Is Google Places Now Blocking Local Business Listings Displaying P.O. Box Numbers?
If you are a local business and wish to promote your website via your free listing in Google Places, it is important that your website displays the correct physical address, where your business is located, rather than using a P.O. Box number.
P.O. Box numbers are a popular option for self employed individuals such as plumbers, electricians and painters etc., who generally work out of a home office and prefer not to publish their home address.
Unfortunately Google will no longer accept free company listings in Google Places from businesses who only display a P.O. Box number on their website.
