      I have been working on a project, this is a local business. Recently we migrate the site, to a new domain name

      • http://www.oldwebsite.com
      • https://www.newwebsite.com

      I use Moz Local and Moz Pro to track the site Performance. Obviously when we updated the domain name the local score when from 89 to 60.

      So my question

      1. How many time takes to Moz Local to update the info for the main partners?
      2. If I claim a listing on a third party website, and import that listing, how many time is going to take to update? I mean there's a lot of local directories out there, and I want to build business profiles with links pointing to my site.
      3. What happens to the Mian Partners, Example I have control over the Bing Places Account. What do I need to do, 1 update the info manually or Moz local will synchronize the info

      Thanks for your help

        Update from the Moz Support Team: Please read our update timeframes guide for avoiding delay.

        Hey there,
        Tawny from Moz's Help Team here.

        Moz Local is a real-time service that instantly distributes your business listing data to both data aggregators and online directories. Each of our distribution partners has their own approach for processing new and updated listings on their platform. As part of our active listing management process, we continuously verify the accuracy of each listing down to the Name, Address, Phone Number and URL across our entire partner network. We don't consider your listing to be completely accurate until a customer would find it that way.

        For most partners, new data is published within 4-5 days, and the majority becomes fully accurate within a few weeks. Given how closely we track accuracy, we have seen instances where some listings have taken as much as 8-12 weeks to become fully accurate. If you're noticing an unusual delay, please let us know at help@moz.com so we can take a look at your account and see if there is anything causing the delay.

        If you claim a listing on a third-party site that isn't one of our direct partners, it's up to their system to determine how long it will take for your business information to become accurate there. You'll need to work with that third-party site directly.

        Moz Local should sync that info for you automatically, as long as it's one of our partners! Here is a full list of the partners that are currently supported for US business listings:

        Infogroup
        Acxiom
        Neustar/Localeze
        Factual
        Foursquare
        Superpages (1st Tier)
        Best of the Web (2nd Tier)
        Citysearch
        CityGrid
        Insiderpages
        Hotfrog
        Bing
        Apple
        HERE
        TomTom
        NavMii

        We focus on top-tier data aggregators with the idea that your data will naturally trickle down throughout the local search ecosystem. And you can see the big picture of the Local Ecosystem here: https://moz.com/learn/local/local-search-data-us

        If there's anything else you need, just let us know — feel free to reach out to us at help@moz.com.
