Australian Service that Allows you to Control all your Local Listings
-
Hey,
After a few stumbles upon a variety of services that allows you to manage all your local listings from the one profile (the latest one was Yext.com).
It got me thinking - is there an Australian equivalent?
My research revealed nothing.
Thanks.

Hi Guys,
We are a "Local SEO" agency located in Manly, NSW.
We look after dozens of multi-location retail operations and found doing local listing management in Australia EXTREMELY frustrating as none of the services that are in the US serviced many of the AU citation sources, so, we built our own that can take bulk uploads and claim & make changes to Australian Citations.
Luke, drop us a line if you would like to know more or I can call you as I have your number from when you attended SMX Sydney a few years ago
Cheers
Barry

Hi Again,
I'm not sure if you're asking about Yext in the US or something else? If Yext, here is a basic description from TechCruch regarding the paid local listing management service Yext is offering:
http://techcrunch.com/2011/11/17/yext-powerlistings-30-000/
There has been some significant discussion in the Local SEO community in N. America regarding the value of this. Some business owners are quite willing to pay for the convenience of this service, while others find the price tag rather high.
Is this what you were asking about?

Thanks for your help.
How useful are these services in the US?

Hi Search Guys,
Thanks for giving me a little time to look into this. I am familiar primarily with Local in N. America, so I contacted Ash Nallawalla who is one of the better known Local SEOs in Australia. He replied that, at this point, he isn't aware of a Yext-type service for Australia, unfortunately. He also said that things are really Google Places-centric at this point in OZ. Sorry not to have a solution for you. For now, it looks like manual management is the way to go.

Hello Search Guys,
I am looking into this for you. I will return to this thread.

Best Tool For Local Rank Tracking
Hello Everyone, I have taken a few clients recently that i'm doing local SEO for; I'm curious of what the best tool is for keyword tracking with local intent? I have heard things about WhiteSpark and MicrositeMasters, but I have no idea what is the best, is SEOmoz's tracking good for local? Thanks Zach

Google Local Result - wrong decription
A client's description in their Google Places result is incorrect. It looks as though it may have been cached several months ago with incorrect data. Note: By description I am referring to the text that appears directly under the URL and directly above the "places page" link on a results page, not the local listing "description". Any suggestions as to how this can be fixed? All the information on their local page is correct. The website's meta-description is correct. The organic results listing has the correct description. Any tips would be awesome. Thanks,

Local SEO: What is the largest Google Places bulk upload you have ever done?
Hi All, One of my clients recently requested my team at our agency to do a bulk up load of business locations. We did the bulk upload and it came to around 652 or so locations in the form. I have done some serious bulk uploads in the past around 500 locations but never this high. My question is to SEO moz what is the largest bulk upload or single upload you have done on Google Places?

Citations have dissapeared from places listing
This site citations have dissapeared from the 'more about this place' and looks to have effected the maps ranking by dropping the listing a few places: http://maps.google.com.au/maps/place?hl=en&ie=UTF8&q=stella+settlements&fb=1&gl=au&hq=stella+settlements&hnear=Perth+WA&cid=9895804169495459418&z=14 The citations that have been removed are: http://www.truelocal.com.au/business/stella-settlements/burswood http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/Stella-Settlements http://www.yellowpages.com.au/wa/burswood/stella-settlements-13951907-listing.html (all of these are listed on other competitors citations currently) (also the places page is using the reviews on Truelocal.com.au listing above which is strange) Do you know why these citations listings have been removed, however these have not been removed on competitors places pages by Google? thanks

Multi-site listings in Google Local/Place pages
I've had problems with a client that is a local medical center with multiple sites/addresses. We've created a Place Page for each location and linked it to the location page on the client's website that matches the address on the Place page. But that means we're not linking to the medical center's home page -- and Google Places doesn't like that. I know this because after we'd owner-verified each Place Page, Google went in and just changed the website link that was a deep link to a location page and replaced it with a link to the home page. But now there's not an address match. How should we handle this? Related question: Does it make sense to claim a separate listing in Yelp and other local directories for each of the separate locations since they each have a unique address? Will Yelp & other local directories allow for links to non-home pages on the client's website?
