Closing Old Locations with Moz Local
-
I'm sure the answer is pretty simple, but how are we supposed to report an old location as closed in Moz Local? I'd like to mark an old address as closed in all of the major data providers. Of course, I can claim the new location, but I do I need to claim the old location and then somehow mark it closed?
When I do a search with Moz, it gives me five results for a doctor who has a single location now (I'm not posting the actual name because I just don't want this forum to appear for searches for the doctor):
-
<address>Dr. Doctor Name, DMD Verified
Old Address
Current Phone</address> -
<address>Doctor Name, DMD Verified
Current Address
Current Phone</address> -
<address>**Periodontist, Doctor Name, DMD, PC **Verified
Current Address (Alternate City Name)
Current Phone</address> -
<address>Doctor Name, DMD
Current Address (Alternate City Name)
Current Phone</address> -
<address>Doctor Name
Old Address
Current Phone</address>
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Tom

Hi Tom!
When you look at a Moz Local listing in the Check Listing tool, you can see a list of duplicate listings that pull up in the Duplicates tab. Here you can request removal of these duplicates, which would most likely include the older locations of your most recent listing.
Can you write into help@moz.com with your specific example so that we can take a look and figure out the best way for you to proceed? Thanks!

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.

Odd address is not getting reported properly in Moz Local UK
I have a client address (1-8 Russel Square) but Moz local picks it up as either 18 (when comparing duplicates) or drops the number altogether (in the actual listing info in Moz Local). How can I get this corrected?

Moz Local bulk upload US only
Moz Local has launched in the UK and I am currently using it to update my citations on one of my sites. I tried to upload a CSV with the rest of my citations but it claims Moz Local is US only and does not accept my Country Codes of UK or not having a State. Has anyone else had a similar problem or knows a work around? Thanks

I can't add a new listing to Moz Local
Hi, Ive been trying to add new listings for two clients to Moz Local for four days now. They each have their own login, so I don't believe it is an account issue. I have rebooted, tried different browsers, cleared cache, and even tried a different computer, all to no avail. Here's what happens... I login and click on Add Listing. I search for the business, select the best result and then I just get a bouncing map pin. It never goes any further.

Moz Local Submissions
Hello, I am looking into transferring listings from Nuestar Localeze to Moz Local. Would it be best to set all of my Localeze listings to not renew or does Moz Local claim active listings from these sites for you?
