Business Name Change
-
What if my business name has recently changed. How do I get rid of all the listing information under the old name and have it changed to the new name. My business phone number, address, website and everything else is still the same, i just changed the business name and want my information and business name to show up instead of the old one still showing.

The least expensive way to start would be to use the Moz Local service. That will take care of updating much of the local databases with your new information. A quicker (and much more expensive) way is Yext.com. It gives you more control and updates quicker but when you leave their service, listings may revert back pre-yext info. In the middle of the two is UBL.org. It's hands-on and a bit confusing but they have a couple levels of service that will get the job done for you.

Has anyone found a way to change the Google page linked to a Moz local account AFTER it was purchased?
Before realized that the Moz listing should have the correct GMB account connected to it, a few local listings were purchased. Is there a way to change the GMB page it is pulling data from and sending out to directories? Thanks!

Validation needed - listing not found on google or facebook, but I'm looking at my google my business listing. Whats going on?
It is telling me "we were unable to validate the following listings with google or facebook", but the information matches my google my business listing exactly (for as much as I can tell) why won't it let me validate? I know I have a google my business listing as I am the manager of it and i synced it to moz local via google my business. So why is it not validating when i know for a fact it is listed in Google? Sharper Impressions Painting Inc 6292 Valleyview Dr, Fishers, IN 46038 (317)423-0230. My other 4 sharper impressions listings were validated (even the kansas city one that is still waiting to be verified on google my business) so I am at a loss as to why this one will not validate. Please advise.

Very Disappointed. Finally an Index and No change in my PA or DA
My competitors and I are advertising in the same way and have good quality external links. Open Site Explorer shows an appropriate PA and DA for my competitors and shows their external links. Waited for what seemed like forever and after all that time, nothing. Not one external link was found. And yet http://openlinkprofiler.org/ shows everything just as I would expect. Probably gonna bail with moz.pro. I'm very disapointed. Probably gonna bail on moz.local as well because it's been over two weeks and my phone number still hasn't changed. Not to mention, all it really did was tell me what was wrong. Hardly updated anything out there in the wild. Told me it was updating all the time but the same ol things are tagged day after day week after week. Changed the darn directories myself because moz.local can't do it and then moz.local won't update when I update director listings myself. Give me some reasons to stay. The lack of timely anything makes me feel like I'm wasting my money.

How does Moz Local work with business that don't have a physical location? (e.g., handyman, locksmith, etc.)
I'm wondering how Moz Local will handle a business that doesn't want to publicly display an address. A handyman, landscaper, or locksmith might want to do something like this. Is it easily handled or do you have to manually try to "work around" to hide the address on sites that let you? Thanks!
