Citations help rank your Google Local Pack listing (this was formerly called Google+ Local map) by providing Google with credible sources of information about your business. Citations tell Google that your business exists, is legitimate and that what you say about it is accurate because it can be corroborated from multiple sources. Providing a consistent name, address and phone on various sites is therefore vital to providing trust signals to Google. tradedata.vn Also, find out where your competitors are listed. If this all sounds too time-consuming, then there are tools, both paid and free, that can help you find new citation opportunities. The tools we recommend and use ourselves include BrightLocal which does a paid citation burst that takes a few minutes to set up and then sends out directory requests on your behalf.
