      Hello,

      My client has just opened up two new smaller offices which I now need to have listed on Google Places as the primary office is. How is this done (using best practice)?

      Thanks

        Google Places is now Google My Business (I think---they keep changing the name of it) and those listings are each tied to a person's Google+ profile.

        Go to the individual's G+ profile under which the initial google business page was set up and create a new G+ page for the new location. Doing so will require that you verify the new location's business name address, and telephone and give it a listing on Google maps.

          Chris is absolutely right.

          Here's a tip: For each Google+ Location create a separate landing page on your website to associate it with and in the 'website' section on Google+ use the landing page URL, instead of simply your domain name. This is standard best practice when dealing with multiple business locations.
