Moz Local UK - Is Facebook or Google being used to verify NAP?
-
I am using Moz Local UK on behalf of a customer of mine.
There are two verified listings when I do a search for their business name and postcode.
There are a couple of slight variations in the two verified NAPs; One says Road, the other says Rd. One says their county, the other says their district - or East Sussex & Brighton & Hove.
Both their Facebook and Google+ pages say Road and East Sussex.
Both verified listings are wrong and in contrast to any Facebook or Google+ account.
Not too sure where to go with this and would appreciate any advice :0)

Hi Kurt,
Thanks for writing us and I hope this message finds you well! This question can get a bit tricky because there can often be a few facbook or google places pages with information very close to the desired listing can often create some confusion. I would select the facebook and google places partner is the listings that have been verified to see what we are pulling. Here is a screen capture for reference: http://screencast.com/t/m4t4yt7bti5
Also, this help hub article does a pretty good job of breaking down this process here: https://moz.com/help/guides/local/listing
If you can verify the pages that we are pulling from are not the ones associated with your clients business I would be happy to create a ticket with our engineering staff on your behalf.
Let me know what you find and I would be happy to help you with the rest of the process.
Thanks again for being awesome and I look forward to speaking with you soon!

3 Locations = 1 Facebook Page or = 3 Facebook Pages
What is the best practice? I have a client with 3 locations with an actual address and not virtual. He has 1 Facebook page with the address and phone number of the main location. Do I add locations in Facebook on that main FB page or do I create 2 more FB pages to have one for each location?

Difference between 'City' and 'Province' on Moz Local business listing page
Sorry, I'm stuck on this one. I'm trying to clean up my business address on Moz Local as I have a duplicated version that ranks better than my verified listing (which is Fulham Nannies). I'm wondering if the problem arises from my entry on Moz Local's business listing for which I've entered 'London' in both the 'City' and 'Location' fields.. I'm not entirely sure that's correct, or what I should in fact enter in the 'province' field other than what I've got at the moment, I.e. London. Should I put something like 'South West London' for province and keep the city entry as London? I'd really appreciate any guidance anyone might have, thanks in advance.

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"?

Is the Google Local Descriptor compatible with MOZ Local?
If I'm understanding Google correctly, we can use a single descriptor as part of a business name, and to do so, you use the following format in the business name field: Business Name - Descriptor Is this correct? If so, is it not compatible with MOZ Local? I used the format above, and MOZ seems to see the descriptor as part of the business name, and won't let me verify. Is the best approach to using a descriptor to get verified first, then add it? Or will that mess other things up?
