How do you effectively use these and how do they work on the directories?
Thanks!I can provide some general guidance on how placeholders or variables in business descriptions might work based on common practices in local SEO.
Dynamic Content Insertion:
Placeholders like |city| and |name| are likely used for dynamic content insertion. When you use these placeholders, Moz Local may automatically replace them with the actual city name, business name, or other relevant information for each specific directory listing.
Customization for Local SEO:Using placeholders allows you to create a more personalized and targeted business description for each directory. This can be valuable for local SEO because search engines often prioritize localized content.
Consistency Across Directories:Keeping business information consistent across various directories is crucial for local SEO. Placeholders can help you maintain consistency while tailoring content to each platform.
Examples of Usage:For instance, if your business is a chain with multiple locations, you can use a placeholder for the city name to make your descriptions location-specific. Instead of writing separate descriptions for each location, you can create a template with placeholders.
Example: "Visit our |city| location for the best deals in town paraquesirve.mx!"
Implementation on Directories:
Directories that support dynamic content insertion will likely recognize and interpret these placeholders according to their platform's specifications. Moz Local, or any other local SEO tool, would then ensure that the correct information is submitted to each directory during the listing management process.
Best Practices:Ensure that your use of placeholders makes sense in the context of your business descriptions. Avoid overusing them to the point where the content appears robotic or unnatural.
To get specific guidance on how to use placeholders in Moz Local and how they interact with various directories, I recommend checking Moz's official documentation or contacting their support for the most up-to-date and accurate information. -

Unsolved Multiple Locations for One Client on Moz Local
Hello, I have a client that I want to do local SEO for. They have two locations, both cities in Tennessee. To do this, would I just start two separate locations in Moz Local? Or would that cause a problem, making them look like separate "entities" in directories?

Unsolved Listing Permanence
Do listings revert to original state after cancelling Moz Local subscription? I know Yext is a feed that needs to be in place for their listings to show, and when you cancel the subscription, the listings all revert to how they were before you started (if you are lucky). I was told that Moz Local was different by a rep of the underlying platform that Moz white labels. Is this true , or still true? Thanks

Foursquare syncing on Moz Local
I searched the boards here and I couldn't find a question about one of my most persistent issues with Moz Local. As an SEO at a small agency, I'm typically managing between 5-6 different Moz Local campaigns from one dashboard. I have found the Foursquare syncing process to be extremely troublesome. Has anyone cracked it? I was only able to get 1 of my 5 current campaigns to sync. And I did it a while ago so I've forgotten how I did it. Here's how the process has been going for me. This is going to be lengthy (sorry) but I want you all to have all the deets. I see an alert in the Foursquare sync box on my left hand menu. I click it. It takes me to this page: https://moz.com/local/bulk/managed/oauth/foursquare. I see a message that reads "4 Listings need access to Foursquare". I click the button in this message that says "+ Foursquare account". I add a personal Foursquare account because apparently you need a pesonal account before you can set up a business account (a la Facebook?). I successfully go through steps to add a Foursquare account. If I click the little gear in the "4 Listings need access to Foursquare" box it shows that I have 3 connected Foursquare accounts. But this appears to be as far as I can go. What's next? Above the "4 Listings need access to Foursquare" box there's another box that says "2 Foursquare account have no matching listings." This box isn't clickable. There appears to be no next step here. I'm super frustrated by this user experience. Am I supposed to creating Foursquare Accounts with the business name some how?

Jupiter, FL 33469 561.935.6418 https://www.brightvessel.com/contact-2/ "One of your listings managed by Moz Local appears to no longer have data on either Google or Facebook. As a result we're pausing further updates. However, information distributed so far will be unaffected for the duration of your subscription." I checked both my accounts and saw the only discrepancy was the suite # was missing on Facebook. I added but I am not sure what else I need to do. Can someone help? Thanks, Judd1 -
MOZ Local not recognizing listing in ranking - score should be higher
Hello I have used MOZ local for a client in New York City. Since we set up MOZ Local for his practice MOZ keeps showing there is no Facebook page nor a hot frog listing. However both of these listings exist and are correct. Is there a way to show MOZ that these listings exist so the MOZ Rank can show the proper score/accuracy. He wonders why the score isn't higher but there isn't much I can do at the moment. Thanks!
