Moz Local "Listing Reach" plummet
-
Hello,
I use Moz Local for our company's 12 locations. On August 15 we had a "Listing Reach" of 315. Today I noticed we're down to 29.
How does one verify what the problem is with Moz Local?
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the link. I'll go read that.

Hi there.
According to this article about MOZ Local - https://moz.com/blog/announcing-local-reporting
Listing Reach is our indirect representation of how far the data aggregators have spread your listings across the local ecosystem, based on the number of results returned for exact-match searches of your NAP.
so, as far as i understand it's literally just estimate of number of searches. So, if there was large decrease in overall searches or decrease in searches for your industry and your name didn't show up in results - you'd get change in "Listings Reach".
So, it's not necessarily problem with MOZ local. I say just wait couple weeks and see if there are more jumps.

Validation needed - listing not found on google or facebook, but I'm looking at my google my business listing. Whats going on?
It is telling me "we were unable to validate the following listings with google or facebook", but the information matches my google my business listing exactly (for as much as I can tell) why won't it let me validate? I know I have a google my business listing as I am the manager of it and i synced it to moz local via google my business. So why is it not validating when i know for a fact it is listed in Google? Sharper Impressions Painting Inc 6292 Valleyview Dr, Fishers, IN 46038 (317)423-0230. My other 4 sharper impressions listings were validated (even the kansas city one that is still waiting to be verified on google my business) so I am at a loss as to why this one will not validate. Please advise.

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

Moz Local for Physicians
I have a Moz Local campaign set up for a physicians clinic. MOZ has informed me that several duplicate listings for the office have been found. Some are listed using an old business name, some are listed using an old business name w/ physicians no longer practicing at the clinic. Most all have inconsistent data. The question is: Do I "ignore" or "close" these duplicate listings? Also, should I wait to clean up inconsistent data until MOZ has successfully "submitted and updated" the listings in the directories they submit to? When I search my local listing with Moz, why does it state that MOZ is unable to contact YP, Hotfrog, and Best of the Web? I will appreciate any guidance here:-)

Moz Local not updating after G+ and FB are updated
Per the FAQ, we updated the client G+ and Facebook address information, but Moz Local still lists the incorrect address information. Any ideas on a time frame when the MOZ listing will update? FAQ's state an hour, but that is not happening in this case.

Moz Local Validation
I am trying to list my business under Moz Local. I have filled out all of the documentation and had no errors. However I am stuck on Validation. It says "We were unable to validate the following listings on either Google or Facebook Places." I have checked both my google and facebook pages they are up to date with the most current address. Any ideas where the problem may be?
