Deleting User Uploaded Photos I’ll let you be aware that there is a way for search users to add their own images to your GMB listing. This isn’t negotiable and you’re not in charge of approving them, Google is. Very helpful, right? User-generated content is a good thing, for the most part. This means that your users care enough to add useful images to your GMB listing for others to view as resources. However, you might not like every image that comes through. What if a customer adds an image of your location’s bathroom and it’s filthy? (I don’t know if your bathroom is filthy, but you might want to keep it clean ;) ) You don’t want a disgusting photo of some- thing that’s barely even relevant being showcased all over Google search in your knowledge panel! How do you remove user-generated photos on Google My Business listings? It’s easy enough, you just have to ask Google to remove it. 1. Choose the Image for Removal Under your Google My Business listing, go to the Photos section. Next, click on “By customer”. Here, you can view and report all images uploaded by customers. Google will only remove an image if it’s some- how inappropriate or irrelevant to your business.
2. Mark as Flagged Click on the image you want removed, then click on the flag icon in the top right-hand corner. This will lead you to a new page where you can inform Google as to why you want the customer’s image to be removed.
