      I have a website with individual Location Landing Pages for each of my Depots.  I also have individual Google Local Business Listings for each of my depots.

      Should I have a link from my Website Location Landing Pages to the associated Google local Business listings or not ?... Given that I already have a link on my Google Business listing to the relevant Location Page on my website.

      I wasn't sure whether linking both ways would be more beneficial thus enforcing things better or whether it's not needed to link both ways .

      thanks

      Pete

          Hi Pete,

          yes, you should link both ways.

          1.) From your Google Business / Local Profile to your homepage or if you have more than one location on your site, to the corresponding local subpage

          2.) on the homepage or local subpage put a link to your google Profile. use the publisher tag when linking e.g.

          [](https://plus.google.com/{ID der Google+ Seite})

          Hope that helps,

          Peter

            My personal opinion would be to link your Google Business page to the home page of your site and then the corresponding location pages to their respective pages on your site. There is no such thing as too many links from Google to your site.

            It generally looks a lot better the the engines if everything you do ties together and does so appropriately. I don't think it's the best idea to take a general page and point that to specific locations if each location has a corresponding Google page.
