GMB Link Building

Building a backlinks for GMB page isn't necessary, take it as a option. What important for GMB page is, Business Citations and Press Releases, but use the same exact NAP that's on your GMB Page. Also, request your provider to use the NAP on all listings. Map Embeds helps as well.
Could you elaborate on press releases? Do you release these press releases using whatever major service and then try to get it indexed?
 
Yes, works fine. Either way it's better to have a link to it in there, than not, imo.

Yeah I still do it, I just don't think it works as well any more. It's just a habit for me at this point. I think other things move the needle more.
 
There is no use of building backlinks to you GMB URL instead build backlinks to your website.

Yes, I will submit the Press Releases through distribution channels and the PR links get indexed by Google themself.
