Citation Cleanup Services – Clear, Consistent, and Ready to Rank

Let’s Be Honest… Your Listings Might Be a Mess

You think you’ve got your online presence under control. Then you Google yourself and—surprise—a half-dozen old addresses, a misspelled name, or a phone number you haven’t used in years. It’s more common than you’d expect.

That’s where citation cleanup comes in. It’s not flashy. But it works.

So What Is Citation Cleanup, Really?

Think of it like digital housekeeping. You’ve got all these citations—mentions of your business across the web. If they don’t match up? Google takes notice. And not in a good way.

We hunt those listings down, fix the wrong info, remove the duplicates, and make sure everything matches—perfectly. Because if your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) isn’t consistent, your rankings can slip. Your leads can get lost. Your brand takes a hit, even if no one says it out loud.

Our Process: Thorough, Manual, and Stubbornly Accurate

We don’t rush through this. Here’s what our citation cleanup service looks like:

  • Manual review of every listing. We check each one. By hand. Because tools miss things.
  • Fixing inaccuracies. Whether it’s a typo, an old address, or a phone number from two offices ago.
  • Contacting platforms. Some changes require reaching out—sometimes repeatedly. We handle it.
  • Verification and follow-up. We make sure the changes stick. And if they don’t? We go back.

Why Bother? Here's the Payoff

You’re not just cleaning house. You’re opening doors:

  • Higher local rankings. Search engines reward accuracy.
  • Better customer experience. Fewer wrong numbers, less confusion.
  • Stronger trust. Customers (and Google) know you’ve got your act together.
  • Peace of mind. You won’t have to worry about outdated info working against you.

Most small businesses don’t even realize this stuff matters. You will.

Built for the Real World

Some listings are ancient. Some are locked behind login info no one remembers. Some are in weird, niche directories no one uses—except your next best lead. We deal with all of it.

Whether you’re a single-location boutique or a multi-branch chain, we have you covered.
