MOZ Local "unable to validate the following listings with Google or Facebook" ?
-
I am trying to upload my local csv file and I have no errors. I have a listing on Google + and Facebook and they look like they match the file exactly. I do not want to setup another list to create duplicates. What do i do?
Any help please

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the trouble with Moz Local! I think I found the issues here :).
For Google+, we'll need you to be registered as a 'verified local business' in order to show up in the Moz Local system. Here's a link to get that process started: https://support.google.com/business/answer/2911778?hl=en&ref_topic=4596754
On Facebook, it looks like your page's name is listed as 'SearchOutsidethebox.com by Jeremy Wood', whereas on Moz Local your name is listed as 'SearchOutsidetheBox.com'. You'll just want to make sure that those match up as well, and we should be able to find the page in no time!
I hope this helps! Enjoy your day, and keep on Mozzing on!

Hey Jeremy
I think the problem is that your Google+ page needs to be a business page and it also needs the address of the business added there.
You can make a business page here: http://www.google.com/business/
Google will have to verify that you are at that address and then it will take some time to update after that, so if you re-upload the CSV and it's still telling you that, it might just take some time for everything to show that it is in order.
Hope that helps!

Has anyone found a way to change the Google page linked to a Moz local account AFTER it was purchased?
Before realized that the Moz listing should have the correct GMB account connected to it, a few local listings were purchased. Is there a way to change the GMB page it is pulling data from and sending out to directories? Thanks!

Moz Local showing wrong Acxiom Listing
Hey there -- The Acxiom listing that is showing up for a client in Moz Local isn't the clients business. It's showing a different law office. The only overlapping data is the city, state and zip code. For reference, the client has claimed their Acxiom business listing. Anything I can do to fix this? I can't even click on the listing from Moz.

Resubmitting to Moz Local
Hello, We use Moz Local to manage local listings for our clients. What are the best practices for resubmitting once there are changes made to the data? Should I resubmit all data even if there aren't any changes to most of the locations? Would there be a time frame that I should have for this ie: Once a quarter, Once a year? Thanks!

Moz Local - "Not Submitted"
After a successful CSV submission to Moz Local, the only one that isn't submitted is Acxiom. It says "not submitted, not updated". Why is this? Will it just take more time? Is there an issue and if so, how can I rectify it? Thank you.
