Google Places - Co Working Spaces
-
Hello,
Hope this hasn't been answered but no combination of searches could turn it up.
What is the impact for those using a co working space such as http://www.thenetworkhub.ca/ in regards to Google Places and local searches?
Assumedly there will be multiple 'businesses' using the same address including suite number. Does this cause issue with Google understanding that these are truly legit 'offices' and work address for honest to goodness businesses?
Suppose part of the challenge may be those using this address for just mail and answering...
Guess my point is, will 20-40 people using the same address for their places profile be a problem?
What alternatives exist for these folks?
Thanks y'all!

Thanks for the update Kye. It's always interesting to find out how these things turn out. I hope it's worked out well for your client.

In the end we found a unique address. The client decided it wasn't worth the risk of complication with the co working space versus using another commercial address that only he uses.
He is legitimately using this address for his business exactly how he would have used the co working space so it is onside. Just happened to be a space available that the owner of will likely never use the address online.
Sadly though that leaves us still wondering what the impact of the co working space address will cause.

Hi! We're going through some of the older unanswered questions and seeing if people still have questions or if they've gone ahead and implemented something and have any lessons to share with us. Can you give an update, or mark your question as answered?
Thanks!

Good point. As long they all use their own cell number and not the actual number of the co working space (which does offer answering services to create perception of a receptionist) they should be in a stronger position.
-
You should be OK as long as each business has a unique phone number.
As RichardGetz said above, also make sure your citations match up across sites - always a best practice, but in this case you really need to be as clear as possible.
-
Sorry, I missed that point. Hmm, that might look a bit doggy. However, if the address on your site is clear, and all other citations are the same (Superpages.com, yelp.com, insiderpages.com etc.), and no one else using that suite # is spammy, then I don' t see a huge problem.
-
Even though they all share the same suite #. I should have been more clear about that.

Nope, Google will understand that this is an office building.

Best way to manage multiple Google My Business accounts as a marketing agency?
As marketing agency we have for each client a Google My Business account. This means that we have more than 100 Google My Business accounts. We know that GA has a limit of 100 analytics accounts (free version), but is there a limit in Google My Business too? For now, we have created multiple accounts that own different Google My Business accounts of our clients. Can I just change all the different e-mail accounts of our marketing agency and change it to one? So we can manage all the Google My Business accounts of our clients in one e-mail account?

Viral SlideShare = Google Penalty?
We recently published a slideshow on SlideShare.net and it ended up doing pretty well. It was featured on their homepage for 3 days, and we got quite a few embeds. Unfortunately, a few days later, our rankings in Google tumbled. I'm wondering if this killed our link velocity, which I suppose would have potentially got us a temporary, automated penalty? If you look at slide #4 and beyond, you'll notice that the logo links back to our homepage, and there's also a "View Quote" button that navigates to that specific quote, so users can find out more information, share it, or view any associated pictures. So, in total, there are quite a few backlinks in that slideshow (88 to be exact). Is this what likely caused our drop in rankings? Or is it more likely to be a coincidence? We haven't done anything else in the past couple of months, other than publish an infographic and a press release. And if this is a problem, how would we fix it? I can edit the slideshare and remove some of the links... but it seems sort of silly considering we haven't done anything blackhat. And, it would actually devalue our slideshow, because users would no longer be able to click through to the quotes. Thoughts?

Google + Local for client with no physical address and multiple phone nos
Hi I have a client who is service-based and goes out to his local customers' homes to conduct his business. He operates from home so does not want to show his home address, he also has a number of local telephone numbers that divert to his mobile. I was wondering which type of category to put his business into, my ideal would be local business but for that I need to add the address the question is can I still hide the address the way you used to in the old format or is there other recommendations to optimise his local placement?
