MOZ Local
-
Is MOZ Local considered a direct competitor to Yext? My company currently uses Yext for its local directory listings, but it is very expensive. Is MOZ Local a superior substitute?
-
Great answer Garret! Moz Local provides a little bit of a different service than Yext, by updating the core data aggregators that the primary local search engines rely on for their baseline data. While we are not a direct competitor, we certainly do offer a similar service.

I have used both Yext and Moz Local as well as a few others. Moz Local is without-a-doubt the best option. Less expensive, better management dashboard, more control over your listings. Neither services goes through and actually cleans up duplicate or inconsistent listings, but Moz Local does a great job of notifying you of those so that you can handle it. Yext might have improved since I used it last, but we had a terrible time with duplicate listings and Yext was no help at all in finding, claiming and cleaning them up.
I use Moz Local for all of my clients now and highly recommend it. Local listing optimization will always need to have a personal management element to it, but Moz Local does a great job of eliminating as much as the hand-on work as possible. You will not regret making the switch!

Unsolved can I set up a white-labeled version of Moz local
I am wondering if Moz Pro account users have the option to set up a white-labeled version of the Moz Local Listings Checker? And if so, how? It would be an excellent tool to entice customers to sign up for our services.

Unsolved Why is Moz telling me to add services when there isn't a ps
Screen Shot 2022-12-08 at 9.53.40 AM.png When I click the "Add services" link, it takes me to the "Rich Data" page where there isn't a place to list your services. All of the fields in my "Rich Data" page are full and there is not anymore room to name services. What do I do?

Moz local & Rich Data in bi-lingual markets
Hi, any of you have any experience with Moz local in bi-lingual markets? In Quebec, we deal with predominantly French marketplace with large pockets of English speaking communities. However, mostly all of the directories that Moz Local lists to are English. Some offer options to list rich-data in two languages but many don't. Here's the question, have nay of you use both languages when submitting using Moz local (or other similar services) successfully in that the directories that were only English still accepted your "other" languages? Thx.

Moz Local not finding Facebook page
I've got a listing on Moz Local - www.carolinasmilesnc.com. It finds most listings OK. When looking for other listing services where it locates a matching listing, it cannot seem to find the Facebook page. They have identical phone numbers as what we submitted (verified by Google) as well as the street address. We keyed in the Facebook link in the details of the listing for Moz Local. Moz Local only shows an option to create a page. How do I get it to connect to the existing and very robust Facebook page?

What do I do if the business listed in Moz Local Business Listing for Yellow Pages is wrong?
Hey there! I have a business listing set up in Moz Local. The system seems to have accurately found the business on most networks, but on Yellow Pages, it has a completely different business listed (my business is a Pilates studio and it has a soccer club listed). What are the steps I can take to fix this? I can claim my listing on Yellow Pages, but after I do that, how does Moz Local associate the two? Thanks, --eric

Can Moz local correct listings with incorrect addresses/phone numbers that have no FB or G+ listing?
We just started using Moz Local for a law office client. The csv has the client's correct information. However, our client has listings out there with a completely incorrect address/city and alternate phone number. There wouldn't be a valid FB or G+ listing for this incorrect address to use for validation. Is there any way Moz Local can find these and correct them by matching name or website alone? The incorrect ones are not showing up in the list of duplicates.
