Google Places not appearing

[AustinBarton]

is it possible to be sandboxed for a google places page? one of our clinics has a places page, and it was doing fine (http://www.google.com/maps/place?cid=5542269234389030356) but now whenever we set our location to trinity,fl and try to search for weight loss, weight loss trinity, etc.. it doesnt come up. it only comes up if we search medi weight loss trinity. also, when we go into our google places dashboard and try to edit the pictures, it doesnt show the same pictures on the actual locations page. for example, in our dashboard we have 5 pictures, but on the actual places page, 3 pictures are showing (none of which are in our dashboard). any ideas?

Hi Austin,

I had a similar problem with the Google Places listing for our office in Australia. The office never appeared on Google Maps or Google Places and it kept telling me the address was incorrect or the location on the map was incorrect. The address in the listing was correct and the location on the Google map was correct so I ended up creating a new listing and removing the old listing and it works fine now. My problem is a little different than your problem but you may want to create a new listing for the clinic.

Austin,

Google will delete listings and "sandbox" you if you break their Google places rules and regulations. From looking at your listing, I can only pin-point a couple of things that Google may not like. First, in you categories you have "Palm Harbor Weight Loss" - you should not have a city of state in any of your categories. Also, make sure that you only have one category per category slot. Make sure that your images are the right size, usually under 120 width will work. On your website, I would add the name of the company (Medi-Weightloss Clinics) just as it reads on Google Maps on top of your address on the top right in locations. I would embed the Google Map into the locations page. I also would add more categories, you currently only have three.  Hope this helps.
