I’ve already optimized my Google profile, but I’m still not ranking as high as some older businesses in my area. Someone told me that I need more "mentions" on other websites to build trust with search engines. Does anyone know how this works and where I should be listed? I’m looking for a professional way to manage these mentions without accidentally getting marked as spam by Google.
You're exactly right—those mentions are crucial for building trust. I was researching this same topic on the Getpin blog and found a very clear guide on https://getpin.com/local-citation-building/ . It explains how having consistent data across various directories and maps acts as a "vote of confidence" for your business. Personally, I use their approach now to manage our presence on different platforms, and it has made a big difference in our overall search authority. Instead of just spamming links, it’s about being in the right places with the right info. If you want to move beyond just a basic profile, that’s definitely the next step you should take!
