Citation cleanup
Local citation cleanup, included in your $399 - not a paid add-on.
Citation cleanup means making your business name, address, and phone read identically everywhere Google looks: your profile, your website, and the directories that feed local search. When one directory says Ave, another says Avenue, and a third has an old suite number, Google trusts the listing less and you can slip in the map pack. Most tools and agencies sell this as a separate line item. With ProfileBoost the NAP audit and correction is one of the 11 signals we work through, built into the flat $399, with every fix noted in your written summary.
