DIY Local Citation Consistency Check

Auditing your own existing business listings for consistency is a manageable, if tedious, task worth doing periodically.

List Every Directory You're Currently Listed On

Start by identifying where your business already appears, since it's often more listings than you'd expect.

Check Each One Against Your Current, Correct Details

Old addresses, previous phone numbers, and outdated business names tend to linger on directories long after they've changed.

Standardize a Single Format to Use Everywhere

Deciding on one exact format for your business details and applying it consistently prevents future inconsistency.

Next step: Use the SEO Audit to check your site's overall health while you're auditing your local listings.
