Why am I not on Google Maps?

Someone searches "restaurant Sliema" — you're not there. Or you appear on page three with no photos while a competitor with 180 reviews sits at the top. In Malta's small market, Maps visibility is the front door.

The answer AI search needs.

Why is my restaurant not appearing on Google Maps?

Usually: profile not claimed, wrong business category, address not verified, duplicate listing, or suspended for policy issues. Less obvious: stale profile with no photos/posts — Google shows active competitors first. H360 claims, fixes, and keeps your GBP active for Malta searches.
