Google Places: Which Factors Affect the SEO Effectiveness of Citation builder pro?
Factors
Affecting Google Places Citation builder pro
First
on our list of factors which will affect your Google Places citation builderpro and their impact on your local SEO efforts, is the authority of the
referencing site. The more authority Google places in the site which hosts your
citation builder pro then the greater its worth is to your site. Citation
builder pro from low ranking, poorly constructed sites will, for example, be
inferior to a listing on a local government directory. In this sense, a
competitor with 5 high authority citation builder pro will outrank you even if
you have twice the amount of citation builder pro from low authority sites.
The
second factor to consider is the level of detail contained in the citation
builder pro. A site that lists your business and includes your business name
and website only is not going to be as effective as a citation builder pro
which also includes your phone number, fax number, full address and postcode.
This however, can have an impact on the third factor, consistency.
Your
citation builder pro must be consistent and contain the same information if
possible. If one citation builder pro lists your business as being Cardiff
Buildings, Cardiff Avenue, Cardiff CF00 0AA and another lists you as simply
Cardiff Buildings, Cardiff and another has Business Name, Cardiff then there is
a lack of consistency in Google's eyes which makes the citation builder pro
less powerful than if they complemented one another. This is even more
important when you have multiple phone numbers or locations. Select one number
for use in each location, ensure no other numbers are published on the web and
set up a different Google Places listing for each business using a local
variation on your business name.
The
fourth factor is relevance. Your citation builder pro need to be from local,
industry relevant sources. If you are based in Cardiff then try to get listed
in as many business directories with a 'Cardiff' section as possible. Approach
Cardiff based suppliers for a listing on their site, try to gain a listing on
any industry union, association or authority sites that have a local section.
Citation
builder pro can be a powerful SEO tool in a Google Places or local optimisation
campaign, but to get the most from your citation builder pro you should
consider these factors.
