Local Search Ranking Factors 2012

The survey polls leading local SEOs for relative importance of local search ranking factors in the following main areas...
Place Page Criteria
Off-Place Page/Off-Site Criteria
Website Criteria
Review Criteria
Social/Mobile Criteria
| Results were then tabulated via inverse scoring, where the #1 ranked factor received the most "points" for that question, and the lowest-ranked factor received the fewest points. Thus, the more factors deemed irrelevant by a particular respondent, the heavier the weight given to the factors that they did rank. |

An impressive survey that's basic reading for anyone seriously interested in local search.
