Moz Local Verification
-
Why is it that when I submit a listing on Moz Local sometimes it does not pull up my Facebook page to verify and only tries to use the Google+, or vise versa? In this particular instance i want it to use the Facebook page because it has all the correct information and the Google+ page is not, but since the Google+ page has a different name it will not verify and let my listing go through. But it matches everything exactly on the Facebook page but is not even pulling up Facebook to option, instead it wants me to change the name of my business which is not correct.

Hi RustMedia!
When you submit your listing, Moz Local attempts to validate it against both the Google+ Local page and Facebook Place page. If we can only find one of these, then that it the only one we will reference if errors/issues occur. If, in the present instance, you know that your Google+ Local listing is wrong and we are not referencing that we are finding a Facebook Place page, then this may be caused by a variety of issues, including:
-
The Facebook listing is of the wrong type. It must be a Facebook Place (not a social page).
-
There may be some setting on the Facebook page that is preventing us from seeing it, like an age restriction setting or something along those lines.
-
The Facebook page is too new for us to see it.
Those are some common reasons. If you would like private troubleshooting of your issue, please start a Help ticket at:

Hope this helps!

Unsolved Moz Local keeps deleting my suite number
Hi, I entered my address on my Moz Local profile but it keeps either (1) deleting my suite number, or (2) not syncing my suite number at all to any of the websites to which it's connected. I've tried putting the suite number in Address Line 1 with the address, and by itself in Address Line 2. I've also tried typing out Suite, Ste., STE, STE., etc. - nothing works and the suite number keeps getting deleted. Very frustrated, please help.

Moz Local - Hours
I didn't see this previously posted so regrets if it's been asked. I have a local client that runs a bar/restaurant open until 1 a.m. In setting up hours in the Moz Local tool, the day ends at midnight. What's the best way, using the tool, to display "4 p.m. - 1 a.m"?

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!

How long does it take for the MOZ Local to update?
Hello, I use MOZ local to keep track of major citations for 30+ clients. Sometimes, it happens that I would be working on a new company, which does not have any significant number of active citations. And MOZ local does not seem to update very often, when I have already created citations for that particular new company. Can anyone update me about, what is the normal timeline for the MOZ Local to update new citations? I am using this URL to keep track of my company citation ranks: moz.com/local/search. Thank you in advance.

Moz Local Validation
I am trying to list my business under Moz Local. I have filled out all of the documentation and had no errors. However I am stuck on Validation. It says "We were unable to validate the following listings on either Google or Facebook Places." I have checked both my google and facebook pages they are up to date with the most current address. Any ideas where the problem may be?
