Ahh.. Quite nice when Google does exactly what you want. If only all our customers could get such exclusivity!What we’re seeing here is the result of an exact name match combined with ambiguity on the geomodifier. The "New Orleans" token is not deemed as a specific location landmark. This used to occur more frequently in Google; but as they’ve expanded in understanding more geographical identifiers, the 3 and 10 packs will take over.For example: "chiropractor new orleans" still shows the single exact name match.However: "chirporactor new orleans LA" removes the geomodifier ambiguity and then shows local "chiropractors" in the traditional 10 pack.As a natural growth of information continues; I would expect in time, that this nice single result will go away."Sorry, this exclusive position may only last a limited time!" ;) David Rodecker Founder & CTO, RelevantAds “getting local business online"
Many changes in Google Local and they way it takes in data. Category system has been revamped, video integration, and according to recent chatter at conferences, Google Maps now longer accepts P.O. Boxes addresses. Category changesVideos on Google Local
