What are Website Citations in SEO

A local citation is any mention of your business's name, address, and phone number online. Many SEOs believe they're a key ranking factor for local SEO. Citations appear in lots of different places: business directories, social networks—anywhere someone might be looking for information about local businesses.

Citations are considered a ranking factor for local SEO. Making sure that your website is listed in trusted sources lets Google know that your business is legit and actually exists.

To be most productive, they should be identical from one site to the next. EX: (312) xxx-xxxx and 312-xxx-xxxx are seen as different citations, and lose some power. Also ensure your address is identical, using ave Ave Rd rd etc or don't use it. Consistency is the prime consideration with citations.
