I’m sure many people have been incredibly frustrated by google + local / business / places or (whatever they are called now) listings, even just the constant name changes are frustrating. I am trying to get the listing to appear for this company http://www.targethrdelivery.co.uk/ A week ago if you typed ‘target hr delivery’ into google the listing would appear at the top right of the SERPS with the small google + listing underneath the serp result but it has since dissappeared.
If you type in ‘target hr delivery nottingham’ it appears as we want it but how can I get it to appear again just by typing the company name in and not nottingham?
I am in nottingham and if I type in widasearch for instance without the word nottingham their listing comes up so that is what I’m trying to achieve for target hr delivery
Well… if the name of the city is being included in the search phrase, it should normally show the local listings. Or at leas that’s how it is for cities in the United States normally.
Well their are so many factors which influence the Local listing ranking.

Local Review by the customer
No. of Likes and Dislike
Social Media Presence (Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn)
These are main factors which are important for the local listing. If you want to get higher ranking then focus in these activity. Because Google monitors such information and provide you ranking according to your social presence.
