Google Places

Jun 17, 2010   //   by Kieran   //   Website Design  //  No Comments

Google Local Business has now been renamed and rebranded.  It brings with a number of new features such as allowing you to see the number of Impressions and actions over the past number of days.

A lot of the additional features such as coupons and QR code generators are only currently available in the US but features such as live updates bring a micro blogging feel to the listing service and may give further strength to the SERPS impact of this for you and your business.

If you have not created a Google Places account you should do and choose your categories carefully to allow you feature for your niche.
