MOZ Local "unable to validate the following listings with Google or Facebook" ?
-
I am trying to upload my local csv file and I have no errors. I have a listing on Google + and Facebook and they look like they match the file exactly. I do not want to setup another list to create duplicates. What do i do?
Any help please

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the trouble with Moz Local! I think I found the issues here :).
For Google+, we'll need you to be registered as a 'verified local business' in order to show up in the Moz Local system. Here's a link to get that process started: https://support.google.com/business/answer/2911778?hl=en&ref_topic=4596754
On Facebook, it looks like your page's name is listed as 'SearchOutsidethebox.com by Jeremy Wood', whereas on Moz Local your name is listed as 'SearchOutsidetheBox.com'. You'll just want to make sure that those match up as well, and we should be able to find the page in no time!
I hope this helps! Enjoy your day, and keep on Mozzing on!

Hey Jeremy
I think the problem is that your Google+ page needs to be a business page and it also needs the address of the business added there.
You can make a business page here: http://www.google.com/business/
Google will have to verify that you are at that address and then it will take some time to update after that, so if you re-upload the CSV and it's still telling you that, it might just take some time for everything to show that it is in order.
Hope that helps!

I signed up for Moz Local with an annual subscription and I don't have a store front, so most of it is not relevant to me.

More than one set of hours per day in Moz Local
Is it possible to specify more than one sets of hours in Moz Local? For example, one of my clients is open 9:00-11:00am and 2:00-6:30pm one day a week. Can we include this in the hours field? They also have different hours for some of their staff vs others. I know that part is too complicated! I hope we can at least do two sets of open/close hours for one day, though. Has anyone done this successfully?

With Moz Local rolling out today, will there be a reporting option for local, similar to the current moz reporting?
Thank you for creating a great method for adding local business information to the major data aggregators. Are there plans to create reporting for local, in the future? I'd love to keep my reporting all in one location. Thanks, Kathy
