The typical listing looks like this (as im sure you know):
However, one of my competitors has a listing that looks like the following:

How do they do this?
Am i right in thinking this is a lot better for SEO because effectively it takes up 3-4 positions on search results?

The guys are correct, sitelinks are out of our mortal hands, however should you be lucky enough to get some sitelinks you will be able to manipulate which ones that are shown via your webmaster control panel.
And if you want to make yourself feel better in the short term just google your domain name and you can see it happening for yourself

These are sitelinks and Google sets them up automatically once your site is deemed 'important' enough, I think. I am not aware of a way to force this other than making your website well enough connected to be considered "worthy".

What you're referring to are called sitelinks. Google adds them automatically when they think they will be of benefit to the searcher. There's a pretty comprehensive article on sitelinks at Google's Webmaster Tools. http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=47334

Is anyone else getting this search result?
One of our blog posts (http://dress.yournextshoes.com/celebrities-dresses-skirts-wind/) used to rank well for "windy skirt", but we're not ranking anymore. When I search for "windy skirt", all the top 10 results are Youtube videos. Is anyone else seeing this? gs1eVsn

Google Places - Client showed up before, now does not
This is a strange one, and I hope a few local experts are out there. My client basically has one major competitor in the market. The competitor is closer to downtown and he is out about 27 miles. A couple of months ago, if you searched on "biplane rides in atlanta" the places map in the SERPS would show two - my client and his competitor. Now, the initial local in-line serp just shows his competitor, zoomed in. If go to Google Maps and type in the same search, he is listed, but you first have to click show more results. Then, he's listed twice - one his airport address (which is the real one) and one his business registered address (his house). How would I go about straightening this out? My client is #1 in the natural SERPS, it's just this local thing drives us crazy. If anyone can figure this out, you may walk away with a biplane ride next time you're in Atlanta! Thanks, Charles

Google Places - Top Listing & Strange Analytics
Hello, we have been working with this customer for a few years, doing their PPC, organic marketing, and we had established one google places listing for them as well. I guess the owner got sold on having someone else work with us to do google places for an additional office location they recently set up, and for whatever reason, they bypassed having us do it. This company never gained FTP access to the website. And despite heavy competition (apparantly), they have that new location listed in the #1 - A spot, without making any changes to the website. And, to top it off, when you review the Google places performance, there is a weird result I had never before seen labeled as "* loc:". You can see what I'm talking in both screen shots. Is there any guidance you can offer, first as to what that listing label means, and second, do you have any ideas how to 'reverse engineer' how they were able to get top listing so quickly for our customer like that? local_results.jpg local_analytics.jpg
