Google Places Optimization/Ranking

[localdominator]

GP has made a lot of recent changes. Some have seen increase/decreasing traffic. How has it affected you or your clients? Thoughts on how to combat/adjust to the new developments...?:xmas-smiley-016:

Still doesn't seem implemented properly

if you remove an "s" off a keyword say builders to builder, you can end up seeing the old system and a different version of rankings... same thing if you switch from .com to .ca / others

That is very interesting. I have also noticed that it is taking slightly longer to get clients up and running on the front page even though it is now all local results with google places.
