How to Rank in Local Search in 2019 and Beyond

The 2 major factors that effect how you rank your website in local searches today are the consistency of your citations and the quality and quantity of your NAPs (NAP = Name, Address & Phone number) across all your business listings.

What is a Citation?

Citations are simply the occurrences of your business information across the web and include directories like Yelp, Google My Business, Facebook and CitySearch to unstructured citations on press releases, photos and Youtube videos.

It’s important to note that your NAP has to be the same accurate information everywhere it is found online. If not, you run into all kinds of duplicate issues that not only confuse the search engines but people searching online for your products and services, often resulting in splitting your reviews across several pages. This is bad for your business and we don’t want it to happen at any cost.

If the NAP information is consistent and accurate, then it’s a good thing and you will benefit, usually with improved rankings and more leads.

If this information is inaccurate, it still spreads, but damages your ability to rank locally. The duplicate and erroneous data is extremely difficult to clean up. Until now!
