Quick Question

I submitted information for my business to be listed about 2-3 weeks ago and my company still isn't showing up? Is there anyway to speed up up this process and how long does it usually take to for a listing to show up?

  • Hi

    It depends on what you mean by "submitted" your info.

    Generally if it's new then it could take 2 -3 weeks to turn up but with the changes that Google implemented in the past week that may not be the case.

    Plus you may also need a website now and if you don't have one in the listing it may not carry too much weight.

    Also, from here on in you will need to get your website backlinked so that it fits in with the new "merged" approach that Google is taking.

    If you want to let us know the name we can check it out for you.

  • When i say submitted i guess i mean, I went to the google places home page and clicked the "List Your Business" button and began to fill out the requested information.

    Also, regarding to your comment about having a website, if i didn't submit a website with the information, will that effect how long it takes to show up? Once it does show up, can i edit my account info to say that I do have a website?

      As long as the entry indicated it was "active" all you can do is wait.

      If it gave you the red flag then you would need to fix whatever they needed fixed.

      You can add the website now if you wish that might help but given it's only a couple of weeks you may just need to be patient.

  • thanks i really appreciate it
  • I'm finding the length of time a Google Places listings "shows up" or ranks is dependent on the genre and the competition

    some "low hanging fruit" (easy to rank due to almost no competition) genres are incredibly easy.

    other genres with stiff competition could take several weeks to begin to rank
