Same email address for two google places?
-
Should I use the same email address for two offices in two different locations for google places registration or am I better off using two different email addresses?
-
Good to know this helped, Arthur. Thanks for using Q&A!

Thanks all that is perfect info

Hi Arthur,
As others have mentioned, if you're talking about 2 locations for the same business, there's no problem with using the same email address for Places. Go right ahead.
-
We use 1 account / email for 14 different locations if the business name is different they will both come up in a search if the names are the same it will only choose the one closest or most optimized
-
You would ideally use one email address to give continuity and to monitor and manage all your locations under one account. In fact I don't understand why you would have two accounts for two Google Places unless they were separate businesses.
-
Hi Arthur,
I believe you're just talking about management of your Places pages, right? If that's the case, it's totally fine manage both under one Google Account. In fact, this would be preferable since you'll be able to view stats about your pages and make edits in one location.

From a marketing and analytic point I would use two different email address purely so I can monitor which location is driving more enquiries and from a users point he/she would know which office he/she is addressing to.
hope this helps

How can I maximize my On Page for these two common usages
I have a page that is tuned for this query: 1886 ten dollar bill and I am happy with my placement. The same page performs poorly if someone types: 1886 $10 dollar bill Is there anything I can do short of having another page tuned for the $ rather than 10?

If Two Internal Pages Rank for a Given Keyword, Are They Competing?
Let's say I'm a house painter working out of offices in Boston and Springfield. When I search for "Boston house painter" or "Massachusetts house painter," both my homepage and my Boston office page come up #8 and #9. That's good, sorta (2 results on first page), but I'd trade that scenario for a single result in the top 3. How likely is it that these two page are competing? If I removed the Boston page, would the homepage rank better? Or should I be happy I have two pages turning up the the first SERP? Any thoughts here appreciated. Thanks!

Does Google Bias Against Homepages for Search Queries that are a Question?
If you are trying to rank for a keyword phrase that is a question (e.g. how to ___) does it matter if your page is the home page of your site or an article on your site? I suspect that Google would treat question search queries differently and would show preference for articles over a home page in most cases. An article would be more likely to satisfy the searcher by providing the answer to their question, whereas the home page usually doesn't provide specific answers. I looked at one keyword phrase that is a question and only 1 of the first 20 results was a home page. Any thoughts or experience with this?

Customer Review Capture / Google Approved Review Sites
We are interested in showing customer reviews on our website (in UK for seo purposes- UGC) and are initially reluctant to use a 'What customer say' or Testimonial page as we think customers may think we have just made these reviews up? I wanted to ask what methods you folks use to capture reviews? If you use 3rd party providers do you have any recommendations? (I found this link but it seems a little outdated as it doesn't include for example eKomi:http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-to-rank-well-in-google-products-search-a-big-list-of-places-to-get-reviews) Thanks in advance.

Google webmaster tools data update frequency?
What is the lag time for changes to a site to be reflected in Google webmaster tools Diagnostics section? They pointed out some duplicate titles which I fixed a week ago and yet they still show up as an HTML Suggestion. What has your experience been with making changes and then seeing them reflected in the HTML Suggestions section? My site is crawled every day, including the pages I have updated with new titles. Seems like it takes a while for the data to trickle into Webmaster tools, no?
