How to add a branch location to Google+ Page
-
I have a verified local Google+ Page all set up for my local business and linked to my website.. it shows up nicely in local results for my city.
Being ambitious I am expanding my presence into another city and would like my website to start showing up in local search for that area as well.
What is the protocol for best results ? Start a new Google+ page or somehow add the branch onto the existing page (although there does not seem to be anywhere for this as the page is a local business and seems to lock it in with only a single address)..

Hi Mark,
Google's rule is 1 listing per physical location. So, if you've opened a new office (congrats!) that means starting a second, totally separate listing on Google. I believe you'll find Google's guidelines to be a big help: https://support.google.com/business/answer/3038177?hl=en
Just be sure:
-
This is a physical location with in-person contact with customers
-
You have a unique local area code phone number for the new branch.
Hope this helps!
