So if you’re serious about local SEO, can you avoid learning about how to add event posts?
Over the past month, we have covered posts and how to maximise their SEO impact to help you rank. Day 7, 14, 21, and today is day 28. Today I show you 2 ways to use Google My Business posts to promote your event This one we haven’t covered before.
You can take advantage of this twofold by:
– First creating an event page for any events on your site, adding the markup, and hoping Google scrapes your site and uses this in place of third-party sites.
– Second, you can create an Event Post with the same details of the event, and link it to the schema marked up event on your website.

Events in The Business Profile (Knowledge Panel) Are These The Same As Event Posts? – no
Events in the Business Profile (KP) are not connected to Google Events Posts. These events are pulled from third-party sources (like Eventful, Eventbrite) or your own website and marked up in Event Schema or structured data markup.
Are you missing opportunities for greater exposure through events?
Event Title (Optional): You can use up to a maximum of 58 characters (with spaces) for your title. If you are using all of the allowable characters, some of the text will get cut off in the thumbnail preview (more on that below).
It’s not mandatory to add a title, but if you do add one your post will stand out in search results and the title will be bold. Currently, you can’t manually bold any text in posts, and so having a title does make it pop more.
