Great explanation Linda, thanks! I was betting on the local intent and 'accuracy' of the keyword. I think it also happens for business names where if a business has an unequivocal name the Local module is triggered, while if the business has a kind of generic name Google does not pull a...

Hi, interesting discussion. About these SERPs: do you have ideas about what factors trigger the Local module in SERPs? Is that a characteristics of pages or is it the kind of queries? thanks!

Hi Theresa, thanks for your reply. As for "About the only way to consistently know you have verified the page is to see the verification in the Google Places panel." what about other businesses I do not own in Google Places? At the moment there's no other way to discover whether they have...

hi, do you have particular or special suggestion about how to deal with Google+ Local for a business changing its location? what if the business move to a different city? thanks!

Hi, do you know any online resourses where I can find how to get a 100% complete listing in Googleplus Local? thanks!
