      Hi,

      When you search "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney", the first organic listing is Tyler and Wilson.  My listing comes up fourth.  My question is, how does Tyler and Wilson get their address AND google + page listed right below search result.  No one else gets that.  I included a screenshot so u see what I mean.  How can I add that?

        I've been working on a research study for Local search results, and submitted it to Moz last week.  So I was able to take a look and see a few things that correlate with the results.

        Here's what I'm seeing as far as search rankings (for me... might be different for you; I'm in Boulder, Colorado)

        Google search for: "Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney"

        1. James Blatt

        1st ranked site has 1 additional photograph on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.

        2. Gregory Caplan
        2nd ranked site has 4 additional photograhps on their Google+ page, uploaded by the Google+ page owner.

        Also has 27 Google Reviews and a 4.8 star rating.

        3. Stephen Rodriguez
        3rd ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google+ page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.

        4. Marks & Brooklier
        4th ranked site has no images uploaded to their Google page; the photo displayed is scrapped by Google from their home page.

        5. California Criminal Defense Center

        The 5th ranked site has one image, but was not uploaded by the Google + page owner

        That said, this result has a domain name match to the keywords, plus 5 Google reviews and a 4.7 star rating.

        Not that this is the end-all-be all; other things like page rank, inbound links, age of the domain and other things matter.

        But if it were me and my client, I'd highly recommend getting control over the page and adding appropriate photos... even if they are from the Website.

        Plus, I'd try to get a few Google reviews from past clients.  Especially those who didn't wind up in jail.

          OK, Forgive me if I am wrong.

          But I think the question you are asking is less of a technical one.

          From a quick search it would seem you have no Google Local account and that you may be unfamiliar with Google Local? Its like Google's version of the yellow pages directory.

          All you have to do is create an account at the link below

          https://support.google.com/plus/answer/1713911?hl=en

          This will then associate your website with your local listing and Google will be able to apply your address and other features to your search results.

          Is that what you where asking about?
