      We are trying to include maps to our locations on our "Contact" page, and in taking these maps from Google, we came upon the following issue:

      We have Google+ listings for several of our satellite offices, which are set up through Carr Workplaces. When we look on maps, we can only find the Carr Workplace listing, rather than the listing for our business at that location. Obviously, we don't want to display the map that way on our own page; we want the map to show our business name.

      I realize that Google only wants fully-staffed businesses to be displayed on maps, and so whether or not we belong there is up for debate within our company. That said, we'd like to know how to make the maps listing work regardless.

      Thanks!

        Thanks, Erick. We do have a verified listing for one of the locations (verified many months ago) and it isn't showing as expected. We're waiting on post cards for the other locations, but I am concerned that they won't show up either.

          Hi Jess,

          Set up a Google My Business profile for the location of your satellite office. Once you set it up Google will send you a physical post card through the US Mail with a code on it. Once you receive that post card log back in to the Google My Business Page of your satellite location, and input the code. Make sure you fill out the Google My Business profile for this location 100% plus add pictures of your location/business. Once you have done that you will receive your listing and pin in the maps. You can find a lot of tutorials online for how to optimize your google my business listing. If you need any help message me, I'd be happy to help answer anymore of your questions.

          Another tip is to also add a picture to http://www.panoramio.com/ with your info. This is a google earth project. Just make sure your photo meets the guidelines. We did this and our listings show up. Not sure if it really does help or not, but it doesn't hurt.

          Good Luck!
          Erick

            Hi Jess,

            Can you provide further detail regarding what your relationship is to Carr Workplace? What is your business? Did you set up a listing via Google My Business for it? How does your business operate? The more detail you can provide, the better answers you should receive from the community.

              Seasonal Setting Options for Google My Business

              Hi there, Not sure if anyone will have any insight but I have a seasonal business that I am closed for from September to March. I don't want to mark my business as  "permanently closed" through Google My Business as I don't want my customers to think I've gone out of business. I've seen a few times through forums that you can change your business to temporarily closed, but I can't find the specifics on how to do this. Any insight, suggestion or resources would be great! Thanks!

              GMB 'Located In' Feature

              Hello - can anyone provide some guidance on how to remove a 'Located in' field from a GMB listing?  This has appeared in a client's GMB listing - but the other location is separate and so it is not applicable.  I have worked out how to add a 'Located in' feature - but not remove it.  Appreciate any help.

              GMB best practice for chiropractic office (individual vs. business pages)

              For a chiropractic or other doctor's office with multiple doctors, should each have their own personal Google My Business page page AND a business page for the practice? If they just have a business page now, is it worth creating a page for each of the individual doctors? And what if some of them have different focuses (like a acupuncturist and chiropractor), does that mean you should make individual doctor pages when you otherwise wouldn't bother? And IF we should create pages for the individual doctors, should they all have the same address and website since they work in the same practice. Curious if there is a best practice for this... has anyone seen positive or negative results with or without the individual doctor pages? Thanks!

              [Local Search] Do you get penalized by using a Google Voice number for each seperate business location?

              My client is expanding and opening up separate locations and I will be getting all their online business listings up and running. The client wants to use a single 1-888 number for all locations, however, it was my assumption that they would need a local number for each location to improve their ranking. Could I suggest using free Google voice numbers that get forwarded to their 1-888 number or will Google discredit us for this?

              "Duplicate" on Google Local - Attorney and Business Listing

              For our law firm, we have a Google Local listing for the firm (Riddell Law LLC).  Google also created a local listing for one of the attorneys (Riddell) (we didn't create it, but are in the process of verifying it).  Both listings are at the same address.  Moz Local says these are "duplicates" - is that true?  Would Google penalize us for this?  I am not sure how to fix it - both the individual attorney and the business are in fact at the same address. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it!  Thank you!!

              Google My Business for 2 Websites With the Same Location

              Hi,
              My client has two separate websites with different business names but under one location and phone number. The websites are for two separate services that he offers.
              My question is that if creating two Google+ for business pages for the two businesses bad for their SEO or local ranks?
              And what about creating local listings for both?(This does not seem logical to me personally!!)
              Thank you for the kind answers in advance.

              Removing Unverified Listing From Google

              We have an old unverified listing that has our information on it, but we can't get it off google. I told them months ago it was closed, and it is marked as closed in Google...but it still shows up. Moz Local is telling me this is an inconsistency that hurts our local rankings. I went to delete the page from our Google Business/Place, but if I did that, the warning said that I would just not have access to the page, and that the listing would still show up on google. How do I permanently get rid of those thing, so it's not longer an inconsistent listing? Ruben
