Hi brother ,are your citations tool useful for GCC countries like UAE. bcz am working for that country and i would like to know how can my service based business can reach to more customers outer than our location because we service all around UAE.could you help me with this??
Hi, my friend. When you try the citations tool, it should tell you which business directories BrightLocal has access to claim on your behalf. It will show you this before you are prompted to pay for the service. I would take a look at those directories and see if they are relevant to your country. It definitely won't hurt anything and can only help. But you might want to make sure the directories you see are relevant. For your other question about having your service-based business reach more people around the UAE, I suggest doing Google search ads and running those ads all around the UAE. Google shows localized results by default, but ads are the best way to start reaching people farther from your business. You can also check out a specific type of ad called Local Service Ads and see if you qualify for those as well. Those place your business at the top of Google Maps results, but you have to pay for the clicks and only certain types of businesses qualify. I hope this helps! Best, Keegan
