Google has announced today, a change in name for their Local Business Center facility to Google Places. Last year they launched Place Pages which is how businesses can be found, and Google feel a stronger link by using Google Place identity instead.
There are some new tools that feature on the site:
- a business can submit a service area that they cover in travelling to their customers
- the facility to keep your address private if you have a business without an office
- simpler advertising packages
- customers can download coupons from the site which they can bring to your business
- select businesses will qualify for a free photographic portfolio of their business interior
- some businesses can also upload to their profile, or Place Page, updates on their services
- there is a dashboard for updating your profile within Google Pages which includes analytics on traffic to your business
