GetListed.org Vs. Google Places

I've had a little issue understanding GetListed.org and how it directly relates to a google places listing.

For example. If you're on page one of a google places page searching through "chiropractors" lets say. I'm seeing some local listings that have a 72% on GetListed.org, rank higher then listings that have a 92% on GetListed.

What gives? Does this have something to do with reviews, or listing originated date?

    I would say it's a mixture of it all. Reviews, rating, backlinks, citations, etc. To be honest, does anyone really care about some 'rating' though?

    I mean, it might be good to look at to see if you've "filled in all the gaps" but in the end: if you rank at the top or on the first page, that's what counts. Not a score or percentage rating (as you said, higher ranking spots have a lower 'score').

      Well up until I saw the scores somewhat mixed up, I saw it as a great "Low Score" to use to help win over the client. I still will actually. I could be wrong but GetListed.org may only track the amount of major directories the Listing exists in. So either way if a company has a 15%, i can still use this to my advantage. But at least I have a little clarity, thanks.
