help Whitespark Local Citation Finder FAQ
How does Whitespark Local Citation Finder find opportunities?
It compares a business's existing citations with the listings found for competitors ranking for the same local keywords. A campaign can therefore reveal directories, blogs, newspapers, or local sites where the competitors appear but the business does not.
What does Whitespark mean by a local citation?
A citation is a web mention of a business's name, address, or phone number, with or without a link. Google Business Profile and local directory listings are common structured citations, while a newspaper article can be an unstructured citation.
Can Local Citation Finder track citations after you build them?
Yes, Whitespark describes the tool as tracking citation growth and monitoring existing listings over time. Its campaigns can also produce a to-do list for opportunities and export results in formats such as CSV or PDF.
Does Whitespark Local Citation Finder automatically create every listing it discovers?
No, the tool identifies opportunities and indicates which sites appear submittable, but the business still needs to complete or manage the submission process. This distinction matters because a competitor citation is evidence of an opportunity, not proof that your own listing has been published.
