Local Citation NAP: Comma difference
-
Hello,
Is there a difference between:
111 Streetname #L, City, CA, 84111
and then on facebook it's
111 Streetname #L
City, CA 84111
on two different lines? Note on the first one, there is a comma after #L and on the two line facebook page citation, there's no comma after #L. Should I add a comma on facebook after the #L?
Thanks!

Thanks Miriam!

Glad you figured this out, Bob. For anyone else coming across this post, I'm assuming the original question here was referring to NAP consistency. A comma, of the kind Bob has identified, should not detract from the desired consistency. Things to worry about would be a difference in the business name, the numbers or spelling of the street address, a wrong zip code or phone number. A comma isn't going to make any difference.

I'm using the NAP for citations to rank for local results like
city weight loss
Does that help?

It depends what you are using the NAP for. Can you elaborate?

Google instantly suspends Google+ local listing of brand new company
I just tried to create a Google+ listing for a client. It's a brand new company. As soon as I submit the listing, I get an error message: "Google has suspended your page due to quality issues." There is no content on the listing, no website, etc. Just their NAP. All I can guess is their business address or phone number is on a blacklist due to some previous tenant/owner. Does Google keep a blacklist of addresses and/or phone numbers? Any other ideas?

Local SEO: How to optimize for multiple cities on website
Hi, I couldn't find any reference to this, so if the answer is already here, I would appreciate a link to the answer. That said, my question is this: When a local business services a large geographic area, I wanted to know how to optimize for the multiple towns? I already have the main city in my title tags, but there are at least 40 areas that surround this town. Should I have a "Services Area" page, and place all the towns there, or should they all be in the footer? I saw this one guy - in the same niche who put all the towns in his meta keyword section - but I think that's incorrect, especially since Google doesn't look at that particular meta tag. Any help would be appreciated.
