      Hi fellow mozzers!

      We are currently relaunching our website and are in the process of ensuring all our local citations are up to date and consistent. In doing so, I've noticed that there are still countless listings under our old address, which probably isn't doing our local rankings a whole world of good!

      I have been hunting these down by searching "company name" "old address" to bring up any references, but I wondered if there was a tool to find these quicker, in the same way Whitespark finds citation sources to begin with? Similarly, is there a tool that flags up listings that have the correct NAP info, but that has maybe been formatted differently enough so as to cause consistency probs?

      Thanks all!

        Hi

        Here's a few you can try:

        Get Listed

        Universal Business Listing

        I find get listed to be more accurate but Universal Business Listing has more sites that it checks for you.

        Plus, get your info squared away with Express Update USA  since they provide data to a lot of third party sources.

          Hi Dan,

          I had been looking into both of these tools, but UBL seemed to have prompted a fair few people to say they'd paid the listing fee but had never seen their citations appear, so I'd put that on the backburner.

          As for the Express Update USA, we're based in the UK - do you know of an equivalent?

          Cheers!
