How to do this...
-
Hi,
When you search "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney", the first organic listing is Tyler and Wilson. My listing comes up fourth. My question is, how does Tyler and Wilson get their address AND google + page listed right below search result. No one else gets that. I included a screenshot so u see what I mean. How can I add that?

OK, Forgive me if I am wrong.
But I think the question you are asking is less of a technical one.
From a quick search it would seem you have no Google Local account and that you may be unfamiliar with Google Local? Its like Google's version of the yellow pages directory.
All you have to do is create an account at the link below

This will then associate your website with your local listing and Google will be able to apply your address and other features to your search results.
Is that what you where asking about?

I've been working on a research study for Local search results, and submitted it to Moz last week. So I was able to take a look and see a few things that correlate with the results.
Here's what I'm seeing as far as search rankings (for me... might be different for you; I'm in Boulder, Colorado)
Google search for: "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney"
1. James Blatt
1st ranked site has 1 additional photograph on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.
2. Gregory Caplan
2nd ranked site has 4 additional photograhps on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.Also has 27 Google Reviews and a 4.8 star rating.
3. Stephen Rodriguez
3rd ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google+ page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.4. Marks & Brooklier
4th ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.5. California Criminal Defense Center
The 5th ranked site has one image, but was not uploaded by the Google + page owner
That said, this result has a domain name match to the keywords, plus 5 Google reviews and a 4.7 star rating.
Not that this is the end-all-be all; other things like page rank, inbound links, age of the domain and other things matter.
But if it were me and my client, I'd highly recommend getting control over the page and adding appropriate photos... even if they are from the Website.
Plus, I'd try to get a few Google reviews from past clients. Especially those who didn't wind up in jail.

U.S. Vs. Canada search volume
How does Moz differentiate Canadian data vs. U.S. data? I'm particularly interested in search volume. Why is there such a big difference in volume (much less in Canada)? Is this due to population differences or are there other factors? For example, see the monthly volume for the keyword "Business resilience": U.S. = 360

Inconsistent Keyword Search Volume & Difficulty Across Tools (e.g., Moz, Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, Semrush)
Hi there, Moz Community! I'm reaching out for some guidance on keyword research discrepancies. I'm currently targeting the keyword "sui gas bill" for my blog, sngplbill, which focuses on information related to Sui gas bills. I've used several keyword research tools, including Moz, Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and Semrush, and each platform provides different search volume and keyword difficulty scores: Moz: No search volume data, Keyword Difficulty (KD) 24
Keyword Research | | Faizali.786
Google Keyword Planner: Search volume 100k-1M, Difficulty (Low)
Semrush: Search volume 90k, KD 31
Ahrefs: KD 1 (Very Easy)
These varying results are causing some confusion. Ideally, I'd like to understand which platform offers the most reliable data for search volume and keyword difficulty. Here are some additional details that might be helpful: My target location: Pakistan My Questions: What factors might contribute to these discrepancies in keyword data across different tools?
Considering my niche (Sui gas bill information in Pakistan), which platform would you recommend for the most accurate search volume and keyword difficulty estimates?
Are there any additional factors to consider beyond search volume and keyword difficulty when selecting keywords for content strategy?
Any insights you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Relevant but not-relevant keywords impact to SEO
Hello, I would like to know if the selection of individual keywords(that are not primary, secondary or tertiary) are important for SEO regardless of the relevancy to the page topic. I am wondering how much of a contribution a non-P1/P2/P3 can make in terms of SEO? For example it is a product page and I have built my content with P1,P2&P3 based only on the product and its properties itself. Do you think that a content gap for the page could be the production process of that product? So even if it is a product and its properties page, I can add 2 sentences about the production, so that I can drive more traffic by including these 2 informative sentences.? EXAMPLE:
Keyword Research | | Siir
So lets' say my topic is "hair types" (P1) and my subtopics are "Straight," "wavy," and "curly"(P2s) which I used as subtitles. But throughout the page, I am planning to add some relevant but not-directly-relevant keywords here and there since they have high metrics and volumes. For example a potential sentence I can add: "innovative hair products these days can offer amazing results for the desired hair types". It is not specifically about "hair types" but I am using the keyword "innovative hair products" (good metrics keyword) which may help for the traffic... Another potential not-so-direct sentence can be: "For all hair types, the hair damages are common: heat damage, chemical damage and mechanical damage". Would adding this extra sentence where I am not specifically talking about "hair types" (my topic) but "hair damages" and damage examples (off-topic high metric keywords) help me to drive traffic to my website? And how much of an impact would it be?0 -
Potential traffic
Hi! I am curious what is the Moz equivalent of "potential traffic" metric in Ahrefs? Is there any keyword metric I can check in Moz to receive data on potential traffic rather than only volume? Thanks in advance!
