Citations, explained
What is a local citation?
A citation is any listing of your business name, address and phone number (often called NAP) on another website: directories like Yelp, Bing and Apple Maps, industry sites and the data aggregators that feed hundreds of apps and maps.
Google and AI assistants compare these listings to decide whether your business details can be trusted. When an old phone number, a former address or a slightly different name shows up across the web, it creates doubt. Cleaning that up is one of the simplest local SEO fixes there is.
What does citation building do?
Gets you listed where it counts.
Your details sent to the 5 major data aggregators
Listings on the top directories for your industry and city
Each listing tracked until it’s live
What do we avoid?
Listings that do more harm than good.
Hundreds of low-quality directories
Fake addresses for areas you don’t have an office in
Listings you can’t control later
How it works
Do citations still matter for local SEO and AI search?
Yes. Consistent listings won’t rank you on their own, but inconsistent ones hold you back, and AI assistants read the same sources.

Frequently asked questions about citations and business listings
How much does citation building cost?
The Data Aggregator Boost is $249 a year, Local Listings 10 is $149, Local Listings 25 is $299, Local Listings 50 is $549, and the Complete Listings Bundle with the aggregators and 50 directories is $699. Yelp auto-sync is $20 a year for local SEO customers.
Do I need listings before local SEO?
Yes. Local SEO needs the Data Aggregator Boost and at least 10 directory listings, and we recommend 25, so your business details are consistent across the web before we build on them. See local SEO.
Can service-area businesses without a storefront get listings?
Yes, but there are fewer options. Many directories require a public address, so service-area businesses have fewer places to list and local SEO takes more work. We never create fake addresses.
What is a data aggregator?
A data aggregator is a company that supplies business information to hundreds of apps, maps, navigation systems and directories. Getting your details right with the major aggregators spreads them to many sites at once.
What does NAP mean?
NAP stands for name, address and phone number. Every listing we build uses the exact same NAP as your Google Business Profile.
Do citations still help local SEO?
Consistent listings support your Google Business Profile and help Google and AI assistants trust your business details. They work best alongside a strong profile and reviews.
Do you fix wrong or duplicate listings?
We focus on building new listings and sending your correct details to the data aggregators, which feed hundreds of sites. We don’t offer a separate listing cleanup service.
Can I see examples of your work?
Yes. We built business listings for Jeannie’s Cleaning and Spencer’s Outdoor Solutions. See every project on our projects page.
