How to get the 'show map of' tag/link in Google search results

[AndyMacLean]

I have 2 clients that have apparently random examples of the 'show map of' link in Google search results. The maps/addresses are accurate and for airports.

They are both aggregators, they service the airports e.g. lax airport shuttle (not actual example) BUT DO NOT have Google Place listings for these pages either manually OR auto populated from Google, DO NOT have the map or address info on the pages that are returned in the search results with the map link.

Does anyone know how this is the case? Its great that this happens for them but id like to know how/why so I can replicate across all their appropriate pages. My understanding was that for this to happen you HAD to have Google Place pages for the appropriate pages (which they cant do as they are aggregators).

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Hi Andy,

Really interesting question! For all intents and purposes, you're right, this really shouldn't be happening. I'd like to do a little research on this and return to this thread. Thanks for asking about this here in Q&A!

Andy, Don't suppose you're at liberty to actually show me the result, are you?
