I know you can add your business to Google places and show up when someone searches Miami pizza. When I search for these local businesses, I notice there is one paid search at the top and 2 at the bottom of the A) B) C) list. I want to get on this list as a paid search. I am assuming this is part of adwords, but am not sure how to get my ads to show here. Does anyone have any experience with these ads? I think these would be more effective for my niche.
You should sign up in google.com/lbc. You might get information about it. I will also check whether there is such kind of thing...!
You can link your Google Place account with Google Adwords from "Ad extensions" section. Its hidden by default. You can click the "down arrow" right beside "Networks" to activate that tab.
