Claim, Verify & Create Local Listings

Verified listings establish trust with your audience

Having verified local listings in a consumer’s search results lets them know that this is a valid business and someone is making sure the information is accurate. More than likely, your business is already on the web, although the information may not be correct. Claiming your listing allows you to make sure that the most important information (name, address, and phone number) is correct. This also leads to a good experience with a potential customer. If they call a number and it is disconnected, they may go to a competitor who has their correct information listed. From there, you can optimize your listing with photos, logos, hours, categories, and other options. This rounds out your listing and looks more trustworthy in general.

When your business has verified listings on several sites (think Google, Yelp, Bing, etc.) your own website link is readily available in more places on the web. This will help direct relevant traffic to your site. You can also use unique tracking URLs on each listing site to monitor where your traffic is coming from. Google My Business also provides downloadable analytics for your listings, including information such as:

Direct and discovery searches

Search views

Map views

Website actions

Directions actions

Phone call actions
