Business directories are a simple yet powerful way to generate trust from Google for your website. It’s critical you understand why we’re out to achieve these listings. The purpose of listing in business directories isn’t just so people can find you through them. The real reason is so you can create a backlink.
A backlink is another site linking to yours. When you create a listing in a business directory, they input your URL (alongside your other business info), providing a backlink pointing directly to your site. Generally speaking, the more people linking to you, the more trustworthy and relevant your website then becomes.
The stronger a website is, the more powerful that backlink is. Google determines Domain Authority through a bunch of tactics, mainly relevance. Since business directories are so relevant in how they help people, Google can rank them really highly for doing a good job.
In each case complete as much information as you can and upload photos if possible. It’s important to ensure your business name, address, phone and email are consistently entered in each directory as Google tends to cross check these details.
