Got an e-mail from google last night about Googe Places

Your listing on Google Places will soon be updated
Dear Google Places user,

Google will soon update your listing data on our consumer properties such as Google and Google Maps to more accurately reflect the latest information we have about your business.

We use many sources to determine the accuracy of our listing data and to provide the best possible experience for business owners and consumers who use Google and Google Maps to find local information.

Below is a summary of what your listing(s) will contain once it’s updated in the next few weeks. This will be visible on your Place page and listings across Google properties, but it will not be reflected in your Google Places account:

XXXX Information XXXX

If the above information is not accurate, please sign in to Google Places. You may prevent any of these changes from being made on your Place page and listing by selecting "Edit", and then pressing the "Submit" button to confirm the correct information about your business.

If you submit data to Google via a feed, please ensure that the data in your feed is accurate and current. Note that you must update listing data in your feed to prevent changes from being made to the above listings.

Note that if you are an AdWords or AdWords Express customer, your ads will be unaffected by this change and will continue to display the listing information you have provided in Google Places. To manage your online advertisements, please sign into Google Places or Google AdWords.

For more information about updates to claimed listings, please visit: Your listing on Google has changed - Google Places for business Help

Sincerely,
The Google Places Team

I assume this means there will be more automatic updating. Places has been a pain in the ass when trying to optimize for my clients.

It also appears they replaced the text "place page" with "google reviews" if the listing has reviews. (this may have been around for longer, but I just noticed it today)
 


its been hard to create business listings especially if you run two or three yourself from out of your home. one address one business.

In places like NY and London you have massive shared offices... its common to have many business for one address.... and this is a loophole that a lucky few exploit :)
