Top Citation Sites for Marketing Businesses

Top Citation Sites for Marketing Businesses

Getting your business listed on reputable marketing directories is an important task for people working in this profession. Not only is this a great way to spread the word about your business but also plays a foundational role in your search engine optimization (SEO) strategy.

Search engines need to understand they can trust your business before you can be considered an authority in your industry — which is key to better search rankings. By building citations across a range of marketing directories, you can build this authority and grow your reputation online.

The following table contains information on the top business listing sites for marketing professionals.

As you’ll notice, each site has a column to show which country it’s for, alongside a column highlighting which sites are free to use and which aren’t.

Below the niche list, we’ve also gathered the top general citation sites that most businesses should try to get listed on.

Please note: Local citation sites listed here aren’t necessarily ones we can submit to using Citation Builder. Click here for more information.
