No, we’re not talking about parking tickets! Citations are listings of your business on various directories and sites around the Web. They may or may not include a link to your website. Some prime examples are YellowPages (yp.com), Yelp.com, Angies List, etc.
As I discussed in my post on name, address and phone number (NAP), consistency in this data across many citation sources can help improve your rankings in Google local search results. That’s not all there is to dominating local search rankings, but it’s a good start.
