Hi KLLC,
As EthicalInternetMarketing has correctly stated, having one phone number for multiple local businesses is not a good idea. Apart from it causing potential merging of your business details on the different listings and harming your ability to rank, Google can become very confused by citations listings 6 different business names with a single phone number. You must have a unique phone number and unique physical address for each business you list in Google+/Places.

Are these local locations in each of the areas? You will want a local phone number for each business location if you want to be the best in Google's eyes. Using one phone number with multiple addresses will create data confusion in Google's eyes and can adversely affect your Google Plus Local rankings. You can then add your 800 number to each location as a secondary phone number.
In a nutshell using one phone number is a bad idea.

I am unsure how practical that is but what is easily possible is getting some virtual or forwarding phone numbers so you can have a separate phone number. You can even do the same thing with an address if needed (in the UK at least).
That's some Friday 'outside of the box' thinking.
Hope that helps!

I found it a month ago or so for a (sort of) client who was having issues with their SIX businesses out of their home... they said it worked well but I didn't get to test it out myself.

Video on Site Before Youtube?
We are going to create a few 1 - 2 minute instructional videos. I will be creating a blog that will include the video for our main website. I want to say I read or saw (Whiteboard Friday) that Rand Fishkin mentioned to place the video on your site first for about a month (or weeks). Then, you can publish it on Youtube etc. It sounds like a good plan. Have Google index your blog with the video and receive organic traffic. Then place it on Youtube. Is that correct? Is that the best practice? Like i said, I think it was Rand that discuss this. Would love to get feedback. Thanks.

Genuine Reciprocal Google Places Reviews, is that OK?
I have a client who works with other businesses, is it OK to have reciprocal reviews going on, they would be genuine reviews both both sides as they work for each other. Is that OK? Is it best for my client to use the Google Account that holds their Google Places page for doing the reviews? Or should they have a separate account for writing reviews, not associated with their business? I would appreciate your thoughts on this please? Many thanks Leo

Local seo, business in multiple cities?
Hello Everyone, What is the best strategy when it comes to optimizing a website that services more than one city. So, say I'm in computer fixing business and I have offices in New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Denver, Miami & Dallas. (took me a while to come up with some US cities) - how should I structure my website so that I look relevant for every city? Is it possible to display specific information for users coming from specific cities, say someone browsing from San Francisco will see my main page optimized for San Francisco (containing a real address, phone number all the necessary stuff). I'd really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thank you in advance, Alex

Ranking Penalty in Google Places for Primary Cell Phone Number?
Say a business runs out of a home (so, technically, the address of the business has a land line). But the business owner works outdoors all day long and so really runs his business off his cell phone. Is it OK in Google Places to list the mobile phone as the primary contant number, and list the home phone as a secondary number? Or will Google penalize the business's ranking in local search results for using a cell number as the main number?
