Edit a listing on Google Maps

Dec 10 2008

Another thing I’ve learned with Christie’s site is how to edit your Google maps listing. In her case, the wrong address was displayed. She wanted to know how to correct that. After a bit of online sleuthing, I found that question had been answered on Google Help. To add a new listing or correct a current listing, you’ll need to login to the Google Business Center. If you don’t have an account there, you can create one. You enter your information and must validate it by receiving a phone call to your business phone (you can also get a postcard, but I’m not sure how long that takes). Phone verification is almost instant and completely automated. You enter the PIN number they give you on the screen. Then, it tells you your listing will be posted/edited in 1 business day. I went ahead and did my own listing today to see how it all works. If I find the listing tomorrow, I’ll post it here.
