Updated validation changes
-
I want to submit a listing, but the validation screen indicated Google has an incorrect phone number (which was only listed as an alternate contact number). I've removed the number from the Google My Business page, but the correction is not listed in the Moz Local Validation page.
What should I do to get the updated Google listing to be recognized by the Moz validation process?
Thanks!

Thanks Abe. I'll set a reminder to check it again next Friday and see how it looks then.
Appreciate your response!

Hey there Mike, thanks for reaching out to us! Once you've updated the phone number on your facebook local business and Google places pages (must have a local phone number listed visibly on those pages), we should be able to catch those changes when Google and FB update their public API (usually 5-7 days). Once we get that data back from them, you will be able to make the changes in your listing in Moz Local

Moz Local and Apple Maps: How does the listing update work?
Hello, how are apple maps updated via Moz Local? We have a client who changed their business name within the last six months. We noticed one of the few items that has not changed to date within their Moz dashboard is the name of the business on Apple Maps. In the Accuracy grid, the only item not checked within the Apple Maps column is the business name. Does anyone know how this process works within the Moz Local portal? Is there something we can do to advance the name change on our end? Thank you.

Should I leave the updating to Moz Local (App) or do it myself?
Hello. I am using the Moz Local service to submit my site to directories. There seems to be a bit of conflicting information/Instructions. Do I just sit back and let Moz continue with providing updates to the sites, or do I have to manually go in to each of the partner sites to make sure that they are all updated correctly? I seem to remember reading one instruction telling me to let Moz do it, and another saying that I should be doing it. There are missing categories on some of the sites, which I am being told to make sure are correct, whilst the Moz Local site is saying 'Update in progress'. I am a bit confused :0)

Client had address change in Google
They successfully changed their Google+ local address. I have their listing in the Moz Local product. How should I handle the address change? Will it find it on its own? I noticed with another client it noticed a name change that occurred and automatically updated the listing. Does it do this with address change? Thanks!

How does the "Update Listing" in the InComplete section of Moz Local work?
I know it takes you to the listing site. Do you then have to create an account and claim the listing and then update it there? Does claiming the listing lose the connection with Moz Local? I've been spending a lot of time claiming listings and wondering if that's correct or not. Thanks Dana
