Your Business Listings Checkup
Having your business consistently listed on major listing/directory sites and social properties is key to Google recognizing your brand online and making sure visitors can find you when they search for you.
Interestingly, the amount of traffic you’ll receive from these listing sites is getting lower and lower for most industries.
That said, having your business on these sites is a very important “confirmation” for Google that you are who you say you are and can improve your prominence in Search.
As well, because these sites themselves are indexed by Google, your listings will often show up when folks search for you (below your own results) which helps push other companies off the first page of results when someone searches for you specifically.
Read on as we look at a quick and easy way to check your listings.
