Local citations and reviews in Leeds
Help customers and Google trust your business, with accurate details across the web and a simple way to earn more genuine reviews.
What citations and reviews do
A citation is any online mention of your business details, usually your name, address and phone number. They appear in business directories, on industry sites and on local websites.
If those details are wrong or out of date, customers can end up calling an old number, and your business looks less reliable. Getting them right is simple, but it takes patience to find and fix them all.
Reviews matter just as much to the people reading them. Google says that review count and positive ratings can help local rankings, and it uses information from across the web, including directories, to judge how well known a business is.

How we build your local trust
Agree your details
We confirm exactly how your business name, phone number and other details should appear everywhere.
Clean up what's there
We look for old, duplicate or incorrect listings and correct what we can.
Add useful listings
We add your business to general and relevant industry directories, based on your package.
Make reviews routine
We give you a simple way to ask happy customers for a review after each job.
Genuine reviews, no shortcuts
The best time to ask for a review is usually soon after a job has gone well. A short message with a direct link makes it easy, and it soon becomes part of how you finish every job.
We don't buy reviews or write fake ones, and we won't offer customers rewards for leaving them. Google's rules prohibit fake reviews and incentives, and fake reviews are also banned under UK consumer law. Getting caught could cost you far more than a few extra stars are worth.
How you reply matters too. A short thank you for good reviews and a calm, helpful answer to bad ones shows future customers how you treat people.
Citations and reviews work best as part of wider local SEO, alongside a complete Google Business Profile.
Common questions
Do directory listings still matter?
They're one signal among many, and they won't win you rankings alone. They're still worth getting right because accurate details help customers reach you and support your wider local SEO.
Can you remove a bad review?
Only Google can remove a review, and usually only if it breaks Google's rules. We can help you flag reviews that do. For honest negative reviews, a calm and helpful reply is usually the best answer.
How many reviews do I need?
There's no magic number. It depends on how many your local competitors have, and a steady flow of genuine reviews looks better than a sudden burst.
Which directories will you use?
We focus on established general directories and those relevant to your industry, not long lists of low-quality sites.
