Adding Tags with Google Places

4 replies
The charge for this Tag is $25 per month Says Google...

Are these tags working for anyone? Is it getting increased exposure or is it just an addition to the listing?

Here are your options:

Choose a tag to make your listing stand out:
Coupon to promote your specialsYou currently do not have a coupon. You can create one in the next step.
  • Coupons are free and printable.
  • Coupons will appear next to your Places listing on Google Maps.
  • If your coupon expires, your tag will instead hightlight your website (or be deactivated if you don't have one).



Post live updates for your businessYou currently do not have a post. Please provide one:
  • Post about events, specials, and more to your place page, as well as your tag.
  • You can update your post at any time in Google Places, and your tag will be updated.
  • Unless updated, a post expires in 30 days. Your tag will instead highlight your website (or be deactivated if you don't have one).

New post (expires in 30 days):

    I've been experimenting with the tags, and while it doesn't (or at least isn't suppose to) change your rankings, it did help increase the ratio of people clicking to go to the listing.

    I don't like that it says "sponsored" though!

      Hi Matt

      We have a client who uses the tags and co-incidence or not his phone rang 30% more????

      You be the judge.

      But we also dislike the tag having "sponsored" on it - sort of makes it look CHEAP and nasty.

      Regards
