Hey SEOs, If Google Maps Calls, Don’t Answer

The caller-ID said “Google, Inc.” I was intrigued.

The voice on the other line asked if I “serviced clients at this address”. I was busy servicing a client with the other hand (on the phone – get your mind out of the gutter) so I said that my clients were all over the world, which they are, including within a 5-mile radius of my location.

Then I asked the voice who she was and why she was calling. She said she was with Google Maps and they were just doing some quality checks. I had to go – see client servicing action above – and hung up.

Next thing you know I no longer have a listing in Google Maps:

That’s what I call a service without a happy ending.
