USP of Huptech Web
Considering all the positive feedback and reviews from our clients we can confidently say that the citation services we provide is extensive, fruitful, and tailor-made for you. Here are a few steps that we follow to stand out from the crowd:
We submit the listing only if the DA is ≥ 30
The quality of the platform where the listing is submitted needs to have a decent domain authority. This is necessary as search engines like Google collects data about each business from different sites. And if the platforms from where they collect your details are not authentic or have low DA and high spam score then it can affect your SERP rankings.
We Manually Perform the Business Listing Service
This is vital to avoid even any minor errors. We carefully input your company details and find more relevant platforms which could benefit your rankings on SERPs. As opposed to automatic citation submissions, in manual citation you hold control and ownership over your listings. Moreover, this method is better if you are on a tight budget.
You Receive A Report of All The Submissions
At the end of a pre-decided duration, you get a full report of all the submissions. This report represents detailed documentation of the submissions, platforms, verifications, dates, etc.
Pay Us Only For The Approved Links!
We know it is frustrating to pay for a service and not get anything in return, hence we charge you only for the links that are approved by the listing platforms.

John’s CBD
Very professional, highly recommended! Due to some bad experiences in the past with other overseas agencies, we were really hesitant this time around about hiring an agency for our citation needs. But they really knocked it out of the park! I started to see results after just two weeks!
La Marquise Jewellery
They give reports to us every 10 days about the amount of work they have completed. I was surprised to see the number of citations they submitted in just mere 10 days! Great Work!
Medix CBD
One of the best teams we have had the pleasure to work with. A great process from start to finish, very communicative and may I say… relentlessly hard-working! Thank You Huptech!
