I've noticed many of you are reporting that your active business
listings are disappearing from display on Google Maps. In regards to
the post I wrote back in February, that issue has been resolved, and
listings are no longer disappearing from Maps!

On that note, it's easy to tell if your business listing is displaying
- just perform a business search on Maps with the name of your
business in the "What" field and the city/state or zip code in the
"Where" field. For example, check out the place where I work:

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&geocode=&q=Google,+Inc&near=940...

Also, I've noticed that many of the issues you guys are reporting have
a common theme. Please remember to include ONLY address information in
"Address Line 1" and "Address Line 2" when you're creating or editing
your listing from within the Local Business Center. If you put a
business description, or name, or anything that's not an address in
either of the address fields, your listing may not display on Google
Maps.

Best,
Tom
