Google Certified Publishing Partner and GCPP Premier

Mutual trust is a crucial aspect of any successful business or personal relationship. A great way to establish trust, apart from one’s own great experience, is through recommendations, particularly from a prominent industry expert. That’s precisely the case with Google Certified Publishing Partner and, especially, GCPP Premier – a way for Google to distinguish companies a publisher can trust. In this article, you will find out why!

Google Certified Publishing Partner

The Google Certified Publishing Partner Program was developed to distinguish companies that are verified by Google and are experts when it comes to Google products. Here are some of the requirements for candidates:

  • A proof of how the company has helped the publisher succeed (using dedicated services and technologies, but also with thoughtful advice);
  • The applicant finished a half-a-year onboarding trial and has been taken care of by the Channel Partner Manager for at least 1 year;
  • The company fulfilled the minimum performance requirements for a Channel Partner and all regional requirements;
  • The future GCPP must pass the final evaluation to obtain a badge.

To see whether the company you want to cooperate with belongs to the GCPP – just enter their name in the search engine available on the Google website dedicated to the GCPP program. After finding a company, you can read a description of their business, view contact details, view the website, see awards and certificates, or even see what services the company offers. Significantly, most companies that can boast of the GCPP badge place the program logo on their website, but to be 100% sure, it’s worth visiting the Google website.

Here are some main qualities of GCPP companies:

  • Trusted companion – by entrusting the fate of your monetization to GCPP, you put it in the hands of a company distinguished by Google;
  • Expertise and assistance – thanks to expert knowledge, your profits can increase because GCPP partners know how important it is to optimize every bit of the website possible. Partners also have access to special knowledge panels (like training webinars), so they are constantly trained by Google to help publishers even more professionally;
  • Unique solutions – GCPP partners offer unique solutions tailored specifically to the needs and frequently encountered problems of publishers. This allows publishers to focus not on monetization but on the most critical task for them, which is content creation.

Here is what the GCPP badge looks like:

You may have noticed in the screenshot above that the optAd360 profile has a blue badge icon with the inscription “Premier Partner”.

Importantly, the Google Certified Publishing Partner Premier program is one step further from the GCPP one.

Additionally, partnering with the companies under the Premier version of GCPP offers extra perks to digital content creators themselves! Such advantages include:
