Yeah, this didn't seem to be any different to me than what I had been seeing before but thought I would confirm what you were seeing, or not seeing anyway. But then the thought occurred to me (yes, the brain works a bit slower this time of night...) to go to Canada to see what you might be...

Colan This is what I'm seeing...are you seeing this? I'm seeing this for both merged and unmerged listings...

Well, just did a quick check and it could be because they have a few listings for the same company, albeit one is for the Dentist and one listed as closed? Same phone number, website, but different addresses. https://plus.google.com/116932124096980331257/about?gl=us&hl=en...

Colan, just out of curiosity can you check some of your listings and try clicking on the actual categories that are showing? What I'm seeing now for one of my client's listings it that when you click on the category names that are visible, the others show up without having to click "edit...

Marc, simply click on my name and you'll see a drop-down box. Private Message is the second selection with the envelope.

Marc I suspect they might have similar issues, though you say they are ranking in Google, perhaps not as high as you would like? In your post from a few months back, you mentioned how it was hard to keep up with all the changes and moving parts. That is so true. The thought occurred to me...

Marc As I started to try do some digging for you, and began to prepare a reply of my observations, I also came across a thread from a few months back http://localsearchforum.catalystemarketing.com/google-places-help-support/926-client-web-site-seems-have-disappeared-but.html in which both Linda...

Interesting...was totally under the same impression as you, Colan, that it did matter. I can even recall reading an article where someone actually had tested to see how much of an impact each piece of information made - and how they all got to total 100%. I guess what I picked up on most was...

Travis Yes, same issue for a HVAC client of mine. Sort of a similar horror story with dupes here and there, finally get it down to one, etc. The twist on this one, though, is that I decided to keep the address visible as they are located 1) in an industrial park, 2) there is someone there...

Can anyone expand on the yellow highlighted text issue? Is there any other Google docs on this, or why something may have been highlighted? If there is something wrong with it, what to do to remedy? For one of my clients, there is a yellow highlight for the name, introduction and website. For...

And how incredible that is to have....

Colan... chuckling here on that one. I actually had envisioned, when considering this post, how nice it would be to have a section in this forum entitled "Best Way To...." There is a TON of information available in this Local Search forum [..and I cannot thank you enough Linda for keeping it up...

I actually checked into the possibility of "switching accounts" but that's also a no-go for Google. Transfer your listing between Google Places accounts - Places for business Help A messy one indeed. @sergiuliano certainly services like Localeze are available but the entire task seems so...

Hi Colan The store has moved [or in Google speak - closed] at one location / address and has relocated / opened at another - about 3 miles from the old one. Unlike in GP, where we need to "close" the business to move it, I just found it curious that in Maps, all we apparently need to do...

Thanks Linda!
