Changing LLC to Inc. and seeing Facebook
-
I'm having 2 possibly related issues with a Moz Local listing.
The first is that the company the listing is for was an LLC when we put the listing up, but have since changed a C corporation, so the name needs to change from ________ LLC to _________, Inc. I've updated the name on their validated Google+ local business listing a few weeks ago, and Moz Local sees that listing, but the name on Moz Local hasn't updated yet.
The second issue is that it's not verifying through Facebook, and the Facebook page that Moz Local CAN see is the wrong one. I edited the listing and manually added the URL to the correct Facebook page a few weeks ago, but that still hasn't gone through either. One last thing, if it makes any difference, is that the company's website does have a link directly to the proper Facebook page.
Hopefully there's a quick and/or easy way to resolve this.
Thanks!

Hey Brian
Thanks for reaching out. To provide more clarity. Facebook and Google URLs cannot be submitted to Moz Local to verify against. Our verification is a query of the business name and zip code directly to those services and they decide which ones to return as the closest match. If you have duplicate Google and Facebook pages, it is best to make sure those are removed prior to publishing a listing through Moz to avoid being validating against the wrong page. It's much easier when there is only one of each available for Google or Facebook to return. Then you only need to update these pages for any changes or updates to the NAP.
If you can send us details of the listing you are referring to, we can take a look at help@moz.com
If you need the listing to verify against a different Facebook or Google URL, please also include those links in the message as well.
Hope this helps!

Unsolved How long do you tell your SEO customers to wait before they start to see actual results from their SEO?
So, this is probably one of the most challenging questions for SEO agencies likes ours to answer. That is how long does it take for a business to see an increase in sales, because of the business investing in organic or local SEO. It ultimately comes down to how competitive the business sector is, we do know that. We are just wondering what various SEO companies tell their clients. Is it for example, they have to wait a minimum of six months of paying for SEO, before they can get the business on page one of Google? Or, instead, do you carry out an SEO audit at the start, and then make an estimate for how long it will take to get the business on page one of Google?

Multiple Locations + Incomplete "Facebook" Listing
Hi! I am in charge of multiple listings for the same business because they have many offices throughout the US. Upon submitting these different locations on Moz Local, I have now run into an issue where all of the listings are not registering their correct Facebook page. On Facebook I have created separate pages for each location (using their location manager tool), but I am unsure on how to connect this to Moz. I have tried submitting the URL of the Facebook page in the "Advanced" tab in the "edit" area, but this does not seem to solve the problem. Any idea on why this is happening, and if there is an easy fix? Thanks everyone!
