Google to Introduce Business Verification Program in Google ads

Let’s start this section with the announcement made by Google which says, “In March 2020, Google will introduce a new Business Operations Verification Program.” This program is for local businesses who advertise their products on Google for free. The company further says, “Advertisers may be asked to provide information about their business operations as part of a new verification program. This includes, but is not limited to their business model, services offered by the advertiser, and their relationships with advertised brands or third parties.” Google added “Advertisers who are required to complete business operations verification will be notified and given 30 days to submit the verification form. Failure to fully complete the verification program within the specified time period may result in restrictions on advertiser’s ads serving.”

So basically you have to verify your business in 30 days and if you fail to do so then your advertising services may be restricted by Google ads.
