I am working with an Insurance agent and he has Google Alerts setup on his company name. He has received two alerts where his name only appears in the URL. If you click the links they bring you to a competitor's Yahoo Local profile page with their name and info. If you look at the URL it has his company's name and city in the URL.
Could a competitor be claiming his listings and then changing the business name, phone, address and URL to their own? Does the URL on Yahoo Local listings stay the same after a business changes their name?
This has happened with two of his listings in two different cities, he has two offices in one state. But not with the same competitor, it has happened with two different companies.
Any idea what could be happening? I would be happy to PM the URLS, I just don't want to post them publicly here.
Thanks!
