ImagineInk Authority Asset
Regional citation and review strategy before review schema.
Review schema should not be added until genuine, visible, compliant reviews exist. Build citations, GBP completeness, review operations, regional mentions, and proof pages first.
Citation priorities
Regional authority should come from consistent business data and relevant local or industry mentions, not directory spam.
- Correct NAP across major profiles.
- Prioritize GBP, LinkedIn, Clutch, Manifest, industry directories, and local listings.
- Track source, URL, status, and owner.
Review operations
Reviews should be requested ethically after real service milestones. No gating, no fake profiles, and no unsupported rating markup.
- Ask after delivery milestones.
- Reply specifically and professionally.
- Add review or rating schema only when visible review content is compliant.
Regional backlink targets
Useful regional links can come from partnerships, local events, vendor mentions, founder commentary, interviews, chambers, and client or vendor references.
