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

Hi there Eric!
The Yellowpages listing we are associating with your Moz Local listing is simply a best-match search for that site. Often this means we're not seeing a better match in the Yellowpages backend at that time. This can happen for a number of reasons, including the page not being available in the Yellowpages API, or updates not yet taking affect in their backend. We're constantly listening for matches on that site, so your best bet is make sure the YP listing matches your Moz listing exactly. Unfortunately, since we're not directly partnered with YP, there's not much we can do to force the listing to surface from our end. If you know it's correct but we can't pick it up, the only real downside is a slight ding to your listing score.
I hope that clarifies things!

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.

How long do Facebook and Google pages have to be published before Moz can verify them?
Hi there. I've checked the forums and have seen similar questions, but couldn't find an answer in them. I have a listing that I imported from my Google My Business account, but it comes up as unverified for both Facebook and Google. Both pages exist, but have only been published for about 3 weeks. Both sites contain the accurate business information and are the appropriate types of pages, so the best I can determine from what I've read in the other posts is that "newly" published Facebook and Google pages may not be able to be verified by Moz Local. So the question is, what is considered "newly published"? The Facebook business page is: https://www.facebook.com/JTBentonConsulting/ The Google+ page is: https://plus.google.com/b/114469171569907148968/+JTBentonConsultingAdamstown?pageId=114469171569907148968&hl=en The name registered for Google My Business is: J T Benton Consulting - Mobile Notary Public Any ideas?

Moz Local
Upon trying to Validate my Moz Local this error keeps appearing "We were unable to validate the following listings on either Google or Facebook Places." I have checked both of these accounts and all of the listings are accurate and up to date? Is there something that I am missing? Thank You !
