Local SEO Reality Check

Most local SEO "tools" are solving problems that don't exist. If you're a single-location business, you don't need citation management software. Manually create and claim your listings on the top 10-20 directories. Done.

Multi-location businesses with 50+ locations? That's where these tools provide value. Everyone else is paying for convenience that might not be necessary.
