45 Best Local Australian Business Directories

IN THIS ARTICLE WE’LL COVER

What Is a Local Business Directory?

Business Directories are a great way to gather extra website traffic. There are many free and paid options, including Link partnerships. Online business directories or citation listings are probably the easiest way to get backlinks and to start putting your website and business infront of potential customers.

The more Directories your business is registered with the better the chances of receiving traffic and also a great signal for the search engines such as Google to measure the authenticity of your website.  Back in the day the equivalent of online directories were the Phonebook directories which as we well know have all moved to the online medium.

These online directories are essentially a database of Australian businesses with information regarding their Name, Address and Phone Number ( NAP which we will talk about in a little bit. With every listing, you register online the greater the potential boost to your websites SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) regarding local search.

WHY SIGN UP TO A LOCAL DIRECTORY AND What are the Benefits?

There are many benefits to listing your Australian Business the below are just a few

  • Great for Business SEO
  • Authenticates your business are a 'real' entity
  • Generates brand awareness
  • Adds the potential to attract new customers
  • A very cost-effective  and sometimes Free method to gain more exposure 
  • Some are Industry specific directories

WHAT IS NAP?

Not just one of my favourite past times :-)

NAP stands for Name, Address, Phone Number. NAP is critical for businesses wanting to rank in the local organic search results. Search engines like Google take the NAP data into account when determining which companies to show for geo-targeted searches, without these markers the Search engines would find it hard to measure the credentials of a Business.  That is why it is essential that the information, particularly the NAP (Name, Address & Phone) information, is consistent across all listings.

When adding your listings to various directories consider the below consistencies in the information

  • Company name with Pty Ltd, Inc etc
  • Address with proper formatting of Street Names and numbers
  • Adding Country/ State code along with Phone Number
  • Adding Fax or Mobile Number contact information
  • The format of the numbers, with hyphen or without? . e.g xx-xxx-xxx
