# My Google Maps link is not recognised

1. **Open your own listing first.** Copy the link from your business's own page on Google Maps, not from a list of search results or a directions screen.
2. **Use Share → Copy link.** Short links like `maps.app.goo.gl/…` work best.
3. **Paste the whole link**, including `https://`.
4. **Try the Place ID** instead. It starts with `ChIJ` and can be found with Google's free Place ID finder.
5. **Wrong business found?** Do not confirm it. Copy the link again from the correct listing.

If a link still does not work, click **Report this link** under the error. We review every report and add support for new link formats.
