Do you need help with citations on your website? This important aspect of correct SEO management is often neglected on websites of all shapes and sizes. Without information about your business being visible across the web, your business will not thrive.
The more citations that your business has, the more it will be talked about and the more visible it will be. Citations, specifically niche citations, are a critical aspect of effective SEO. Google is trained to look for these citations and to use this information to help rank businesses in search results.
If you are ready to make sure that your business is benefitting from the local citations that it needs to grow and succeed, you can turn to us at Nelson Internet Marketing.
Local Citations Services
At Nelson Internet Marketing, we charge $2 per local citation. We will submit your local business to the number of local citations that you have ordered, and we will not stop working on your behalf until all are live.
How we find local citations for you:
Niche locations are the most effective local citations. We will look at the possible citations that you can access in your business niche first and foremost. As an example, if you are a realtor, we will work on local realty citations first and submit to as many of these as possible. After this work has been completed, we will move on to more general citations until we have completely fulfilled your order.
We will do so much more for your local citation efforts than other, less personalized competitors. We know that niche local citations are much more effective for our clients, which is why we make sure to work on these items first.
We also make sure that all of the local citations that we offer are of the best quality. Poor citations are just as bad as not having any in place, and we make sure that your site is not impacted by this kind of sloppy work.

- Client satisfaction is key and we make sure that our clients are getting everything they need and more when they choose to work with us.
Types of Citation Services That We Offer
We can offer you a variety of different services when you come to us for local citation work.
1. Building New Local Citations
Local citations play a significant role in the function of local SEO. These citations can be located in a wide array of locations online. They might be placed in business directories, or they could appear on social media platforms. We make sure that we seek out and find the best local citation options for your unique business needs.
2. Clean Up Existing Local Citations
If you have local citations in place, they might be outdated, they could need to be refreshed with more relevant information, or they might need to simply be verified for accuracy.
3. Remove Duplicate Local Citations
If your business is placed more than once somewhere online, this can actually harm your SEO and, therefore, bring down your business’s rank in Google searches. We will remove these duplicate entries to make sure that your SEO is not being negatively impacted.
Pricing for Local Citation Work
As mentioned before, we charge $2 per local citation that is built. We also offer the same fee for local citation fixing services and for the removal of duplicate listings.
This work takes anywhere from 1-3 weeks to be completed. Larger orders might take longer, but we will make clients aware of the expected turnaround time for these more involved or complex tasks.
We only work with US companies. This means that you can count on us to put your local SEO needs first. We are also experts in the process of securing these local citations for US companies. You will not receive the same kind of personalized attention from some competitors who are focused on global markets.
What is a Duplicate Removal?
Duplicate listing removal is a service that is used to remove duplicated instances of your listings in specific areas. When your site information or your business contact information is listed more than once in a directory or on a site, Google will view this as a sign that your site cannot be trusted. This will potentially lead to your site being ranked lower in the search results when people look for companies in your niche or area.
Duplicate removal services are completed by the expert team at Nelson Internet Marketing with care and attention to detail. We make sure that we track down all of the instances of duplicate listings and follow up until they are truly removed. Some sites will respond that they have removed a listing, but they never do the work to take care of the issue. We will pursue this problem until the duplicate is actually deleted.
What if My Location Changes?
Businesses can change location from time to time. If this is a necessary alteration that you have made to your business, you can work with us to have all of your local citations corrected. The easiest and most effective way to take care of this kind of change is to hire the experts at Nelson Internet Marketing to run a new campaign for you to correct your existing listings to show the right information.
When you start a new campaign to tackle the updates needed for a location change, we will also once again look for duplicated listings and other potential pitfalls for your SEO’s performance if you would like. We take pride in making sure that no matter what kind of campaign we run, we dot all the I’s and cross all the T’s.
How Are Local Citations Built?
Local citations are built using a specific process at Nelson Internet Marketing. We first prospect for each niche’s potential local citation options. We begin by looking at niche location placement because these citations are the most beneficial for SEO. We will then create each general local citation that we make on your behalf.
All of our citations are built manually, which means that you can trust that we have our eyes on each and every one. This eliminates the chances for errors or problems with your local citations. We take pride in creating listings that are well-crafted, well-placed, and highly effective for SEO performance.
If we believe that you need to offer increased information or different information to improve the performance of your citations, we are happy to work with you to complete these updates to your listings. We are experts in this kind of citation building, and you can trust us to work on each and every citation like we are creating it for ourselves.
What Do I Get When It’s All Said and Done?
This is a common question that clients ask when they are considering working with us for SEO work of various kinds. We make sure that we are always 100% transparent about the work that we are doing and the deliverables that we will offer at the completion of each contract.
When you work with the team at Nelson Internet Marketing, you will be treated to skilled local citation building done by experts. This work is done at affordable prices and with oversight to be sure that all of the listings that you have paid for are completed before the end of the project.
You will be given a spreadsheet that indicates all of the live citations that you ordered. This sheet will also include information about the ones that did not go live. We also list why the citation did not go live in the notes. This spreadsheet will help you to know more about and understand clearly where your business information has been placed for better visibility. This data is also very helpful if you choose to run subsequent campaigns to improve your SEO in the future.
Can I Submit a List of Local Citation Websites to You?
Yes! If you have a list of sites that you want to have your local citations placed on, we are happy to do this work for you! If the citation requires phone verification or payment, we will not be able to build these citations for you. Otherwise, we will happily build the citations that you have requested that you believe to be the most effective for your business needs.
Can I Place Local Citation for Multiple Locations?
Absolutely! We are happy to tackle big jobs and place local citations for various locations at the same time. These jobs often take longer than single-location work, but we will be happy to give you an expected timeline for this citation-building work. We are always happy to scale projects as needed, and we have the years of experience required to make this a feasible reality.
How do I Pay for My Campaign?
We make payment simple for this kind of SEO work. All clients will pay upfront for the campaign via PayPal. This keeps things simple and clear for everyone involved, and it helps with invoicing for both parties. We like to keep things simple, and payment is just one of the many ways that we make sure that you can access effective SEO services with ease.
What Do I Need to Provide When I Buy Citations?
The answer to this is also simple. We will ask for you to provide us with your business name, location, address, phone, and other information that might be relevant to the specific places that we will be doing local citations for you. After you buy, you can provide this information. We will get back to you if we need more information related to specific listings.
What Are Local Citations, and How Do They Help With SEO?
Local citations can be placed in a variety of places. They might be added to local directories that are placed online for businesses in your niche. They might also be placed on social media sites. These kinds of citations are best placed within niche directories and platforms, but they can also be placed in more general directories with great success.
Google ranks businesses in local searches based on visibility. This visibility is linked with authority as well. This means that just adding your business information to your website and a few other places is not enough to help your business to be visible to anyone looking in their local area for your services. You always need to reinforce the validity of your business information when it comes to Google so that you can stand out from the crowd.
Local SEO helps to ensure that your business comes up at the top of the searches that people do in your local area. When you use local citations, you ensure that your business is verified by other valid sites, which has a huge impact on rankings within Google searches. This visibility also helps people to find out about your business when they visit these other sites looking for information about your niche market.
