Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the questions most often asked about our services and process. For basic information about citations and what they are, see this information that we’ve provided just for first-time buyers. If you need answers to questions that you don’t see covered here, please use our handy website chat to speak directly to a knowledgeable team member.
What's included?
We build a variety of citations, because that’s what delivers the best results. Depending on the citation building package you choose, we’ll create both structured (business directory) and unstructured (photo/video/social) citations.
How does it work?
Here’s the scoop:
1. Place your order and fill out the intake form (the more info we have, the better the citation).
2. We create a custom list of citation opportunities for you. We go past the top-50 lists to choose sources that have a real connection to your niche, city, state, etc.
3. Once we’re done, you’ll get one highly-detailed report, including new links, logins, and everything else included in a white-labeled spreadsheet.
How long will it take?
When you place an order with us, we will fire you a note, letting you know we have received your order, and quote you a date of completion. Typically, it takes 5 business days. We will always deliver on time—or your money back.
What do you guarantee?
We guarantee successful placement and accuracy.
If a citation is rejected for any reason, we’ll replace it with an equal or better opportunity at no extra cost. You’ll never pay for citations you don’t get.

Do you have a sample?
Of course, here is a sample report.
I'm not sure what I should get, can you guide me?
Of course! Just reach out to our support team with some info on your website (bonus points if we can check the URL) and we’d be happy to make some recommendations.
If you’re looking for something more hands-off and done-for-you, from strategy to execution, get in contact to learn more about our managed services.
Do you offer a discount for bulk orders?
Hey big spender! If you meet our minimum monthly requirement on either one-time or recurring services (currently $1000/mo), you’ll become part of our Agency Partner Program. This gets you a percentage of your total spend as an account credit that you can use toward future orders, with higher percentages available for bigger volumes.
What information will I need to provide?
Do you know the business address? Phone? Name? Website URL? Well, you are pretty much set. We’ll ask for a few things beyond this, but as long as you have the basics, that’s everything we need to get started.
What Is Citation Indexation?
Citations only count when Google knows about them – they need to be indexed to be effective. Eventually, almost all citations built will be found but we can speed up the process with our citation indexation add-on. Our team will build links to the structured citations we’ve just created for you to help Google find them faster, resulting in more citations that can immediately help your local rankings.
What is a structured citation vs. an unstructured citation?
Structured citations are those built on sites that are designed for listings. In other words, if you filled out a form that asked you for your business information, you’ve built a structured citation. Unstructured citations are created when you write your information outside of a form field. For example, when you write it in a blog, a photo caption, or a video description.
Can I see your list of citations?
We don’t have a list per se. Each order is different, based on competitive analysis, niche and geographic location. And of course, what you already have! Certainly there are a handful we will always want to build (the BIG ones), if not already built. If you’d like to see the proposed list before we submit, please ask before ordering so that we can organize one for you.
How do you handle verifications?
In short, we don’t – well, we can’t. If citations require phone or physical mail verifications, it’s not possible for us to accomplish this, especially in a whitelabel capacity. However, we will provide you with instructions and advice on how to verify these important listings.
How many listings will be live once you’re done?
The fact that you have to ask this is really telling of the other providers out there. When you get a report from us, 100% of the citations you paid for are live, delivered in 5 business days or less. Fast AND accurate? Manual citations are the way to go.
Do you work with international clients?
At last count, we have had the fortune of working on campaigns in 33 different countries. We’ve now stopped counting. We love the challenge of digging around to find the best local directories in your area. From Papua New Guinea to Belize, we’ve done it. Bring it on!
How quickly should I expect to see results?
It varies site to site – if your site is newer or less established it can take longer to build up algorithm cred. For your average site however, we’d expect to start seeing green arrows (positive movement) in 45-60 days after implementation for our fully managed campaigns.
If you’re purchasing single services then it varies greatly depending on the other types of marketing you’re doing and how comprehensive your own campaign is. If you’re curious about timelines or potential ranking challenges with your site, you can always reach out and request a detailed quote for your website.
I have multiple locations, how can I use your service?
Since we build citations based on the name, address, and phone number (NAP) of a business, each location will need a separate order.
What industries do you work with?
Butcher? Baker? Candlestick maker? You name it, we’ve built it. All niches and industries welcome!
Does your monthly citations plan require a contract?
We don’t really do contracts at Loganix. When you work with as many agencies as we do, month-to-month is the only way to go. Clients change their minds, businesses shift budget – we like to make it as easy as possible to get the citations you need when you need them.
How many citations do I need?
How many citations do you have already? Are there a lot of competitors in your area? Do you live in a big city with many potential clients? If the answers are none, lots, and lots, then the more citations you have, the better.
Still not sure? Reach out to our Support team and we’d be happy to point you in the right direction.
We Build 4 Types of Citations
We build a variety of citations, because that’s what delivers the best results. However, that doesn’t mean picking sources at random. We go past the top-50 lists to choose sources that have a real connection to your niche, city, state, etc. Being able to build so many types just helps us find the perfect fit.
Biz Directories
Business directories are still the gold standard for structured citations. We build a mix of them for every citation building client, on directories that match their industry, location or other factors.
Social
Social citations utilize the massive size and authority of social platforms to get you a high quality citation that has some juice behind it. Social citations mentioning your business details are a balanced part of any Local SEO campaign.
Photo
Users and Search Engines alike enjoy images. We’ll fill the photos of your business you’ve supplied with useful metadata and submit these to the largest photo sites around. You’ll receive a local citation on multiple high authority photo sharing sites and may even pick up some image search traffic.
Video
Video citations give your citation profile the variety it needs, and allow you to appear for video searches for your business information. If you don’t have a video we will create one using Powtoon and on submission include your business details & link in the description on high authority video sites.
Overall Rating
of customers that buy from this merchant give them a 4 or 5-Star rating.

How we Build Citations Better
We build better citations, because every citation we build must meet three high-quality criteria.
- Every citation is built by hand by smart people!
- Every citation is researched!
- Every citation can be justified!
Our process
We protect the quality with a comprehensive 7-stage process that includes:
- Verifying your business data
- Auditing your existing citations to figure out your existing profile
- Analyzing the citations being used by your top 5 competitors
- Researching the best sources not exploited or known by your competitors
- Handling the directory submissions
- Activating your new profiles
- Recording the logins in a clean and easy-to-use spreadsheet so you can take ownership of and continue to update your new citations
Why build by hand?
Not all citations are created equally. Well-built citations take time, attention and expertise, but they help you grow reliably and only get more valuable as they age. Badly-built citations perform poorly compared to ours, but that may be only the beginning of the problems they cause you.
The biggest priority in citations is accuracy. The information used in the citations must be accurate and identical in every citation. A single citation with the wrong business name can be interpreted as a competing business. First, you lose any growth that was supposed to go to your business from creating the citation, but then things can get a whole lot worse if the bad citation is picked up by an aggregator.
Aggregators are companies that compile massive amounts of local business data from other directories, public records and other sources. They do this so they can provide this data as a service to local search engines, advertisers and newer directories trying to fill holes in their existing data. When one of these companies picks up your bad information, they can send it out to be duplicated on hundreds or thousands of other sources.
Those citations should have been yours, but now you’re sharing your growth with a fake company! Fortunately, it’s still not the end of the world. The process of finding and deleting bad citation is called citation cleanup, and we do it better than anyone around.

See this information for first-timers if this is your first time trying out our service. Remember that our team is always happy to talk to you, feel free to submit questions through the chat box on the right or the contact form.
What are citations?
Citations are an instance online of your business name, address and phone number (often abbreviated as NAP). Think of them like a listing in a phone book in the days before the internet. However, the online version has a lot more versatility than that. Places where citations are built are called citation sources, or more specific terms such as business directory.
Why do they matter?
For the same reason that offline listings matter: they promote your business. They put your information in front of more people who are looking for your products and services. Additionally, search engines consider them to be authoritative signs of how well-known you are. If you have a lot of (good!) citations, you are likely to see growth from a lot of different directions.
What is a structured citation vs. an unstructured citation?
Structured citations are those built on sites that are designed for listings. In other words, if you filled out a form that asked you for your business information, you’ve built a structured citation. Unstructured citations are created when you write out your information outside of form fields. For example, when you write it out in a blog, leave it as a caption on a photo or when you include it in the description field on a video site.
What makes citations effective, or less than effective?
The accuracy of the information is the most important. A listing with bad information may as well be a listing for a different business for all it’s going to help you. After that, the relevance of the source to your business is important, and so is the distance away from the source.
What is citation indexation?
Citations only count when Google knows about them – they need to be indexed to be effective. Eventually, almost all citations built will be found but we can speed up the process with our citation indexation add-on. Our team will build links to the structured citations we’ve just created for you to help Google find them faster, resulting in more citations that can immediately help your local rankings.
