Usually when you hear that you have received a \u201ccitation\u201d it is a bad thing, but in <\/span>the
\nOnline Marketing world, the opposite is true. If you own a business in Cape Canaveral,
\nBrevard County Florida (or any surrounding areas), and you <\/span>have heard of or read
\nabout citations, you may have been confused about exactly <\/span>what they are. And it’s
\na very beneficial idea to change that mindset like right now.<\/span><\/p>\n

In simple terms, a citation in the online world refers to any time your company <\/span>
\ninformation is listed on a website. These include listings such as local directories, <\/span>
\nsuch as Yelp.com, YellowPages.com, and SuperPages.com.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, citations can be found on other types of websites such as local blogs, <\/span>news
\nwebsites, employment sites, Social Media sites, government sites, the <\/span>Chamber
\nof Commerce sites, and anything else that may mention your company. <\/span>Even if
\nthe mention has no link to your company\u2019s website and only your <\/span>company\u2019s
\nname is mentioned, it is still considered a citation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, the more information included, the better.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Citations Are Good<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Any online exposure for your company will bring attention to your products and services,
\nwhich you can obviously benefit from. Exposure opens you up to potential customers that
\nmay have previously passed you by; and citations play a vital role in helping you connect
\nwith these potential buyers.<\/p>\n

In addition to that, citations are critical for search engine optimization today.\u00a0 Google and
\nother search engines use citations to rank your business. The more citations you have,
\nthe higher your website will list in the search results. A higher ranking means more web
\ntraffic, which in turn equals more business for you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So what is the key to getting more citations for your business? <\/em><\/span>
\nWhile there are a variety of ways to accomplish this, it all boils <\/em><\/span>
\ndown to building more of a presence online.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, several factors should be considered when building these citations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tips for Citation<\/span>s<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At the very least, your citations should mention your company\u2019s formal name, your
\nphysical address, and your local phone number (also called NAP for \u201cName, Address,
\nPhone Number\u201d) – and anything else that tells a search engine or a customer exactly
\nwho you are.<\/p>\n

Even more important is that all of your citations are consistent and contain the exact
\nsame information.\u00a0 Using different addresses and phone numbers (except in the case
\nof multiple locations) could actually hurt your ability to gain any benefits from them.<\/p>\n

Finally, a citation is most effective when it is accompanied by as much information
\nabout your business as possible. So be sure to include your hours of operations,
\npictures, videos, details about your products and services, and any other helpful
\ninformation you think your potential customers would like to have.<\/p>\n
