NAP Citation Checker
We look up your Google listing for you. For 9 other directories (Yelp, BBB, Facebook, Apple, Bing and more) you get one-click searches to check by hand.
Questions about this tool
What is NAP?
Name, Address, Phone. Customers and search engines see these on many sites. Inconsistent NAP (a different phone on Yelp than on Facebook) confuses both, and is worth fixing.
Which directories matter most?
Google Business Profile is #1 by a mile. Then Yelp, Facebook, Apple Maps, Bing Places, BBB, and the Yellow Pages family. Industry-specific directories (Angi for home services, Avvo for legal) matter for those verticals.
How do I fix inconsistencies?
Claim the listing on each directory, update to match your GBP exactly, save. For listings you didn't create (auto-aggregators), use a tool like Yext or just manually claim them.
Do I need dozens of citations?
No. Quality over quantity. 10 high-authority, perfectly consistent citations beat 100 sketchy ones. Focus on the big ones in this checker first.
What if my phone is different on purpose?
If you use a tracking number for ads and a real number on GBP, that's fine on the ad landing page. But every citation (Yelp, BBB, etc) should show the same phone as your GBP.
What does this checker actually check?
It runs one Google Places search for your business name and city and shows the closest match, with its address, phone and website. If you enter your phone, it compares it to the Google listing. For the other directories it does not look anything up: each card opens that directory's search for your business so you can check the listing yourself.
Does this cost money?
No. This checker is free. Getting listed usually is too, except BBB which charges for accreditation (listing is free).
How often should I audit citations?
Every 6 months, or any time you move, change phone, or rename the business. The big platforms can take weeks to propagate changes.
