Can I sync our local listing in Moz with a Google My Busines listing when there are multiple GMB listings?
-
We working a healthcare facility that has over 30 listings set up in Google My Business, individual listings for each doctor and other healthcare professionals. We are trying to sync with Google My Business, but continue to receive a message about being unable to validate the listing. We've ensured that the information matches in each listing. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, any advice on how to get it to sync. I've looked through support documents and not found anything that has helped.

Hi there! Sorry for the trouble.
Moz Local's validation system still uses Google Places, not GMB directly. Each location must be verified in Google Places (most easily checked on Google Maps) for Moz Local validate the NAP details.
GMB locations are not public-facing, they have details that only you as the owner/manager can see. So until any new changes are verified on Google Maps, they aren't detectable by Moz Local's validation system.
If you're still not sure why your location is not detectable as a validation source, check out the requirements as listed on this page: https://moz.com/help/guides/local/listing#frequently-asked-questions
If you're still unsure, feel free to reach out to us at help@moz.com and we can take a look!

How does Moz Local work with business that don't have a physical location? (e.g., handyman, locksmith, etc.)
I'm wondering how Moz Local will handle a business that doesn't want to publicly display an address. A handyman, landscaper, or locksmith might want to do something like this. Is it easily handled or do you have to manually try to "work around" to hide the address on sites that let you? Thanks!

Moz Local Form Clarification
For Operating hours it's not clear (at least to me) what to do if you're not open at all on a day, like Saturday and Sunday. Do I just not put down the 1 and the 7 or add them with 0's. Please provide an example, so I can just cut and paste, if you don't mind. Thanks Moz, Ruben

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
