Major GMBapi Updates: Smarter Local SEO Starts Here

We’ve rolled out some exciting new features and improvements to help you stay ahead in local search, save time, and make smarter decisions across all your locations. From competitive analysis to AI-powered insights and faster content management, here’s what’s new in GMBapi.com:

New Feature: Competitor Analysis

See Where You Stand in Local Rankings

We’re excited to introduce Competitor Analysis – a powerful new feature designed to help you understand exactly how your locations stack up on Google against nearby competitors.

What You Can See:

• Google ranking positions across 35 local points within a set radius

• Your top 20 local competitors in the area

• Visibility percentage (e.g. 100% = ranking in the top 20 at all 35 points)

• A detailed map view of your rankings at each point

• Click any competitor to drill down into their own ranking map

How It Works

The scan uses real-time data from Google’s “Places” search (type: establishment), meaning it covers all types of local businesses. You can run a scan by brand name, keyword, or address, and get full results in as little as 10–20 seconds.The average ranking is calculated across the 35 points, while visibility tells you how often your location appears in the top 20. For example, if you’re #5 in some areas but not ranking at all in others, you’ll see a lower visibility score.

Use It For:

• Sales demos: show prospects how they compare

• Audits: benchmark and prioritise improvements

• Strategy: track market shifts and opportunities

• Add fresh images to keep listings engaging

• Maintain brand consistency across multiple locations

Bonus: There’s no limit on the number of edits you can make to your locations anymore – perfect for teams managing large location sets.
