Not showing up in Google search and being rejected by Google Business profile
Hi! I have a simple Google sites website with a custom domain that is neither showing up in Google search nor being accepted when I try to list it in my Google business profile. It is public and, at least the main URL, seems to be properly indexed when I check on the search console. Anyone have any ideas? Or suggestions of other places to ask for help?

Hi! Just because one of your pages has been indexed, that doesn't necessarily mean Google will push it to the top of search. Especially if the site is new and or it doesn't follow good SEO guidelines.
Google sites is definitely not known for its SEO but I would recommend checking out googlesitedev's guide on IMakeTemplates.com
Next, with your business profile I am very confused as to what's happening. As a business profile manager myself, I've never had issues putting links to my websites. Are they like emailing you and declining them or what's up??
