This article is just the tip of the iceberg for Google rankings. Many of the things listed in this article for Google’s business listing center also apply to the way it ranks businesses on external sites like YouTube, Twitter, etc. Also reinforces the information from your previous post “Google… Changing the Face of Offline Consulting”
Awesome & timely information. Thanks

Glad you liked it Jerry! Cool! Maria Gudelis
Good article but only a basic overview of what’s required to optimize your local biz map listing. The fact is that if a biz is not in the 10 box they might as well not be listed at all (few people click on “more results”). There’s actually a lot more that can be done to keep a listing in the 10 box and especially in the top three. The first step is to have a website! Why? Because you don’t even need a website to be listed. BUT, a biz with a website will knock down one that doesn’t have one!
