FAQ
What is a citation audit and why does it matter?
A citation audit reviews where your business name, address, and phone number appear across online directories and checks them for accuracy and completeness. Consistent citations help search engines trust your business data, which supports stronger local pack and map rankings. This citation audit tool gives you a structured checklist so nothing important slips through.
How does this tool choose which directories to show?
It filters a bundled list of general directories that every local business needs, plus country-specific sites and niche directories matched to your industry, such as restaurants, medical, legal, or home services. Each listing is tagged by priority so you can focus on the highest-impact citations first.
Is my checklist data saved or sent anywhere?
No data is sent anywhere. The tool runs entirely in your browser and stores your status selections in local storage on your own device, so your progress stays private and is ready the next time you open the page.
