Local listing requirements vs optimized listings
Spiders are ever crawling the Web looking for new information to store for cross referencing and extraction for search results. For you to be indexed as a local business listing there are four criteria that search engines require:
A Business Name – or DBA
A Local Phone Number – no toll free or call tracking numbers
A Physical Street Address – no P.O. Boxes or shared addresses
A Face to Face Business – no virtual businesses
A Local Phone Number – no toll free or call tracking numbers
A Physical Street Address – no P.O. Boxes or shared addresses
A Face to Face Business – no virtual businesses
Google found that businesses with a complete listing within the search were 197% more likely to be viewed as a place people can depend on. Let us make your listing complete with ALL options provided for optimal local listings
Your Google ranking is largely dependent on consistent identical Information
Business Name, Address and Phone Number
Your Name, Address, and Phone Number (NAP) has to remain consistent across the internet or search engines will distrusts your existence and drop you in local search ranking. Typos and punctuation like including an apostrophe in “Sam’s Car Lot” only half the time is disastrous so take great care to make sure your NAP’s are identical in spelling, spacing and styling everywhere on line. Take note that all this information needs to be entered text, so you can’t just copy/paste in your logo and call it done.
Are all of your categories correct?
Most search engines allow a designation of two to five categories of your choosing. This not only let’s Google and they know where best to list you, it helps customers understand who you are and what you do. Not categorizing, or even worse selecting the wrong categories could mean search engines don’t use in you search results at all.
Citations cleanup.
If you need citation directory listings beyond the 40+ directories in our local listing packages we can assist you.
Let our in-house team handle updating of your SEO citations, helping to boost your local authority in Google:
Manual citation clean-up (fix NAP errors)
Remove duplicate citations
Our fee is based on the number of duplicate citations and additional listings need.
Create new listings on Google maps for new businesses.
Getting your business on Google Maps can increase traffic to your store. When you put your business on Google Maps, you are paving the way for greater brand reach. Customers searching for, say, coffee, in their local area will open up Google Maps in search of that cup of joe and discover that your business (a café) is just a few minutes away from their location. With no work on your end, you’ve just scored a new customer!
Getting on Google maps can also increase website traffic because your Maps listing contains your website.
The more easily and frequently your business’s name appears on Google Maps, a trusted source of information, the more people will start trickling in. Even if you don’t own a brick and mortar store, you can benefit from the exposure Google Maps provides.

If your company relies on local consumer traffic, this clearly shows the importance of making your business visible in the search results.
Today, attracting local customers is easier than ever thanks to technology that allows you to market in your town or service area. Marketing within a defined geographic area is much more effective than blanket-style marketing if your ultimate goal is to target local consumers in your area. Basically, you need to fish where the fish are!
One of the best ways for you to connect with local customers is to get listed on online directories such as Google My Business. As you can imagine, this is the top local business listing platform simply because it’s owned by Google – the worlds top search engine.
According to Google, 50% of all the mobile consumers who search for a local business in a day visit it as well. Furthermore, 18% of them end up making a purchase.e
The importance of being ranked on the Google search engine is something we all know about. Today, the total global search engine market share of Google is between 70% and 90%, and this isn’t going to decline anytime soon.
However, getting noticed in the search engine results pages (SERPS) includes far more than just aiming for a top spot in regular results and working on your search engine optimization.
A complete, verified, and optimized Google My Business listing allows you to connect with your target audience and be found in more ways than ever before.
Customers are the lifeline of every business. Without customers, businesses cannot flourish or even operate. Today, most of the successful businesses consider customers more than just financier For them, customers are their friends, advocates, and regulars. The internet has made it easy for businesses to connect with their target audience every day.
