Here’s the seven questions Danny posed to the audience:

1. How do you seize control of a local listing on Google? On Yahoo? What fields can you change? How do you add a picture?
2. What elements are important to ranking well in Google Video and YouTube?
3. How do you get into Google News? In particular, what unique structure do your URLs need to reflect to even be considered?
4. Google Blog Search — full text or indexing off whatever you put out in feeds?
5. How do you submit to Google Product Search? Yahoo Product Search?
6. Do you have to have a mobile web site to be in Google Mobile? Yahoo Mobile?
7. How do you know if Google is personalizing your web results?

I think its just the warm up to SES San Jose coming up this month.

The Google Local Business Referral Program is an initiative to gather contact, business hours and other information on businesses for listings in Google Maps – where Google is using independent contractors to gather their information. Basically they are paying $10 a confirmed listing.

The information gathering job requires people to sign up for it through their Google accounts and to have access to a digital camera to take a photograph of the business. At $10 an entry organized people could be making $30 plus dollars an hour – great salary for people in lower cost of living communities.
