Unique content for local pages
-
Hi,
working on a website of a retailer who has about 100 shops accross the country and every shop has a page on the corporate website. Some questions about content on these pages:
-
is it ok to add links to the brands they sell in those shops on every business-page? It's a link to the product listing they sell of that brand
-
I wrote a generic text about the business where I can replace city, street it's located, ... Is it ok to use that kind of text on the local business pages?
-
anybody some ideas I can write about on those loca business pages?
-
-
Thanks for the advice!
will work with that. Gonna setup a Google Docs form and send it to the business owners.

I would do this.. if it is not going to be a briarpatch because of changes.
- I wrote a generic text about the business where I can replace city, street it's located, ... Is it ok to use that kind of text on the local business pages?
If that is a small part of that page then this is OK... but if this is the main content of these pages then most of them will be filtered from search results.
I would try very hard to get evergreen content for each location. Maybe you can create a webform that managers at each location can type in something unique about their store. Or call each one and talk with manager to get good unique text on each page.
- anybody some ideas I can write about on those loca business pages?
verbal driving directions... square footage, store exterior description, nearby businesses, write a pitch to nearby universities, large employers, business plazas
whatever you write, keep it evergreen... you don't want to be updating this every few months

Does duplicate content damage ranking in YouTube the same way it does on websites?
I'm asking this question due to the following scenario: When we have videos produced by Third Party video companies they upload the video to their YouTube account before us (the customer), has chance to upload it to ours. If this was an article that was uploaded to the web then the website uploading it first would be classed as the original piece and all other website uploading the article would be considered duplicates and not rank (As I believe). Hence my question, does YouTube work in the same way and hence our videos when searched in YouTube be secondary to our Third Party video companies as they are posting them first? Regards, Tom

Tips for improving google places page
link here When I started working on this page he had multiple incorrect listings. I removed the incorrect ones and created this page. It has been confirmed via postcard and up for several months now. I have the profile filled out to 100% completion. Yet it does not show up very high in local map results. A ton of the business that do show up higher have profiles that are incomplete. Many of them show their address when they do not serve customers at their location. So it is a bit aggravating. Any suggestions to make this profile rank higher? I have been creating more citations through whitespark and working on the actual site itself.

How do you know if you are listed in google+ local?
OK This Google+ local and Google places merge is confusing. My first question is how do you know if your company is listed in Google+ local? I've done a search in Google Plus (logged in with another gmail account) but couldn't find my company on the results. Second question is that I am also not able to be found in maps.google.com, is this related? Thanks

Local SEO - our company is in 2 very different locations
Hi, Our company nlpca.com is in 2 locations. It's doing really well in San Francisco, California But we've opened a 2nd location in Salt Lake City, Utah The problem is that our site is all about San Francisco, California. Utah is just as important as San Francisco to us and we need to start tailoring to both. People from Utah say they are confused because our site is so tailored to California. Even our domain name is the keyword "NLP" combined with the state initial "CA" for California. A new domain is not an option. One thing we are thinking of doing is changing our header to say "The NLP and Coaching Institute and the NLP Institute of California". It would say both of our company names and hopefully the first would catch the Utah people. But I don't think it's just our banner. Can you take a look at our site and tell us how to tailor to both locations and keep our current working optimization for San Francisco, California? Thanks!
