How important is a high listing score in getlisted.org?

[seomn]

I checked Moz out on getlisted and found a score of 28%. I believe this is telling me that Moz does not consider this an important piece(getlisted.org) to a local marketing strategy.

Also(as you can see in the image) getlisted shows missing listings when the listings are actually with these directory providers. (Not just Moz, but other companies I do local marketing for.)

Plus I've noticed that at the bottom of the page the "unable to contact", Bing has been there for a long time. Is this going to be fixed?

My clients know about getlisted.org and they are looking to me for answers on how to get them a higher listing score. Is this a tool that can assist in showing clients how well their listings are showing in local marketing or not?

Hey AJ,

I am forwarding this along to our engineering department.  We'll take a look on Monday & let you know about the 'unable to contact' errors.

As far as Moz in particular, we're not really a brick-and-mortar company, so Local Listings are not (and shouldn't be) a priority for our marketing department.  Having said that, my associate Miriam Ellis is working on a guide to claiming listings for our Portland office as we speak, to practice what we preach :).  That should be out later this summer.

Thanks for commenting!
