Google + with multiple locations
-
Hi guys,
So I want to make a google + page for my business, which basically lets people find and compare multiple airport shuttle, limo and transfer companies to find the one that is available and best suits their budget.
Being that these shuttle services are throughout the country, when I create the google + page I need to choose multiple locations.
Anyone know how to go about this, or the best way to do it?Thanks so much
Regards,

Hi Miriam,
Thanks so much - will have a read of that article

Hi Cash Champion,
So, this sounds like you would be allowed to have a Google+ business page for your overall organization, but not a Google+ Local page for your individual locations as your business isn't actually local. For more information on the differences, here's Danny Sullivan's article from last November, written upon the rollout of these features:

Hi Mirian,
It s site that operates like a flight comparison tool, but rather for airport shuttle services.
So it lists, compares, and lets people book airport shuttle services throughout the country. It is a virtual business, but the businesses it compares and lets people book are location specific -
Hi Marc,
Is your business virtual, or do you have in-person contact with clients either at your location or theirs? From your description of your comparison engine, this sounds rather like a virtual business, in which case, it wouldn't qualify for participation in Local SEO, even if it gives information about other local businesses. It's important to first establish whether you qualify for local inclusion. Do you have further information to provide on this?

OK, cool.
I'll give it a gothanks

Yes, but remember to write unique content / post for each one.

Hi and thanks for the response.
OK, so I would make multiple google + pages, even though its the same name just the location is different. So I would have TNT co New York, TNT co Chicago, TNT co Las Vegas, etc.?
-
I think the best way is create an unique business page for each location, and create unique content / links from each one.

Google+ Local Reviews
Hi everyone, Is it against Google+ Local's guidelines to request one's customers to post reviews on their page? For example, asking my customers on my email list, or through Facebook if they can leave a review on the G+ Local page? Thanks

Google+ Local Assistance (Listings being reviewed)
Hey guys, My client is having issues with his Google+ pages and I'm wondering if someone can shine some light on the issue for me... Basically the client has two businesses, both using the same residential address. The page was ranking well until a week ago, when it disappeared from search results and was listed in the dashboard as "Under Review." I've heard horror stories about this -- examples of Google taking months to review pages and make a decision, and I'm wondering if if might be better to just delete the under review pages and start over (hiding the address on the new listing to comply).

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?
