Local Search Pack Changes from showing 7 to 3 results


Today when you search for “maid service Lewisville” you now get three listings. (Right image listed above). The SEO term for this is a 3 pack.
This obviously will lead to fewer phone calls and sales for those businesses that appeared in the fourth position or lower. But it might lead to more business for those in the first three results.
The local pack is not just showing fewer business listings, it has been redesigned to fit a more mobile user interface.
What are some of the changes?
- The website is no longer listed under the business name. This has received its own Icon to the right of the listing.
- Gone are the A, B,C pins and hovering over the pins to show the business information to the right. This feature has moved a layer deeper.
- Click on a business within the 3 pack, direct you to the business information but also see multiple businesses for that category
- I have noticed that when Clicking the website, it will redirect to a Facebook page
What do I need to do?
- Ensure you’re On-page factors are correct
- Ensure your Website listings are correct across sites (Google, Bing, Yahoo)
- Continue to get Positive reviews
- Blog about your business weekly
