Do you link review entity box url's on website & social media...you're changing my view "is it a ranking factor" to "is it a google trust building factor" & can't thank you enough for this next level chess compared to checkers mindset ... Brilliant like always Chris 👏

Hello Sir, I understood each and every step in detail and also made notes. I want to mention. when you were referencing that these are the listings appearing on top by different keywords, there you mention that one thing they are on top through is social signaling. So, in one of previous lectures, you mentioned in your 5 hour video that how to find competitor's citations, you also shared a code present on your website. I think that is a great way to find the citations and then get social signaling, what is your take on this?

Hey Chris! I love the tips that you mentioned, and as far as the citations and directories go, I just don't have the time man. I'm pretty burnt out with my website and all this SEO stuff tbh lol. How much would it cost to hire you to do both, and could I apply that 20% discount?

Thanks man!

Hi, as always very useful video. I have a question If my digital services business is located in New York but serves clients worldwide, it's best to optimize my home page for local or global audiences or do i have to create separate page for digital services newyork, but main thing i scary about keyword cannibalization.

Hi Chris, when creating citations, listings in directories and PRs, how many do you usually do per month? I read somewhere months ago that is recommended to do 5-10 citations per month so that it doesn't look suspicios... What's your recommendation?

Thanks in advance :)
