Local citation services
Your business details, consistent everywhere they appear — across the aggregators, the general directories, and the industry-specific sites your customers and Google both check.
What we usually find
Citation problems are almost never about volume
They are about the listings you already have disagreeing with each other.
Your listings disagree with each other
A suite number on one directory, none on the next. An old phone number from before you ported it. A name with LLC on some and not others. Search engines reconcile those differences, and inconsistency is the most common reason a business that should rank locally does not.
Listings exist that you never created
Data aggregators generate listings automatically from public records and old data. Most businesses have listings they have never seen, carrying information that was accurate years ago.
Duplicates split your signal
Two listings for the same business on the same directory divide reviews, confuse the crawler, and are often the reason one competitor outranks you on nothing but tidiness.
The directories that matter differ by industry
A law firm needs Avvo, Justia, and FindLaw. A restaurant needs Yelp, TripAdvisor, and OpenTable. A contractor needs Angi, HomeAdvisor, and BuildZoom. Generic 100-directory packages spend most of their effort on sites nobody in your field is judged on.
How we work
What the work actually involves
Audit first, always
We find what already exists before creating anything new — including the listings you did not know about and the ones with a phone number you stopped using.
One canonical NAP
We agree the exact name, address, and phone format — down to whether it is Suite or Ste — and everything is built to match it.
The directories your industry is judged on
Core aggregators and the general directories, then the vertical-specific sites that actually carry weight in your field. We maintain research on this across 165+ industries.
Duplicates merged, wrong listings corrected
Claiming, merging, and chasing the directories that make it difficult. This is the slow part, and it is usually where the ranking gain is.
A record you keep
Every listing, its login, and its status in one document that belongs to you — so this never has to be rediscovered from scratch, by us or anyone else.
Why the industry-specific part matters
We maintain research on how 165+ industries are found and evaluated online — which directories carry weight, which review platforms customers actually check, and which listings are simply noise. That is the difference between 80 submissions and 30 that count.
