A really silly thing to do. Lots of keywords in that description, oh, and a phone number! Looks like they forgot to mention the street name and number! :confused:

Thanks! That was exactly my concern. I'm glad that hidden addresses are no longer disadvantaged. :)

No problem about the questions. :) They have their own warehouse, orders will be delivered by their own couriers, meaning that they will meet their customers face-to-face. It's a 100% Melbourne based business, no franchises, intermediaries or anything of that sort. I was planing on using the...

Linda, thanks for the super quick reply. It's going to be an online store offering gift deliveries. :) After more research I found some relevant information on localvisibilitysystem.com, but it's from 2012. How have things evolved in the meantime?

Re: SweetIQ- anyone use it? I haven't tried it so far, but since you mentioned it here... I'm registering for a trial right a way and hoping to take it for a spin soon. :)

Wow, I wasn't expecting such a reply. Thanks Linda, and feel free to quote anything you like. :)

Re: Bing Launches New "Places for Business" Dashboard. Can you say Copy Cat? Bing launches this and Bing launches that. Nevertheless, from the point of view of someone living in Europe, as long Bing Local stays US restricted, they will be way behind Google, Nokia a.o. companies, and not worth...
