Updating a Business name only in Moz Local.
-
My clients business changed their name. When I updated the CSV with the new business name in Moz Local it created a brand new business listing.
Is there a better way to update only the business name?

Hi Gyi,
Thanks for letting me know this. I'm really sorry for whatever may have caused this confusion. May I suggest that you please start a ticket at https://moz.com/help/contact so that you can share the complete details of your Moz Local account in private and have it investigated by our help team? That would be the best way to approach this, I believe.

The name on both the Facebook and Google+ page were updated prior to uploading my new business information.

Hi Gyi,
Thanks for your question. This is my understanding of our process of uploading changes to an existent listing:
When you want to change any of the NAP+W (name, address, phone, website) information for a listing, you will first need to update this information on either Google or Facebook. We use Google/Facebook to verify that listing information is correct.
When you are done updating your information on Google/Facebook, you can then go ahead and upload your updated CSV to us and we will recognize it as an update and not charge you as if it were a brand new listing.
It is important to note that you must modify your existing listing on Google/FB and not create a new one. Otherwise we will not be able to recognize it as an update.
Did you take these steps in this order, Gyi? Please, let me know!

Moz Listing Paused
One of my Moz listings is paused because "Listing not found on Google or Facebook." My Google account is linked to Moz and the listing is showing in Google results and on the back end of Google My Business but it is not showing in the Import option. You can see the listing does exist and is live on Google: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Woodstock+Furniture+%26+Mattress+Outlet/@34.088617,-84.584448,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x8ea1bc3d2994cbf4?hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiq5ZXejtPYAhXHyoMKHYJGDmsQ_BIIqAEwCw Any ideas on how I can resolve this issue?

MOZ Local not picking up citations
Hello - We like using the MOZ dashboard as an indicator of SEO health but have run into an instance where we have two citations with the correct NAP that are not being picked up in the MOZ report. The City Search and InsiderPages listings were build through YEXT and have been up for two months. Is there a way to report a match to MOZ?

Closing Old Locations with Moz Local
I'm sure the answer is pretty simple, but how are we supposed to report an old location as closed in Moz Local? I'd like to mark an old address as closed in all of the major data providers. Of course, I can claim the new location, but I do I need to claim the old location and then somehow mark it closed? When I do a search with Moz, it gives me five results for a doctor who has a single location now (I'm not posting the actual name because I just don't want this forum to appear for searches for the doctor): <address>Dr. Doctor Name, DMD Verified

Local Moz - documentation for Acxiom
Hello there, Moz Local shows that I am not listed with Acxiom, so I went directly to the Acxiom website to add my business listing. During that process, Acxiom asks for business documentation to be uploaded (DBA, license, Federal ID, etc.). If I were using Local Moz to send the data out to the data aggregators, how does it handle this portion (uploading business license, etc. as required)? I'm hoping to use Moz Local for my website clients but need to understand this bit first. Thanks for your help!

Moz Local Problems
On the 9th I tried to get Moz Local, but it would not connect to the right g+ page. I've been told their working on it, but after a week...nothing. Has anyone else had this problem? if so, how long did it take for them to fix it? Thanks, Ruben P.S. Mozzers, if you respond, do not mark it as "answered." I need answers from customers who can give me a timeline from their experience. As nice as you all are, I'm over the generic support responses.
