The first in Google Places support emails (automated of course) is this the start of Google realising they must do more even for a free non-profit service?
Last week thousands received automated emails from Google regarding their Google Places local business listings.
We too received an email from Google saying our listing review was successful.
Hello,
Thank you for requesting a review of your rejected listing(s). Upon further review, we’ve found that your listing(s) complies with our Google Places quality guidelines. Your listing is now active and eligible to show for searches on Google.
Please note that it may take several weeks before your listings appears in searches as we update our index. You can track the current status of your account on your account dashboard.
Cheers,
The Google Places Team
What happen’s if my listing was rejected?
Don’t panic, don’t go listing crazy stop doing whatever you were thinking of doing. One of the most common mistakes people make is to try to fix their Google Places listing by continually editing. This only sends your data back to Google each time.
But I didn’t request a review of my Places listing!
There are two reasons that you will have received an automated response from Google about your local business listing:
- Listing was previously showing as ‘PENDING’ for breaking the Google Places guidelines or just an automated pending response.
- You updated your business details such as telephone or address which required verification.
