it&#039;s not going to be an overnight or even over a few months appearance I&#039;m sorry to say.  As there are so many way to optimize (over 200), continue to do all that you can and eventually the places account will improve.

		<description><![CDATA[I have added &quot;of Tulsa&quot; or &quot;, Tulsa, OK&quot; 
to the business names of 2 of the listing that I manage 
I know that is against the new guidelines, but one of these listings has been that way for over 2 years.

I added a new client right about the time that the November change occurred.
They had an existing listing with a different version of the address and 2 phone numbers that were run together without spaces or hyphens.
I verified that one by mail and deleted it, then made a new one.

I verified the new listing but it did not show as active for about a week.
I got impatient and turned on the old listing for a few days because it was showing in the results, but then decided I should get some patience and  turned it back off.
The new one did finally show active.

While working on the new listing, I had changed the address to &quot;court&quot; from &quot;ct.&quot;, and without thinking hit submit, and that generated the need for a new mail verification.
So I have verified the old listing once, and the new listing 2 times.
 
I added &quot;of Tulsa&quot; to their business name. (I know, bad huh!)
It shows up in a nearby city where the business is actually located, but they need to show up in Tulsa results.

The problem is the no impressions or stats thing.
There are some actions however.
Is this some level of purgatory because of the geo keyword or maybe 
because of too many verifications?]]></description>
