Not sure if he was lucky, but I just tested adding a new business a minute ago and the phone / postacrd verification process is still in place.
Hi Art & Marty-
Art I think that is a function of Google double checking the phone and/or address against previously know addresses & phone numbers....in my case the only phone reference was her home phone...
Was your phone or address previously used for a business?
Mike
Actually it wasn't a new phone number, but I did a ficticous business test with a new phone number and it still promted the verify process.
Art Did the fictitious business have a website associated with it? One theory I have is that the LBC might be checking the whois record.
I will be doing a test in the next week or so to see if I can replicated these results.
Mike
Hi Mike,
No I did not have a website affilliated with the ficticous business. Do you think that could be a factor?
