Google searches showing appointments site

Hello, 

 

About a year ago, I had an appointments site that I no longer use with a different name. I since then have changed to an online store shipping products, however when I try to search up the new name on Google, the new site name comes up with the old booking appointment URL site. I have disabled appointments through the Dashboard so I am not sure where it's pulling that square book site from?? Everything from email to site has been updated and anything regarding appointments has been deleted. Is there anything I can do to show the right results? I was thinking it might have something with the SEO or something?

Hey @TechCowboys 

How long ago has this change been implemented?  

 

I know you said you removed the online booking feature, but did you deactivate google reserve first under Appointments > Channels > Google > Get Started > Deactivate?

 

I'm not sure if that would make a difference , but it can also take a few days for it stop showing on Google if it was a recent change.

@Minion, the online booking under Google > Get started actually shows Request Activation now. 

 

I also updated the indexed page on Google. It has been a couple of days now but it still shows the same Google results with the old URL. 

 

I have the upgraded plan, but the Google results still show a square.site page 

 

Thanks,

Hey @TechCowboys  Okay, I just did a Google search for your site  Are you referring to the URL breadcrumb shown in the picture below? It's not actually a booking page, but takes you directly to your homepage correct?  I was assuming it was a Google My Business listing showing the "book/reserve now" option.

I'm probably of little help now, but seems to be a permalink issue maybe?  I'm not sure if there is a way in Square Online to rebuild permalinks if that is the issue
