Top 50 Local Citation Sites for USA, UK, Canada & Australia

Top 50 Citation Sites – Updated 2018

We originally published this list of top local citation sites in 2013.

In February 2018 we reviewed all the local directories included and updated each of the country lists to ensure that this is the most complete and fresh citation-building resource available online for anyone looking for business listings or local directories.

Sites were selected based on a range of criteria –

Domain Authority (i.e. their ranking power)
Generic Sites (i.e. businesses in all categories can get listed on them)
Active Sites (i.e. they’re still in business)
Accept New Listings (i.e. not closed business lists)

Citation Sites for USA, UK, Canada & Australia

We have divided this list into 4 countries so that businesses & SEOs based in each country can access a set of business listing sites that works for them & their customers.
