Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I had a problem with Google Places a while back, I ended up calling them and they were actually really helpful. UK number 0800 169 0409

Sounds like your problem may now be fixed, if not hope this helps!

We have just introduced targeted pages for all of our keywords, however their is lots of overlap with existing established pages. For instance for the keyword Small Meeting Rooms we have the new page, titled Small-Meeting-Rooms which is now competing with the more established Meeting-Rooms.

Its early days for both pages, about 2 weeks and 6 weeks respectively. But is it counterproductive to spread out our search juice between lost of pages? Should we just focus on a few?

Any feedback, especially feedback based on real experiences is much appreciated!?

Functionally the Google+ Brand and Business pages seem to be exactly the same, but does having one or the other have an effect on SEO? Is it better to have both?
