Google Places in multiple languages
-
Hi how are you?
I work with a big hostel network in South America. When i look for 'hostel (city)', some results from Google Places appear.
The profile in Google Places is in english, but i searched it from google.com.ar. Is it possible to have Google Places' profile in several languages?
Thanks!
Best wishes,
Ariel

I'm having one problem with that.
My businness is just one, so Google doesn't let me add listings via uploading an Excel file.
Do you know how can I manage to add it in different languages without an Excel file?

Hi you can do it easily,
You just need to do the file in two different languages, and split the uploads in different uploads..
Some tips from Google include the following:
- Each file should contain all of your listings in that language.
- For all files except your initial file, you should select 'This file adds to my current locations.'
- Make sure when you upload that you change the language selector in the upper-right hand corner of your Places account.
- Each listing (even if same business in another language) should have a unique storecode; that is, the same location should have different storecodes for each country's listing.

Unusual Google+ Local listing ranking well
If you search for locksmith Phoenix, this Google+ page is ranked #3 in the local results: https://plus.google.com/117543374216451236579/about?hl=en The phone number is a VOIP number, they don't appear to have many/any citations, no reviews, etc. They've listed the Yelp search results page as their website. Strange. How are they ranking so well? Is Google ranking them well because it's associating them with Yelp.com? Any thoughts?

Merging Google+ with Google Local
Greetings Mozzers, I'm having a tough time merging my Google+ page with my Google Local page and wanted to see if anyone could give me some additional information/advice for progressing on this. Google+ Profile: https://plus.google.com/112342618763108384372/about?hl=en Google Local: https://plus.google.com/104995472630988321277/about?gl=us&hl=en Both of them have been verified and "managed" via postcards, however the Local one never seems to get "managed". I look forward to hearing back on any guidance/advice. Much appreciated,

Google Places: "this place is permanently closed" what next?
All, I'm working on a duplicate Google places listing issue. One of the listings is accurate, verified and has been reviewed by quite a few customers. However, we have a problem with an old address that still shows up in Google maps and seems to be the cause of poor performance for the accurate listing. The old address listing was deleted but may not have been removed using best practices based on what I've been able to read here at SEO Moz. The old address listing has been flagged by Google with a notation: “this place is permanently closed.” My question is what happens next? Do listings that have been flagged as permanently closed eventually drop out of the search results Or do I need to take additional action? It appears that once a listing has been flagged as permanently close you can no longer report a problem so that route seems to be unavailable.

How do I get Google Places to pick up my reviews from other sites?
I have reviews on Yelp, Insiderpages.com, and Citysearch. All of my contact information matches up, but Google does not seem to be finding them and adding them to my Google Places page. Is there anything I need to do to make this happen?
