I have a business registered on a private mail box. From what I remember they only allowed 3 or 5 registrations for the same address. I have tried verifying it the normal way by creating it in gmb and then the verification would come back declined telling my that I can't register my business on that address anymore.
Today I googled the my website and from the beginning I had ld+json set up to designate my website as a business under the address where I'm registered. I clicked claim this business or something like that and my business has been verified in 5 minutes. I did not have to go through the standard verification process as I had the last time. They didn't ask me for the address. All I had was the ownership in google analytics and the ld+json metadata on my website.
Is this like a loop hole or did google become more lenient for verification of my business?
