What gets checked

A local citation checker, field by field

A citation is any place online that lists your business name, address and phone number. Search engines and AI assistants compare those listings, and every disagreement costs you a little trust. The audit checks the core US directories that matter most, from Google, Apple Maps and Bing to Waze, MapQuest and the Better Business Bureau, and for every listing it finds it verifies seven fields: name, address, phone, hours, website, categories and photos.

The grade works like a report card. Full credit for a listing that is present and consistent, half credit for a listing with wrong or missing fields, nothing for a listing the scan could not find. The field accuracy bars then show you exactly which fields are hurting: a clean name row with a bleeding phone row tells you precisely what to fix first.

Read more about why this matters on the local citation service page, including where AI assistants actually get their local answers.

FAQ

Citation audit questions, answered straight

Is the citation audit really free?

Yes. No email address, no account, no card. Run it on your own business, a prospect or a competitor. To keep the tool fast for everyone there is a small per visitor limit on new scans, and repeat checks of the same business within a day are served instantly from the earlier result.

Which directories does the citation checker look at?

The scan checks the most important US directories live, including Google, Apple Maps, Bing, Facebook, Waze, Yellow Pages, MapQuest, Foursquare, Nextdoor and the Better Business Bureau, and grades the name, address, phone, hours, website, categories and photos on every listing it finds.

What does "not found by the network scan" mean?

It means the scan could not find and verify a listing for your business on that directory, not that the listing provably does not exist. Some directories answer slowly or match conservatively. Treat not found as a prompt to look, not as a verdict.

Why does the audit take about a minute?

Directories answer at different speeds, so results stream in as each one responds and the scan waits before calling anything missing. Faster would mean guessing. The report is worth the sixty seconds.

My grade is bad. What do I do about it?

Every issue in the report can be fixed by hand: claim the listing, correct the fields, and re-check it every month or two, because directories drift. If you would rather not make that a hobby, the LeadSnap citation service syncs all 46 directories in its network to your Google Business Profile and keeps asserting the correct data for $20 per location per month.
