Also, yeah I’m a noob but can someone clarify something else? On those screenshots of the google maps results, underneath where it says “Overview”, “Review” and “Webpages” and actually tells how many webpages link to the site, my google maps results do not show that information. How do I get that? I want it. Also, are those websites linking to the business’s WEBSITE or to the Google Maps AD???? If so, how do they link to the Google Maps ad when it’s not really a url it’s only a file on a website. Thanks

Are you suggesting that Google Maps searches out businesses who they find on the internet and makes the maps themselves from the listings? The only way to appear on google maps that I know of is to go to local business center and actually add your business, in which case YOU are the one putting your business name down. Am I understanding you right that a telephone operator listing a business line under an incorrect spelling, and thus having it listed in allpages under an incorrect spelling is responsible for this? And that google crawls Allpages and puts a map up of businesses it finds?? I’m lost now. This article threw me. I’m just learning this stuff. I know that can’t be right. Please someone clarify. Thanks
