From suspended to back online.
What changes when you work with someone who actually knows the system.
Before working with me
Losing $X,000/month in calls and walk-ins
Customers finding competitors instead of you
DIY appeals rejected — twice, three times, more
Cheap freelancers took your money, delivered nothing
No clear answers from Google — just form letters
After working with me
Calls started again within 48 hours of reinstatement
Back on Google Maps — visible to every local search
Proper documentation accepted on the first appeal
One expert handling everything, start to finish
Clear daily updates — you always know where things stand
Rebecca's luxury rental startup: suspended → reinstated in 9 days
“I was losing $4,000/week in bookings. Arif had me back on Maps before I even finished the payment plan.”
What I deliver
Everything handled.
End to end.
From the first assessment to the day your profile goes live — every step is covered.
Always first
Free Case Assessment
Before you pay anything, I review your suspension, confirm the root cause, and tell you honestly whether recovery is realistic. No guesswork, no false hope.
Case-specific
Custom Appeal Letter
A professionally written reinstatement appeal tailored to your specific violation type, written in the format Google's reviewers actually respond to.
Fully guided
Documentation Package
I identify every document Google needs — business license, utility bills, photos, licenses — and guide you step-by-step on how to obtain and format each one.
Fully handled
Direct Google Communication
I handle all back-and-forth with Google's support team, Product Experts, and review channels. You don't write a single word to Google — I do it all.
If required
Escalation When Needed
When standard appeals stall, I escalate through Google Business Profile forums, Product Expert channels, and direct escalation paths that most people don't even know exist.
Included
Post-Recovery Verification
Once your profile is live, I verify your standing is clean, your information is accurate, and you have a clear compliance checklist to prevent re-suspension.
How it works
Simple process. Clear communication. Real results.
01
Assessment
You share your profile details. I analyze the situation and confirm if I can help. No payment until I'm confident.
02
Recovery
I handle all Google communication. Appeals, documentation, escalations — everything is managed by me.
03
Restoration
Your profile goes live. You're back on Maps. We verify everything works and confirm a clean standing.

Who handles
your case?
Me. Arif. Just me.
I don't have a team. I don't outsource. When you hire me, you work directly with me from start to finish.
I started recovering Google Business Profiles in 2020. Not because I planned to. A local business owner asked if I could help. I figured it out. Word spread.
Four years and 500+ recoveries later, this is all I do.
I'm active in the Google Business Profile community — answering suspension, verification, and reinstatement questions for free, alongside Google Product Experts. The work I do for clients is the same work I share openly there. The difference is depth and speed.
I'm based in Andhra Pradesh, India. I work with businesses across 60+ countries. Time zones don't matter when your business is invisible on Google.
Most clients find me after trying everything else. They've submitted forms. Waited weeks. Got rejected. Hired cheap help that didn't work. By the time they reach me, they're frustrated and skeptical.
I understand. I let results speak.

My Philosophy
“I only take cases I can win.”
Before any payment, I assess your situation. If recovery isn't realistic, I tell you directly.
“Outcome-focused work, not billable hours.”
The engagement ends when your profile is live. Scope and quote shared by email.
“One person. Full attention.”
No handoffs. No assistants. Your case stays with me from start to finish.
