How do you effectively use these and how do they work on the directories?
Thanks!I can provide some general guidance on how placeholders or variables in business descriptions might work based on common practices in local SEO.
Dynamic Content Insertion:
Placeholders like |city| and |name| are likely used for dynamic content insertion. When you use these placeholders, Moz Local may automatically replace them with the actual city name, business name, or other relevant information for each specific directory listing.
Customization for Local SEO:Using placeholders allows you to create a more personalized and targeted business description for each directory. This can be valuable for local SEO because search engines often prioritize localized content.
Consistency Across Directories:Keeping business information consistent across various directories is crucial for local SEO. Placeholders can help you maintain consistency while tailoring content to each platform.
Examples of Usage:For instance, if your business is a chain with multiple locations, you can use a placeholder for the city name to make your descriptions location-specific. Instead of writing separate descriptions for each location, you can create a template with placeholders.
Example: "Visit our |city| location for the best deals in town paraquesirve.mx!"
Implementation on Directories:
Directories that support dynamic content insertion will likely recognize and interpret these placeholders according to their platform's specifications. Moz Local, or any other local SEO tool, would then ensure that the correct information is submitted to each directory during the listing management process.
Best Practices:Ensure that your use of placeholders makes sense in the context of your business descriptions. Avoid overusing them to the point where the content appears robotic or unnatural.
To get specific guidance on how to use placeholders in Moz Local and how they interact with various directories, I recommend checking Moz's official documentation or contacting their support for the most up-to-date and accurate information. -

Foursquare syncing on Moz Local
I searched the boards here and I couldn't find a question about one of my most persistent issues with Moz Local. As an SEO at a small agency, I'm typically managing between 5-6 different Moz Local campaigns from one dashboard. I have found the Foursquare syncing process to be extremely troublesome. Has anyone cracked it? I was only able to get 1 of my 5 current campaigns to sync. And I did it a while ago so I've forgotten how I did it. Here's how the process has been going for me. This is going to be lengthy (sorry) but I want you all to have all the deets. I see an alert in the Foursquare sync box on my left hand menu. I click it. It takes me to this page: https://moz.com/local/bulk/managed/oauth/foursquare. I see a message that reads "4 Listings need access to Foursquare". I click the button in this message that says "+ Foursquare account". I add a personal Foursquare account because apparently you need a pesonal account before you can set up a business account (a la Facebook?). I successfully go through steps to add a Foursquare account. If I click the little gear in the "4 Listings need access to Foursquare" box it shows that I have 3 connected Foursquare accounts. But this appears to be as far as I can go. What's next? Above the "4 Listings need access to Foursquare" box there's another box that says "2 Foursquare account have no matching listings." This box isn't clickable. There appears to be no next step here. I'm super frustrated by this user experience. Am I supposed to creating Foursquare Accounts with the business name some how?

“keyword city” nationally vs “keyword” local in city
I'm tracking keyword “keyword city” nationally and “keyword” locally in city. Ranking for these show different position. Considering that we’re working with local businesses or businesses that service only one city and it’s surrounding areas, what would be the best way to set up campaign? Looking for suggestions. Thank you.
