Using Moz Local to update Factual data
-
As you may know, for a couple of months now, Factual has been having trouble ingesting the data into their network. This is apparent to other Trusted Data Contributors of Factual.
Is the Moz Local team experiencing similar problems getting business listings added or updated, or can I be assured my local business info will be updated in Factual if I purchase Moz Local service?

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
So, our tools are still able to submit data to Factual successfully. The problem at the moment is that Factual has confirmed with us that their API is unable to provide reliable accuracy checks to Moz Local. Unfortunately this is a limitation of how their database and public directory are structured, and we don't have alternative means of checking accuracy there. Due to this limitation, Factual accuracy reports are simply unreliable.

Hi Sam and thanks for the response. I am still unclear whether or not my local business info will be updated in Factual if I purchase Moz Local service. Can you please answer this question?
