Local Citations

Local citations are online mentions of your business name, address, and phone number (NAP) on directories, websites, and platforms across the web. Citations help search engines verify your business information and are a local ranking factor. Consistent citations across many sources strengthen local SEO signals.

How This Applies to Home Care Marketing

Citations on healthcare directories, senior care platforms, and local business directories strengthen your local search presence. Key citation sources for home care include Caring.com, AgingCare.com, Yelp, Facebook, and major data aggregators that feed information to search engines and mapping services.

Citation quality matters more than quantity. Accurate listings on authoritative, relevant platforms provide more value than hundreds of listings on obscure sites. Prioritize healthcare and senior care directories alongside general business platforms.

Key Takeaway

Build citations on quality directories first—healthcare-specific and major local platforms. Ensure perfect NAP consistency across all listings. Monitor and correct inaccuracies that could confuse search engines or mislead families.
