Get listed everywhere that matters - accurately.

Google, Apple Maps, and every AI assistant cross-check your business details across dozens of directories before deciding to show you. We find every listing you have, fix the wrong ones, build the ones that count, and keep the record clean - so machines trust your business enough to recommend it.

Overview

Clean business data is a ranking asset

Your business is listed in more places than you think - an old address from a move three years ago, a tracking phone number from a past campaign, a duplicate profile a well-meaning employee created. Every conflict makes search engines a little less certain about who you are, and uncertain businesses don't get shown.

Citations - mentions of your name, address, and phone number across the web - are foundational to local visibility. But most agencies handle them by blasting submissions through cheap software and calling it done. The result is hundreds of half-complete listings nobody maintains, junk directories that add nothing, and the original errors still sitting in the sources that actually matter.

We ran a business in South Florida for two decades and lived the fallout of bad data firsthand - customers dialing a dead number, drivers routed to an old suite. So we fix the sources, not the symptoms, and we treat listings as one layer of your local strategy rather than a checkbox to bill for.

What's included

What you get with Amped

Full lifecycle listing management - because a directory profile is only an asset while it's accurate.

Full citation audit

We locate every existing mention of your business across search engines, maps platforms, directories, and data aggregators, then grade each one: correct, wrong, duplicate, or missing. You see the complete picture before anything gets touched.

NAP standardization

One canonical name, address, and phone record - decided once, documented, and applied everywhere. Suite formats, tracking numbers, and old brand variations get resolved so every listing tells the identical story.

Data aggregator distribution

Your canonical record pushed to the major data aggregators that feed thousands of downstream sites, apps, and voice assistants. Fixing the data upstream means corrections propagate on their own instead of resurfacing as errors.

Industry & local directories

Beyond the general platforms: the vertical and geographic listings your buyers and Google actually weigh - chambers of commerce, trade associations, industry-specific platforms. A handful of authoritative listings beats a thousand junk ones.

Duplicate suppression & cleanup

Duplicate profiles split your reviews and muddy your ranking signals. We merge, claim, or suppress every stray profile - including the stubborn ones that require working a platform's support process to kill.

Ongoing monitoring & reporting

Listings drift: platforms accept public "suggested edits," and stale data creeps back in. We watch for changes, correct them fast, and report monthly on listing health and local visibility - not a raw count of submissions.

The 2026 landscape

Why citations matter more in the AI era

Citations used to be a volume game - more listings, more rank. That era is over. Today they function as a verification layer: search engines and AI assistants compare your details across sources, and consistency is what earns their confidence. The businesses that get surfaced are the ones whose data agrees with itself everywhere it appears.

Aggregators are the plumbing. A small number of upstream data companies supply business information to mapping apps, voice assistants, GPS systems, and even spam-call databases. Correct your record there and accuracy flows downstream; skip them and you're playing whack-a-mole with the same error on fifty sites.

Quality beats coverage. Most of the directories that citation vendors sell by the hundred have no readers and exist only to sell citations. They add nothing, and a bloated footprint of thin listings is its own maintenance problem. The list that matters is shorter than the industry admits: the major platforms, the aggregators, your industry's directories, and your local institutions.

AI assistants read the same record. When ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI decides whether to name your business in an answer, it verifies you against publicly available data - your listings, your profiles, your citations. Contradictory data is the quietest way to get skipped. Clean citations are the unglamorous groundwork of entity SEO, and they pay off in both map results and AI recommendations.

How it works

Our process

01

Discovery audit - week 1

A full crawl of your existing citation footprint, graded listing by listing. You get a scorecard showing what's right, what's wrong, what's duplicated, and where you're absent - the baseline everything gets measured against.

02

Canonical record - week 1

We agree the exact business data together: legal name, address format, primary phone, categories, hours, and description. This single source of truth is what every platform gets held to from here on.

03

Cleanup & suppression - weeks 2-6

Corrections submitted to every listing that matters, duplicates merged or removed, and aggregator records updated. Some platforms process changes in days, others take weeks - we chase every one until it's right.

04

Build coverage - weeks 3-8

New listings on the authoritative general, industry, and local directories you're missing - built as complete profiles with descriptions, categories, photos, and links, not name-and-URL stubs.

05

Monitor & maintain - ongoing

Quarterly re-audits, drift correction when platforms or the public alter your data, and updates pushed everywhere at once when something real changes - new location, new hours, new number. Accuracy is a state you maintain, not a project you finish.

Why Amped

Built by operators, accountable to results.

Listing work is unglamorous, which is exactly why most agencies fake it with a software blast and a screenshot. We do it properly because it underpins everything else we build for you - map rankings, reviews, and the AI answers that increasingly decide who gets the call.

Questions

Frequently asked

Fewer than citation vendors want you to buy. What moves the needle is the major platforms, the data aggregators, your industry's respected directories, and your local institutions - typically dozens of listings done completely, not hundreds done thinly. We'd rather build fifty accurate, fully fleshed-out profiles than blast five hundred stubs you'll never maintain.

Yes - that's most of the job. Directories generate listings automatically from purchased data, so wrong profiles exist whether you made them or not. We claim what's claimable, submit corrections where claiming isn't possible, and work platform support processes to merge or remove duplicates. Every login we create along the way is documented and handed to you.

The cleanup itself takes roughly four to eight weeks, since some platforms process corrections slowly. Ranking impact typically follows over one to three months as search engines re-crawl the corrected sources. Be wary of anyone promising more: citations rarely produce dramatic jumps on their own - what they do is remove a ceiling that's quietly suppressing everything else you invest in.

Yes. AI assistants verify that a business is real and current by checking it against public data sources before naming it in an answer. A business whose name, location, and details agree across the web is safe to recommend; one with contradictions tends to get left out. The same cleanup that helps your map rankings makes you citable by AI.

Both, honestly: an upfront cleanup project sized to how messy your footprint is, then light ongoing monitoring to keep it clean - and we'll tell you plainly if your data is already in good shape. Everything is month-to-month with no lock-in, and every profile, login, and listing we create belongs to you.
