How The Process Of Cleanup And Citation Audit Services Works
Citation Audit Process:
- Client Input- To get the process started, we ask all clients to fill out an initial intake form. This will include giving us your current business information and your old business information.
- Verification Of Information- Once we receive your initial intake form, we work to verify the business information you have sent us. We will look for any inconsistencies we find online compared to the information you give us. We will then contact you to discuss ways in which we can resolve this. This is the most important step to discovering all of your existing citations.
- Search Through Major Data Aggregators- The next step we take is to search for your information in the four top data aggregators. These include Localeze, InfoGroup, Acxiom and Factual.
- Uncover All Current Business Citations- We will manually locate all existing citations your business has using the business information you have provided us with.
- Quality Control- We pride ourselves in offering quality services to our new and existing clients. There are no exceptions to this part of the discovery process. Once this stage is completed, we will send a detailed report of our findings to our quality control specialists who will work to manually check all information for accuracy.
Citation Cleanup Process:
- Clean Up U.S. Clients’ Data Aggregator Information- The cleanup process will begin with making certain that the information of your business in the top aggregators is current, clean and accurate.•
- Clean Up Top 50 National Business Sources- The next step during the cleanup process is to verify accuracy in the top ranking business sources for the nation. These are national sources, not just local ones. These business sources often list various businesses in the whole country across a variety of industries.
- Clean Up Top 5 Location And Industry Specific Directories- For many local businesses, there are some location-specific and industry-specific directories that can have a big impact on your local search engine rankings. We will ensure your information is clean and accurate in these directories to help you have healthy rankings.
- Verification- This is the last and most important part of the cleanup process. Some business directories require a phone call to verify your business information being changed. For these directories, we are going to work closely with you to make sure the necessary changes get made. We will work with you to find a convenient way to approach this step.
Our Turnaround Time For The Local Citation Services
The time it takes to complete all cleanup and citation audit steps will vary from client to client. In general, the turnaround time can take anywhere from six to ten weeks. The main factor concerning the amount of time it will take is the citation profile your business has.
