As per the recent announcement by Google, the Business.Site websites will be shut down on June 10, 2024. If you are currently using a Business.Site website, it will be redirected to your Google Business Profile (GBP) listing that's associated with that website starting from March 1, 2024. To ensure that your business website remains accessible to your customers, it is recommended that you switch to a new website provider before the transition, like the locally-owned TMS Digital.

If you currently have a Business.Site and need a reliable and experienced website provider, TMS Digital is the perfect choice. You can schedule a free consultation with our team of experts to discuss your goals and get started on building your new website.
Don't wait until the last minute to make the switch. Contact TMS Digital today to learn more about how we can help you create a new website that meets your business needs and ensures that your customers can continue to find you online.
The takeaways:
- March 1st, 2024, if you have a Business.Site (a Google Website), the content on your "website" will be gone and the URL will redirect to your GBP (which is confusing to people clicking on the website button).
- June 10th, 2024, the redirect ends and when – not if – someone clicks on the website button on your GBP, your URL and "website" will show as unavailable (which means the potential customer(s) are moving onto the next company)
- Call TMS Digital to keep from any of this nonsense happening to you and your company.
