Microformats/ Snippets and local SEO

[stereo69]

Hello,

In several post and also in the webinar "all about google places" it is recomended to use Microformats to format the things like "Business Name", Adress, Phone , etc

Apart from using ths microformats on the product/corporate page footer and contact form,

would you recomend to also use microformats on blog and 3rd party website when mentioning the corporate contact details in order to increase the citation value ?

If the 3rd party will allow for it, then this is definitely recommended. Most local search platforms do this (Yelp, YP, etc). But if the 3rd party will not allow you to markup your NAP on your own, just having the data consistent will be beneficial to you.
