Here's a full overview of our Listings Management Service:
Step 1 - Listings Management
The first step on this journey is to establish the complete and accurate Central Index of your branch information. Taking control of your listings could not be easier:
- Prepare a CSV or similar for your locations with the key data as shown above.
- Send to CentralIndex by email to support@https://centralindex.com along with confirmation as follows: “As an authorised representative of ‘BRAND’ I confirm that this is the latest list of locations and authorise these data to be used as the Central Index of BRAND locations, and syndicated to approved Central Index EndPoint Partners.”
- Agree a Listings Management contract with your Account Manager – the costs will vary based on the number of Listings you want to manage. Contact Us for a quote.
- Centralindex will set up a Group Management account for future edits to the data and provide access to your authorised personnel or agency.
- If you require it, we can provide you with API access to manage listings – we will discuss this based on the number of listings you manage, and the frequency of updates you will be doing.
Step 2 - Listings Audit
Once we have the very latest file and have created your Index of locations, we can provide a full audit of how your locations appear in Central Index and make sure we give you full control over them.
If required, we can also provide you with Listings Audits showing how your listings show up on other search directories and search engines. These can be run as one off reports, or you can subscribe to get them every month. They will list the key directories and sites you should expect to appear in, and let you know how your listings perform.
If everything’s perfect – you can relax in the knowledge your customers are finding the right info wherever they go. If there’s something wrong – it’s time for our Listings Syndication service.
Step 3 - Syndicate Your Latest Information to a Wider Range of Directories and Search Engines
Once your data is in the Central Index, you can choose where you want that information to be published, according to your needs and budgets.
Managing your listings on hundreds of different websites can be time consuming and costly.
