Growing a business in Belgium requires adding local citations to a search strategy. Listing a business on various general and industry-specific citation sites improves visibility in local searches. This also makes the business easier to find both online and in person for local customers.
Having multiple listings with accurate and consistent details builds trust. It also signals to search engines and customers that the business is active and serves a specific area. Providing this information helps search engines understand the locations covered and the products or services offered, increasing the chances of appearing in relevant local searches.
What is a Local Listing?
A local citation is an online mention of business details. It can appear in different formats across various websites. At a minimum, the mention must include NAP: business name, address, and phone number.
Why Are Local Belgian Citations Important?
Shopping habits in Belgium changed significantly during the Covid-19 pandemic. Before 2019, e-commerce was relatively small, but by 2020, local online purchases of non-food items increased by 66%. Adding local citations increases visibility among these shoppers.
Building Belgian Listings
Belgium has three official languages: French, German, and Dutch. Creating business listings manually requires switching between multiple languages, making the process more complex and time-consuming.
