Google Maps Verification Postcard

13 May 2010 Categories: SEO

Often I have customers and/or subscribers who need to verify their business’s listing in Google Maps (now known as Google Places) and you can do that 3 ways.

What Google does is they send you a PIN # by one of your business’s listed contact details:

  • Automated Phone Call
  • SMS Text Message
  • Mail (Good old snail mail)

However, sometimes the phone and/or text option does not work or is not available. Usually because if you try to verify via the phone you will only have 3 chances to get it right before it will force you to do the verification via the mail.

The reason I wanted to make this video is because often many small businesses owners can easily mistake this postcard for junk mail.

I wanted you to see what it looks like so you don’t miss it. If you are a business owner you may even want to show your employees this quick video too. This is one postcard you do not want to miss!
