This is why I love this forum! I am going to test a maps listing stuck on page two with four category's down to one and see if it pops us!:D

So any recent studies or opinions on a brand new build? Would you go Ste or ste or STE or Suite.. or # ? Thank you kindly! Charlie

Dang I just tried and then got this "Enter the Location business name, phone number, zip / postal code or city / town and we'll pull data from Google Places API to populate Location details. " I wrote them and will update if I get a reply.

Thanks for the reply Tony! I didn't know BrighLocal had a citation service.. if you'd be so kind to keep us updated on how it goes with a hidden Adress. I ended up starting to build Niche and local citations w/o address and nust name, phone, website.. hope it works!

So if I go and hide my yelp etc. address along with my GMB profile, will that still count as a citation in Google's eyes? :eek: Or do you just need Name, Website, Phone Number now days? Or do you still need full NAP ? Please help!! Thanks Yall!

I had luck chatting with a kind lady over on Moz Local and she was able to hard confirm it w/ it being a SAB and ONLY Facebook. Because she did it on her back end it will stick.

Thanks for you your concern, there ended up being other issues like they couldn't find my business liscense.. so actually had to send a picture of it in. I am all back to normal now. I suppose if anyone else on here wants to double confirm this you could just call them and ask them.

The call was on January 4th 2017. I believe it's a new policy mainly because she jumped right to that within 10 seconds of bringing up my website. Like they had a recent meeting and just added that to the algo and to expect a ton of calls coming in where this will be the issue.

Yes.. Called got a live person, asked what i needed to do to reinstate my listing she said ok mr. Charlie let me take a look here. . Within 10 seconds she says ok what I suggest is you take your adress off your contact us site and once you have done this please fill out the reinstatement form...

Since moz local is having trouble grabbing API? What do you recommend ? I know local and niche are best but for big sites like infogroup? or .. the the others? Thanks Yall!

as google just suspended my listing because I listed my adress on my website even though its hidden on google... they said they dont want to send someone to my website, then have them see my adress, then drive to adress, then be upset I didn't have a storefront. .. Makes sense actually! Do you...

Great Responses, Thanks guys! Good points.. which now leads me to .. So if a SAB hides its address is it better to only build citations that allow to hide address? or Is it better to build all other citations with the address Google has? Now that I'm thinking about it they did suspend a...

I want to go full strong on SEO .. local SEO and that means dropping an address with everything I touch. Are Virtual offices ok for SAB's? .. of course with address hidden.. What would YOU do if you had a client that was moving from one state to another? Moving time is about 9 months out...

Wow thats news to me... I guess the main reason I didn't know that is because most service businesses are still not listed as service businesses and state that they still have customers come to their location... I tryed the phone and keep getting thrown into getting told to go to /support and...

So a competitor has my website listed as theirs on the maps listing and I can't figure out how to get it off. :confused: I sent feedback on the search and no response... I have also tried to edit the business info my self and all it does is give me an error when you click the "edit details" on...
