Joy, thank you SOOOO much for this article!! I have a number of folks that left the Dermatology practice I work with and was at a loss of what to do with their listings. Got this article added to my Evernote library!!

Great time saver getting to do it for the entire year!! This will work well for my doctor clients. Thanks so much Linda!!

Glad Google continues to listen to your brilliant ideas, Linda!!! Maybe they will also reach out to doctors, hair salons, and spas for appointments, too.

Well if nothing else, this provides another item on the list of Google changes to share with clients. I agree it is difficult to know what's what on this one. I found creating unique content for each service and each city helps as well, but it is time consuming. Thanks for another great...

One of my questions was how to tell if a website that has been flagged by Google (in GWT)and has been repaired to meet Google's requirements. The site I'm working with is Homeowners Association Management |Community Manager | Atlanta It's a brand new website. It had 5 pages that were...

Hi Rachel, I work with a dermatologist with three doctors in the practice. Only ONE of the doctors has showed up in an additional Google+ page and NONE of the PA's in the office. However, they have all shown up in Yahoo Local (and I have some old ones I can't seem to get rid of). Hope...

Tried this for a dermatologist who has gone through a number of doctors in the practice in the past few years. Found a name associated with the practice that I didn't even recognize. Wow!! Thanks for the help, Linda. Will be using this a bunch :) Theresa 8-)

I find this all a bit frustrating. I work with a number of small businesses that work from home and do NOT want their home addresses listed as their business address on Google. If they can't use a P.O. Box or a UPS address than what else can they use if they want to keep their NAP consistent...

Some folks are just looking for an excuse to be a victim. Thanks for sharing the info. I have a number of clients that work from home and we've tried alternative addresses that didn't work. It's even harder when the company is MULTIPLE people all working from their homes around an area. Are...

How does this work for home based businesses. I have a number of clients now that own businesses that work out of their home. They even have multiple employees who are all working out of their respective homes. Obviously their home isn't available for walk in traffic, but they're available by...

Today's online local market place is competitive. It used to be simple. Buy a bigger sign or buy a bigger add in the Yellow Pages (talk about expensive!) or maybe buy a bigger ad in a newspaper. Notice the keyword was BUY. It's not so simple today. Today, you're buying the expertise of a...

Great new data point to promote to SMB's. Also will help demonstrate the use of mobile when they are in doubt. Great info. Thanks!! Theresa 8-)

Re: Pigeon Analysis - New Insights about this Crazy Google Local Algo & the Constant Wow! It might be all about links again. Linda, can you clarify what he means by "links back to Landing Pages?" Thanks!! Theresa 8-)

When I started using Google Local many moons ago, I placed all of my clients under my own Google login. I have about a dozen clients there and it has yet to upgrade to the new Google+Local dashboard. These are verified listings and do not have Google+ pages setup for them. I've been setting...
