  2. How Can Plus Codes Help Businesses Get Listed? In this day and age, there are a lot of businesses that operate online only or are serviced-based businesses and don’t accept customers at their location (some because they work out of their home). Would you feel comfortable or does it make sense to give out your home address as your business address? Definitely not! Yet, addresses are needed for directory listings and local profiles like Google My Business. We’re lucky because Google My Business (GMB) will allow us to mark an address as private.

  4. Plus Codes (Open Location Code) and Scripting in Google BigQuery What is a Plus Code? It’s the name of the code generated by the Open Location Code geocoding system. This code gives you a four digit area code (only required if you don’t have the nearest town within 25 kilometers), and a six digit local code (quick note, even though they are alphanumeric, in Plus Codes the terminology calls each character a “digit”). There is a “+” symbol right before the last two digits, which doesn’t actually convey any data, but just makes it easier to remember (much like dashes and spaces in a phone number). The ten digit format looks like “8FVC9G8F+6W” (which is the location for Google’s office in Zurich). If you include the town’s name, you can also use the last six digits, so this would be “9G8F+6W Zurich, Switzerland.” If you enter either format in Google Maps, it will take you there.
