In the last page of signup process google ask for verifying your business with phone or post card. You need to have an address or phone on your targeted place. That's why it doesn't seem good for affiliate sites. For example I am located in a different country than the one I target with my site.
Peole have used this for several years - not something I just invented. I just shared it - and you guys don't seem to understand the value.
Well I can see the OP's point. In a biz aspect actually Google is helping you a lot. Maybe you want to sell some tools at your place. This is a great way to target local traffic without any major SEO or cost needed.
I can definitely see the benefits for this - thanks for sharing. I'm having a problem though, my business is in Cancun Mexico. And when I search for a keyword like "Cancun Vacations" local business results do come up, however when I go to the "add" page Mexico is not on the list - I wonder how they managed to list there business?? Any ideas?
Agreed. Some people today definitely don't get the meaning of the words But this "trick" is useless for people who live in "countries with not so much Internet activity" or poor internet sales.
