Moz Local and Telephone Number Change
-
I've been using Moz Local for a couple of months now and I must say it taught me a thing or two about complexity management!
We recently acquired a new phone number for my business and I would like Moz Local assistance to make sure the new number gets populated out there in the wild. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Richard we do not allow 800 numbers that our partners do not accept. If we allowed the 800 numbers we would the pass the details along to our partners and get rejected. Unfortunately at this time there is no override for this requirement as if we did bypass it your data would still be stuck in limbo.

I have a question regarding Moz Local and its causing me a big headache! My client has 2 locations and so I am trying to upload them via the template .csv file which I have ready to go. But the main telephone number field doesn’t allow 800 number and my client (as do most businesses) has a 855 number as the main contact. Is there a solution for this as I cannot upload them currently as it stops me with the 855 number. they have no other number apart from cell phones which they dont want to disclose!

Gettin a little frustrated with Moz wait times. Still my phone number is not updated. http://crystalcleareyecare.com , https://plus.google.com/+Crystalcleareyecare https://www.facebook.com/CrystalClearEyecare . The problem with this is that's there's no feedback from Moz to let you know is not right. Just says these sites are inconsistent.
Also, We've been busy partnering with other firms and have many more external links but The DA never changes - hasn't changed since Jan 27th. We've sent several emails over the last couple of months and the answer is always wait. And the wait is always more than about a week or two.
Please accept my feedback. I feel you have a great service both Local and Pro but the wait times and lack of additional info is making me question the ROI.

Thanks James and Ryan. Yes. it is the main phone number and I've changed the number to the new one in both Facebook and Google +.

Hi David - If this is the main phone number you can update it on Facebook and Google + and we will auto update this info within a week. If it is a secondary phone number as Ryan said you can add it as the Alt Phone on the .csv.

Hi David. Within Moz Local you'll want to use the Alt Phone tag... (from the help doc page: https://moz.com/local/help/documentation) Cheers!
Alt Phone (Optional)
An alternate phone number by which your business can be contacted. Please note that you must have a local contact number as your main phone number. Toll-free numbers may be included as alternate phone numbers.
Example:
(800) 555-5555

Moz Local says Google + is 100% incomplete
Hi all. I've been trying to make improvements on my Local rankings as well as optimizing my website. When using Moz Local a lot of great information comes up showing me what's incomplete, what's duplicated, etc. It's very helpful. But for the life of me I don't know why my Google Plus page is coming up as 100% incomplete. I'm providing three links that possible will help. Any suggestions would be welcome! This is a personal Google plus page. https://plus.google.com/u/0/116619295168881896831/posts This is my Google + business page. https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/117236096564332197060/+WhitneyMediaProductionsSanford/posts?_ga=1.96663199.1853286446.1466307563 This is my verified Google My Business page. https://business.google.com/b/117236096564332197060/dashboard/l/04609945530443583653 Thank you, Scott

Moz Local Category Research Tool. I can't seem to find the URL?
Did this go away? Or am I blind (very possible). Can someone provide the URL.

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 long does it take for MOZ local to see changes to Google+
MOZ local is reporting that the address on my client's Google+ page is wrong (missing state).

5001 Pacific Ave SE Suite B, Lacey, WA 98503 Is this just a matter of MOZ local using cached data or am I looking in the wrong place?0
