The Importance of How Your Business Appears Online

Do you know if your business is listed on top sites that consumers use to find local businesses?

Is your business information correct and enhanced so you stand out from your competitors online?

In the past if you were asked this question with regard to finding your business in the Yellow Pages phone book, you would probably understand the question completely and also probably know the answer right off. That was because the Yellow Pages used to be the most important way for consumers to find you. That’s no longer true, as today consumers are using top sites on their computers or services referred to as “apps” on their smartphones to find local businesses.

Since your customers and prospects are looking for you on top sites, top sites are now more important than your Yellow Page listing, newspaper ad, or direct mail coupons. You need to know what your business listings look like on top sites, and more importantly, you need to be in control of them. Having accurate and consistent business listing information on top sites is a major deciding factor in whether you attract more customers or you lose more customers to your competitors.

Merchant Centric refers collectively to your business’ listings on top sites consumers are using to find you as your business’ Online Visibility, which you can manage on your Visibility page.
