Full Existing Citations Audit
Consistency is key, so our first action carried out as part of our business citations service is a thorough existing citations audit.
We will note all existing listings, incorrect and correct to build the foundation strategy of your citation campaign. Therefore avoiding duplicate listings.
You will get a full actionable report, with findings and guidance on how to fix broken citations.
New Local Listings Service
Our second phase in the business citations service will list your new business citations in each business directory manually.
The new local listings service makes sure your local business appears in the best directories for your industry.
Manual submissions and bespoke campaigns mean we take your individual needs seriously. We strategically list your business where it will be easy for customers to find.
Strategy 1: Existing citations audit – building from the foundations up we start with where you are at, including assessing all existing citations.
2: New citations listings – we will then build citations where it matters.
3: Competitor review directories – We scrape competitor review directories to find Google trusted directories.
We manually submit all the most important directories where possible.
Some manual submissions will need to be authorized by you (the client). Therefore, we will conveniently guide you to assist with verification methods where applicable. Plus we always handover a report with login information and similar details.

F.A.Q.
Where will you list my Business?
We list across all core platforms including Google My Business, Acxiom, Infogroup, Localeze/Neustar plus social and customer-reviewed platforms.
What are Data Aggregators?
In this context, a data aggregator is a system to process the information submitted and stored/indexed for the purpose of providing key business stats and data in an organised fashion.
Is your fee per location?
Yes, our fee is per location – NAP (name, address, phone number).
Will you add pictures / change around my existing profiles?
If you have the logins for the properties, we can change them up. The problem is, most people do not keep them. If not, it’s much harder to get the stuff changed, and this obviously what we can do differs per directory.
So it’s not something that we “sell” as something we do on our sales page for the service. The main thing that we’re concerned about is the business name, address & phone which is really what’s going to mess up your results if anything.
How do you get around doing phone confirmations?
We’ve been mailing directories for the better part of 2+ years. They have come to recognize us, and are usually pretty accommodating for the most part. A small percent of directories are harder to cooperate with.
