Google Local Business Maps

[nriddle]

Can anyone give me some tips on how to get a client on to this map? I have him #1 in organic rankings, but he doesn't show up on the map. Not sure why? I came to know that One of the main things is to claim the listing. Then edit the listing and get it verified. This will come via an automated call providing you with a Pin # to be entered into the LBC. Complete as much information as you can and do not try to manipulate the titles with keywords as Google disclosed, this won't work. Select relevant categories and get users to post reviews on Google and other user generated content sites Positive reviews are said to influence the results yet I have not really seen this.

What do you think?
