20. Useful Things To Remember After Merging
Do not use your places dashboard to edit information. Yeah you can only edit inside
of Google+, as Google has very cleared in these instructions.
Social interaction on your Google+ Local listing is one of the major factors that
determines how your listing will rank locally. So after completion of a merge, you
should regularly post engaging content which will make a huge difference in how
your business shows up in Google.
