Where Do You Find Local Citations?

For businesses located in the USA finding local citations is actually quite easy. There are a couple of BIG players that help you submit your business to the biggest citations on the web. The 2 big players for US companies are localeze and getlisted.

For any other company and specifically those located in Canada the process is a bit more involved. The 2 big players are the internet yellow pages (yellowpages.ca and canpages.ca) but this is nowhere near as powerful as mass submission resources like the US has access to. So the real question is where and how can a business find good citations for their local maps!?

I stumbled across an AMAZING resource/tool yesterday and with their permission am sharing it now. The company is Whitespark and the tool is a local citation finder or http://www.whitespark.ca/tools/local-citation-finder/.

Simply put you can enter either a keyword or phone number and the tool will find citations on the internet and provide you with a list of highly relevant sites to submit your business to! Even MORE powerful the tool will also help you track and monitor which citations you have submitted to and which work best for your businesses.

As an internet marketer I have to say this tool is nothing short of incredible! Please ... do yourself a favor and check it out!
