Google places - multiple clients

[cottamg]

Is there any issue with adding multiple clients websites/locations to our Google Places account?

You can have them all on your Google account. But you can't transfer them in the future (or at least the process is long and not guaranteed).

I strongly advise that you set it up on their account, or at least create a new account which you can then transfer ownership of in the future.

I setup a new Google account for each - I tried multiple in one, and was able to transfer them to a new account without any issue. In the end, I thought it was worth separating them just to keep everything tidy. I also added their Google analytics and webmaster tools to the same account.

How were you able to transfer ownership of a Google Places local listing? As far as I was aware it involved a process that could take months to complete. So would be great to hear your way

I followed the steps I read in some help forums - basically deleting it from one account and then claiming it again. I just had to answer my phone to get a PIN and it all took just a day or two..
