Deleting duplicate listings in MOZ LOCAL
-
Hey guys,
Is there ever any circumstance you don't want to request removal of duplicate listings in MOZ Local?
Thanks in advance

Thanks David,
I most of my clients are professionals, so I get several listings for the practice name and then several listings for each doctor plus the practice name. I think the information is being scrapped from some professional association groups. New ones keep popping up each month, mainly coming from Yahoo and its affiliates.

Hi Richard
Only if the duplicate in question is a false positive, meaning it is incorrectly being flagged if it is for an entirely different location. I'm not sure how many Local members read this section of the forum but you may receive more clarification from our Local Strategy forum here: http://moz.com/community/q/local-listings
Hope this helps!

Does Moz Local update/correct business listings?
Moz Local distributes your business listing to the important data providers, but what if your business information is already in their database? Does Moz Local update this info for me, or am I still required to go through the manual process of doing this myself on the data providers website (for example, Yelp or Hotfrog)?

Moz Local not finding Facebook page
I've got a listing on Moz Local - www.carolinasmilesnc.com. It finds most listings OK. When looking for other listing services where it locates a matching listing, it cannot seem to find the Facebook page. They have identical phone numbers as what we submitted (verified by Google) as well as the street address. We keyed in the Facebook link in the details of the listing for Moz Local. Moz Local only shows an option to create a page. How do I get it to connect to the existing and very robust Facebook page?

How Can We Get Listed On Acxiom?
We subscribe to MOZ local. We are listed on all major directories except for Acxiom. Will MOZ Local eventually distribute our information to Acxiom? We have subscribed for about a month. Is there a faster way to get listed on Axciom? Thanks, Alan

It's been 1 year, why hasn't our Moz Local completion percent improved?
Our listing is about to renew, but the completion percentage has not improved since the first month we started with Moz twelve months ago. I see in Moz there are many duplicate listings for this business. I was under the impression that Moz was handling this as part of the yearly fee; is that correct? If not, what needs to be done to resolve these issues and make sure our listings are complete and accurate?

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?

Linking Google Business Page to Moz Local?
I'm working on updating an existing Moz Local account, and one of the listings says that there is "No listing found on Google." However, there is a Google Business page for this listing, it just isn't linked to my account. And the only option Moz gives me is to "create listing" on Google, which takes me to the page to create a Google business listing. So my question is this: how do I link an existing Google Business page to a Moz local listing that is already mostly set up?
