For example, if someone types into Google: “local plumber Jacksonville fl,” local plumbers in Jacksonville, Florida (who have good online marketing) will be the first to pop-up  – and they’re the ones who get all the business. We specialize in strategic citations and local optimizations that help companies increase their sales, revenue, and local market share by making them more visible online. Whether you want more foot traffic to your brick-and-mortar store, more phone calls, or more leads in general, our local directory listing service can help you reach the customers who are already looking online for services in your area. When set up correctly, citations can be very easy to manage and can lead to improved local rankings. However, if done incorrectly, citations can confuse potential customers and be a nightmare to clean up … **so let us handle it for you!**   ### Crafting a Clear & Consistent Online Identity #### Audit We audit directory listing/citations across all major online directories (think Better Business Bureau, CitySearch, Manta, Merchant Circle, Yelp, etc.) to establish whether or not your business is listed correctly and if it’s targeting the right customers.  #### Getting to Work After the audit, we roll up our sleeves and manually insert your business details (name, phone, email, website, etc.) into 60 or 90 diverse online platforms, all selected with your precise industry and customers in mind. #### Reporting Once the work is complete, you’ll receive a spreadsheet showing the results from the initial audit, along with links and login info to all the citation sources we just created for your business. ## Bringing Customers to Your Door ## Simple Pricing A lot of marketing companies will make you believe you need to pay a monthly or yearly contract for “listings management services”. However, our services are a once-and-done solution to getting your website to rank higher in search. The whole process takes about 10 business days to complete, and once finished…you’ll never have to worry about your online directory listings again (as long as your business name, phone number, website etc. stays the same). ### $395 FOR 60 LISTINGS ### $495 FOR 90 LISTINGS ## LEt's Get Started ### Establishing a Solid Foundation of Credibility & Trust Building citations is beneficial for Search Engine Optimization because it helps Google and Bing to trust the authenticity of your business and the accuracy of your information. When Google can see that exactly the same information exists across a number of trusted websites, then this trust can be passed on to your business. Citation consistency is therefore particularly important for enjoying the maximum SEO benefit of local citations. This means that your business name, address, and phone number must be accurate across all of the websites on which your business is listed. Although links are great, a local citation doesn’t need to link to your business website in order for it to have SEO advantages. Google will identify that your business has been mentioned through the presence of your citations data, and this is enough to influence “trust signals” towards your brand. With this, increased website rankings will follow.
