Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx). Free with your email.
What's inside
- A sheet for your correct name, address, phone, and website
- A sheet for every past address, phone number, and name
- A tracker for 20 directories with a status for each
- A summary that counts what is correct, wrong, and missing
Who it's for
Businesses that have changed address, phone, or name, and anyone setting up listings for the first time.
Common questions
What format is it?
An Excel file that also opens in Google Sheets and Numbers.
Do abbreviations like St. and Street need to match?
No. Search engines treat those as the same. Different phone numbers, suite numbers, and names are what matter.
How long does cleanup take?
Core platforms update within days. Aggregator corrections can take four to eight weeks to reach other sites.
