Did you make your website using Google Business Profiles? I hope not. If you did, well, that website will stop working on March 1 and will redirect to your Google Business Profile listing in Google Search only until June 10.

After June 10, users will see the dreaded page not found error.

Lesson learned if you did build your site on this Google platform. Google is known for building new features that don’t last. Just check the Google Graveyard site.

So don’t depend on Google for your website. You already depend on Google for far too much.
