social media site has morphed into something more&#8212;much more.<\/strong><\/font><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">You see, Google has not only staked its claim on social media, but it has also reestablished its very strong foothold in local search and local search marketing.<\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">On May 30, 2012, Google made a bold move: They migrated the entirety of their 80 million Google Places listings to what they are alternatively calling, &ldquo;Google+ Local&rdquo; or &ldquo;Local Google+.&rdquo;<\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">In one fell swoop, Google made a very strong move.<\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">While it remains to be seen whether this turns out to be the online marketing equivalent of &ldquo;check&rdquo; or &ldquo;checkmate,&rdquo; it is crystal clear that<br \/>\n\tGoogle is reinventing itself in terms of search, social networking, and local listings. <\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">They have also made some big moves in mobile.<\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">This play on the &ldquo;So Mo Lo&rdquo; (Social Mobile Local) phenomena is important for all stakeholders involved, from local businesses, regional brands, and global powerhouses, to webmasters, search engine optimization practitioners, business consultants, and&#8212;perhaps most of all&#8212;consumers. <\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">Each will be affected in at least one way or another. <\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\">Producers and consumers alike will benefit from knowing where Local Google+ came from, where it is now, and where it is most likely headed for the future&#8230;<\/font>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<font color=\"#000000\" size=\"3\"><strong><span style=\"LINE-HEIGHT: 115%;
