In an article by Thomas Claburn of Information Week, Google’s director of product management for local search, Carater Maslan, says that this dashboard “shows statistics on how local listings are found across Google properties” and “..helps businesses see how customers are finding them.”
He points out that the “big eye-opener for some local businesses is going to be that more than 80% of online visitors start at search.”
According to Maslan, the dashboard is being rolled out today, June 1, and should be available to businesses across the country by tomorrow.
Techcrunch provides a nice screenshot.
