Same name. Same number. Everywhere.
Citation Management for Local Businesses
We find, fix and build your business listings across the web so Google, AI assistants and customers always see the right information.
The short answer
A citation is any online listing of your business name, address or phone number, such as Yelp, BBB or a data aggregator. Citation management is auditing those listings, fixing wrong ones, removing duplicates, adding missing ones and keeping them consistent. Consistent citations help Google and AI assistants trust your business details.
How It Works: Find it. Fix it. Build it.
- We find every variation of your business name and phone number, including old ones.
- We audit the major directories and data aggregators for correct, incorrect and duplicate listings.
- We fix incorrect listings and remove duplicates for good — not just hide them.
- We add missing listings and fill each one out with categories, descriptions and photos.
- You get a report with links to every listing and its login.
Why It Matters: Trust is built on consistency.
Search engines cross-check
Google and Bing compare your details across many sources. When they agree, your business looks more legitimate.
AI assistants do too
ChatGPT, Copilot and Siri rely on listings like Bing Places, Apple Business Connect and Yelp. Wrong data there means wrong answers about you.
Customers find you
People still look up businesses on directories. Being listed correctly where they search simply makes sense.

Frequently Asked Questions: Straight answers.
What is a local citation?
A local citation is any online mention of your business name, address or phone number, such as a listing on Yelp, BBB, a data aggregator or a chamber of commerce directory.
Why do old phone numbers matter?
Old or mismatched numbers confuse search engines and AI assistants about which details are correct, which can hurt your rankings and send customers to the wrong number.
Do I need a website from you to get citation help?
No. Citation cleanup and building works with any website, so we can fix your listings even if we don’t do your website work.
Do you remove duplicate listings?
Yes. We remove duplicates for good where the site allows it, rather than just suppressing them.
