help Yext Publisher FAQ

What information can Yext Publisher distribute?

Publisher distributes structured facts such as a business's name, address, phone number, opening hours, categories, and service information. Those facts are maintained in Yext and sent to participating services through its publisher network.

Does Yext Publisher update Google Business Profile listings?

Yext can integrate with major listing destinations, including Google Business Profile, when the account and location are eligible and properly connected. Google still controls verification, moderation, and whether an submitted change is accepted.

What happens to listings when a Yext subscription ends?

Yext stops actively syncing and suppressing changes after the applicable service ends. A listing does not necessarily disappear, but its information can subsequently drift because Yext is no longer managing it.

How is Yext Publisher different from manually editing directories?

Manual management requires separate logins and repeated changes at each directory. Publisher centralizes the business facts and pushes them across Yext's network, which is most useful for brands managing many locations.
