NAP

Name, Address, Phone Number

Your business’s online identity. Search engines like Google want to provide the most accurate and reliable information. They check your NAP across various online platforms – your website, GBP, social media profiles, online directories, and more. If your NAP is consistent, it builds trust with both search engines and potential customers. Ensuring it’s consistent across the web is crucial for local SEO. This consistency signals that your business is legitimate and reliable, leading to higher search rankings and increased visibility.

Here’s a breakdown of what NAP includes:

• Name: Your official business name. Keep it consistent, even if you use a shortened version in everyday conversation.
• Address: Your full business address, including any suite or unit numbers.
• Phone Number: Your primary business phone number. Use a local number whenever possible.

When your NAP is accurate and consistent, it makes it easier for customers to find you online and in the real world. This can lead to more website traffic, foot traffic, and sales. Remember to double-check your NAP across all online platforms and keep it updated if anything changes. This simple step can make a big difference in your local SEO efforts.
