Organic vs Places (Maps) Searches
-
I realize one can use the google adwords keyword tool to get rough organic search volume, but Is there a method to see how much a keyword is searched within specifically google places? That is, seperated out from the organic search?
Ideally i would like to see how often certain keywords are search for in google, v.s. in google places/maps directly.
maybe it is not possible.
cheers,

Hi Storwell,
Unfortunately, there is no tool that I know of that does this. I was actually discussing this recently with some other good Local SEOs and the consensus was no, this doesn't exist. It would be nice if it did!
One fellow suggested making a rough estimate from the number of Adwords impressions that actually trigger local results in the SERPs, but we agreed, that was kind of a tough approach.
Sorry not to have a can-do answer for you on this one. There are many local research tools that have yet to be developed. The market - though giant - is still new-feeling to many, and rather under-served.
Kind Regards,
Miriam

Not possible I am pretty sure, you can only split up data from - Mobile sources and desktop devices currently.
Google needs to develop some type of analytic offering showing an overall view for places accounts, it is very limited what you can do if you manage an account with say 800 locations in places.

Medical terms and keyword monthly search ranges
I have a question with regards to the monthly search ranges. I read your information on how the range is calculated but it does not explain the following. Google AU comparison for "hives" and "urticaria". The range give is 11.5-30.3K per month for both terms. This is highly unusual because we know that people use hives more than urticaria when searching for the same disease. Interesting this is the only medical term that behaves like this and want to understand the reason why.

Google changes my title in search results randomly, any idea why?
hi all, i recently noticed google changing the title tag of one of my pages in search results for certain keywords... I've done a bit of a search and see its not uncommon, however from what i can tell they usually change the title if it is too long, or they seem to change the branding location etc... In my case they are litterally adding key words to it... Example - See Image 1 - This is my main keyword - the title displays correctly See Image 2 - Another keyword - see how google has added "irrelevant" keywords to the title Any ideas why this happens? fr0PIK7.jpg sv6zWOu.jpg

Counting Places LIstings in Manual Rank Checking?
Hello, When doing manual keyword lookups, are people counting Google Places listings in their rankings? E.g. If the website's places listing is the "5th" item on the results page, do you count that keyword as "5"? -- even if the organic listing comes up first at, say, position $20? On one hand I'd be in favor of including them in order because "who cares" if the user sees your website first, or the Places listing that points to your website first? But then again, it's my understanding that places listings are highly variable, so that they should be skipped entirely in calculating rank positions. So what are others out there doing? And by places of course I mean Google + Local/Plus or whatever they are calling it this week. Thanks!
