Sound Familiar?
Google looks for consistent information about your business across the web. When the details don’t match, it’s less sure who you are, and less likely to show you.
An old address on one website, a former phone number on another and a slightly different business name on a third.
New premises, a new number or a new name, and the internet is still sending people to the old ones.
Competitors appear on the directories and local sites customers use, and you’re nowhere to be seen.
Your Google Business Profile looks good, but you’re still not showing up in the local map results.
What I Check
Every package starts by finding what’s already out there, fixing what’s wrong, then building consistent new listings where they’ll do the most good.
What You Get
Cheap citation services fire your details at hundreds of low-quality websites. I focus on the listings that are worth having, and get them right.
One agreed version of your name, address and phone number, used everywhere so Google sees a single, trustworthy business.
Listings on directories that are relevant and trusted in the UK, not hundreds of spammy sites nobody visits.
Wherever I create a listing, you get the login details, so everything stays in your control.
If your citations are already in good shape, I’ll say so, and point you to what will make more of a difference.
Pricing
A one-off package, priced around how much clean-up you need and how many listings are worth building. You’ll know the price before I start.
Citations are also included as part of my local SEO services at £295 a month.

Why Me
Citations work best alongside a strong Google Business Profile and a website that backs it up. I’ve worked in local SEO for years, so your citations are built to support the rest of your local presence, not in isolation.

The Process
Four steps, and you’ll always know what’s happening and why.
Tell me about your business, any past addresses, numbers or names, and the areas you cover.
I search for your existing listings and note everything that’s wrong, duplicated or missing.
Incorrect listings are fixed where possible, and new listings are added on the directories worth having.
You get a list of every live listing, what was fixed, what’s still pending and the logins for anything I created.

Questions
Something else on your mind? Ring or WhatsApp me. You’ll get a real answer from me, not a sales script.
A local citation is any mention of your business name, address and phone number online, such as a listing on a business directory, a map app or a local website.
Yes, though they’re one part of the picture rather than a magic fix. Consistent citations help Google trust your business details, which supports your Google Business Profile and local rankings.
Packages start from £100. The final price depends on how much clean-up your existing listings need and how many new listings are worthwhile for your business.
As many as are relevant and trustworthy for your business and area. I’d rather build a smaller number of good listings than hundreds of worthless ones.
New listings can take a few weeks to go live and be picked up by Google, and some directories are slower than others. Citations are a steady, long-term foundation rather than an overnight change.
Yes. Updating an old address everywhere it appears is one of the most useful things a citations package can do, and it’s often the reason a business drops out of the map results.
Where the directory allows it, yes. Some are quicker to deal with than others, and I’ll tell you in the report if anything is still waiting on a directory to update.
Yes. Citations are part of my local SEO services at £295 a month. A citations package suits you if you just want this part done on its own.
