Google Local Business Center Adds Personal Touch

In an attempt to personalize search results in their Local engine, Google now allows business owners to upload as much as 10 photos of their business along with their registration. These images can be pictures of the premises, photos of the team, your company logo, even products (for example: Hotels Honolulu, Steakhouses Boston).

I must add that Google Local is the only Google service which requires an actual verification of the location which is done using snail-mail letter to avoid “hijacked” listings. Registration for this service is available here.
