Search term: golf carts troy MI
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=golf+carts+Troy,+M... Kerby Bailey & Associates is a security and investigation company and
has nothing to do with golf carts. We have discovered other random
search terms recently where they are inappropriately listed, but this
is the first one I have saved. Leads me to suspect either spam or
someone with malicious intent.
Thanks for investigating!

i am curious if you could give us a more clear cut guideline for what
you are looking for so we submit only appropriate companies. I tried
to look in the blogs and noticed one for tire rack which seemed to be
okay assuming they actually had all of the locations listed. and
others i noticed were putting in multiple listings with a web page
address that helped their ranking that it took you to only to click on
any link in that site and be taken to another site that was actually
their homepage. any basic clarification to look for would be great so
people don't waste your time.

Google misinterprets those many references and assumes that your
business is about Golf Carts.
I also noticed that you have not actually edited your business record
in the Local Business Center. I would go into your record and select
the "edit this listing" link (http://www.google.com/local/add/choice? hl=en&gl=US&latlng=42601620,-83170439,10244442736450306478&q=golf+carts

business.
Google may still show you in wrong categories but the chances are much
less.

Hello - many limousine keywords result in listings that are filling up
with spam. In these cases there are multiple instances of the same
listing where the title is only keywords and telephone numbers.
Hi jen
My search term locksmith in Burlingame
http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tab=wl Most of these other locksmiths are posting phony addresses I’ve gone
to these address there is no actual company there. Please also search
your google search returns for this and others under locksmith scam
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19714358/ these people post multiple pages
that all go to out of state call centers. It’s unfair to local
businesses that have real locations. You should only post companies
that answer the post cards not phone numbers that way it would prove
that their really at that address. Or else everyone that has alot of
phone lines can make up names and add any phony address in the city
they want. At least the newspapers only permit licensed companies to
place adds. We have a business license and locksmith license please
remove these phony adds you will find them nationwide but the only
ones affecting me are the sf peninsula cities you are a mountain view
company you owe it to the local home owners. I dare u to go to some of
the locksmith addresses on google maps for locksmiths in Mountain View
and see how many are real probably less then 10%. I’ve even have them
place there web address on my site I don’t know how they did that
.

search term: seo denver co
link to search results: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=seo+denver+co&btnG=Search the first two listings are for the same company they have one
location. all they did was change their phone number and address so
they could have more than one listing. i drove past these locations
and saw no business there. in addition the name of the company is
10kthings not "10kthings - SEO - PPC - Web design - Denver Internet
Marketing" or the similar one fro the other listing i saw there.

With Public Storage dominating Google maps I'm wondering, is that what
Google wants? I know this isn't classified as map spam but I do want
to raise the question. I also noticed on the website of Public
Storage they have Geo reference -
http://www.publicstorage.com/local/city.aspx?txtLocalState=CA&txtLoca... This page is only found in the site map and they have made this style
of page for every city they have facilities in. I am implementing this
Geo Reference style page for one of my clients and wonder if this is
what gets the placement for Public Storage.
1. paintball largo, fl
2. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=paintball+largo%2C+fl 3. a. Gladiator Paintball is actually no longer in business. They went
defunct in 2006.
b. Florida Paintball Center is now PSI Xtreme Sports (now updated
and listed under my google account).
Please remove both listings. Thank you.

Hello - as a followup: looks like some changes were made. Primarily,
duplicate listings were removed. But, spam "keyword-stuffed" business
names are still prominent - in fact, are the most prominent.
And unfortunately, one of the legitimate listings (Pinnacle Limousine)
has dropped off the displayed listings in this latest shuffle, despite
the fact that some duplicate listings no longer take valuable space.
Spam business-name listings for the keyword "limo NYC":

ones everyday??
why does google let companies like this spam so much? can they ban the
spammers IP adress or something. i also noticed these litsings were
reported on the 15th how long does it take the google team to get rid
of the listings? If they are spamming on merchant cirle how do you
prevent them from spamming on google since you have a direct feed from
them?

I am gusseing in this case they were all created under a few accounts
or maybe just one account. I can only assume google can dellete all of
the listings one account has created. however how do they deal with
someone spamming merchant circle or other companies like them that
they get feeds from?

earn it anyways. Type: "Law Offices of Michael P. Ehline" in local
search and you will see almost every law firm in LA is benefiting from
my data. (Note my firm is blocked)

Your search terms - photography by laura tulsa oklahoma
A link to your search results -
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=photography+by+laura+tulsa+oklah... A short description of why you believe this is spam - The company is
correct, but the link on the listing goes to another website- The link
needs to be fixed as it is if you click on "Details or "more".

Still cannot change the link on the main page, we did create an
account with this company and "claim" the listing but it still gave no
options to change the main website link on the main google listings....
I just checked that search and now they have about 8000 listings
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl they msut be making new ones
each day or have a marking company doing this for them I can see why
you have had such a lose in business with a spammer like that out
there.
