows pages in top 20 position (just seen but not sure 100%)
If there are other gmb with years just be carefull and work on your website to appear in page 1 or 2.

Lee,
Have your read through this? https://moz.com/blog/how-to-optimize-your-google-my-business-listing. I don't skimmed through it, but really learned it to the point where you can evaluate how well your competitors know what in there. There is a lot more to GMB than keyword rich content and asking for reviews. You will really have to work on your pages to get them up there.
