Google Local Search Gets A Bit Confusing

By: Scott Van Achte

I found this rather interesting bug over at Google today.

When doing a search for Victoria BC Lawyer, in the Local Business results I found that only one of the seven results were actually for law offices! The remaining 6 were for doctors as well as a government publishing office.

One would think that Google has been doing this long enough to not make such a big error " 1 out of 7 results relevant to the search?  Thats pretty poor if you ask me.
