Mobile Local SERPS Location Data in Result

[john wieber]

Greetings,

Never posted here but I have something odd and I cannot figure it out. When doing a search for a "city" specific query, a location (gold pin) appears in the SERP's for mobile. I cannot determine where Google is pulling this data. Has anyone encountered this before? If so where is Google pulling this data from? If you can help me, I would be more than happy to repay you with a LINK , or pay you for some time.

I'm not seeing that -- can you share exactly what you searched for and about where you're located? I'll try to replicate it.

Hi thanks for the reply, it is a search on an iPhone 11 which is on Tmobile using Safari Mobile. Search queries vary this is for Huntington Beach Property Management.

John,

I asked Barry Schwartz and he wrote about it here: Google Tests Yellow Map Pin In Search Results Snippets?

Awesome Joy.

Ugh, some random crazy crap that cannot be replicated or edited in the current environment. I love Google.

Well normally for tests it's based on the user so while you're seeing these, the majority of your client's audience is not.
