What do I do if the business listed in Moz Local Business Listing for Yellow Pages is wrong?
-
Hey there!
I have a business listing set up in Moz Local. The system seems to have accurately found the business on most networks, but on Yellow Pages, it has a completely different business listed (my business is a Pilates studio and it has a soccer club listed). What are the steps I can take to fix this? I can claim my listing on Yellow Pages, but after I do that, how does Moz Local associate the two?
Thanks,

Hi there Eric!
The Yellowpages listing we are associating with your Moz Local listing is simply a best-match search for that site. Often this means we're not seeing a better match in the Yellowpages backend at that time. This can happen for a number of reasons, including the page not being available in the Yellowpages API, or updates not yet taking affect in their backend. We're constantly listening for matches on that site, so your best bet is make sure the YP listing matches your Moz listing exactly. Unfortunately, since we're not directly partnered with YP, there's not much we can do to force the listing to surface from our end. If you know it's correct but we can't pick it up, the only real downside is a slight ding to your listing score.
I hope that clarifies things!

Unsolved can I set up a white-labeled version of Moz local
I am wondering if Moz Pro account users have the option to set up a white-labeled version of the Moz Local Listings Checker? And if so, how? It would be an excellent tool to entice customers to sign up for our services.

If I "close" a duplicate listing on Factual, Acxiom, SuperPages, Bing or Localeze, what exactly happens?
When I click "close" for a duplicate location with wrong information, does it mark that location as PERMANENTLY CLOSED on the website (factual, acxiom, etc), or does it delete it from that website? Additionally, once that location on that site is marked as permanently closed or deleted, does Moz Local then re-add the correct information to that site? Thanks!!!

Should I leave the updating to Moz Local (App) or do it myself?
Hello. I am using the Moz Local service to submit my site to directories. There seems to be a bit of conflicting information/Instructions. Do I just sit back and let Moz continue with providing updates to the sites, or do I have to manually go in to each of the partner sites to make sure that they are all updated correctly? I seem to remember reading one instruction telling me to let Moz do it, and another saying that I should be doing it. There are missing categories on some of the sites, which I am being told to make sure are correct, whilst the Moz Local site is saying 'Update in progress'. I am a bit confused :0)
