MOZ Local "unable to validate the following listings with Google or Facebook" ?

[SOtBOrlando]

I am trying to upload my local csv file and I have no errors. I have a listing on Google + and Facebook and they look like they match the file exactly. I do not want to setup another list to create duplicates. What do i do?

Any help please

Hey Jeremy

I think the problem is that your Google+ page needs to be a business page and it also needs the address of the business added there.

You can make a business page here: http://www.google.com/business/

Google will have to verify that you are at that address and then it will take some time to update after that, so if you re-upload the CSV and it's still telling you that, it might just take some time for everything to show that it is in order.

Hope that helps!

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the trouble with Moz Local! I think I found the issues here :).

For Google+, we'll need you to be registered as a 'verified local business' in order to show up in the Moz Local system. Here's a link to get that process started: https://support.google.com/business/answer/2911778?hl=en&ref_topic=4596754

On Facebook, it looks like your page's name is listed as 'SearchOutsidethebox.com by Jeremy Wood', whereas on Moz Local your name is listed as 'SearchOutsidetheBox.com'. You'll just want to make sure that those match up as well, and we should be able to find the page in no time!

I hope this helps! Enjoy your day, and keep on Mozzing on!
