I've played with it for a couple of minutes and it looks like it needs some fine tuning. Not picking up markup on location pages and stops after the first detection of schema. So most come back as website markups with no mention of what is sitting in the footer or elsewhere on the page. The...

It'll probably take some time for the new name to creep into ecosystem and start to affect rankings due to bad data. You should consider sending the new owner this article that the guys over at Local SEO Guide published on SEL.

@Paut - I'd have all the GMB url's ready when you call so when they ask you can fire off the numbers at the end of the URL. Also be logged in to one (or all) of the accounts. Have all variations and the corresponding pages in spreadsheet so you and the rep don't get confused. Because of the...

These are excellent tips! This quote wraps up the whole article "When you buy a car, you typically ask for the keys, right? Ask for the GMB and citation keys, too! In writing." Also, tip 7 was gold in there. Great advice all the way around.

To reinforce what Linda said (not that she needs it) I recently moved a business across town, 5 miles, from the dash and didn't have any problems everything stuck. This is my furthest yet and I'll keep testing to see how far I can go because I'm a risk taker like that plus it's fun to see what...

If you read that article it eludes to the fact that those specific reviews are being posted to the company website. Under that quote it talks about building reviews out on 3rd party sites. So I'd say that is perfectly fine, and even beneficial for some marketing methods. Much like get five...

Done

Thanks for the add, Dustybones! @Linda, I just updated this with two extra chapters and a 6 week game plan. I know you already mentioned it in the forum last year when it came out, but thought you might like to know.

Try to keep it in house if you can. Nobody understands your business like someone from the inside. This is coming from a guy that offers outsource services. My catch is that I only do social media with local clients so I can be in the business and understand the voice and culture. Plus as an...

No problem, Linda. Thank you for sharing with your community and putting me on your radar! You overwhelm my feedly with tons of great insight. Thanks again!

I'm looking forward to seeing someone chime in on this as well. At first thought I think it's genius.

This is really great Linda. Thank you for putting this together. I look forward to incorporating some of these tools. Thanks again!
