CITEJUICE - The CREATURE's Local Listings Citation Shake

Not open for further replies.


Alright guys, I'm coming in here to leave a review for the citation service.

I've been specializing in local SEO for a while as it is a niche that many people aren't as versed in as normal organic SEO. I used to train VAs to build the citations for me but it was always a pain to keep good VAs around and I was constantly training new ones.

As any good local SEO knows, the bulk of your strategy is going to be creating citations for your clients. But you also need to keep them looking natural, so you have to worry about geo-targeted IPs, etc so it can be even more of a hassle when working with your VAs in other countries to make sure they are using the right proxies and everything else.

This is where Adam comes in. I started outsourcing my citations to him and let me tell you, it's been an awesome experience. He is not a fly by night kind of guy and will be around to get you your citations.

Here are some of the aspects of the service I've been very impressed with:
-Great communication throughout the entire process. Adam makes sure he has all the correct information before starting an order. This is especially important as the citations all need to have the same information for them to be as powerful as possible.
-Beautiful report at the end of the service. I can essentially send the report directly on to my clients as is because it's very high quality.
-Affordable prices. I don't have to waste my time training up new VAs anymore. This is very costly to me as my time is valuable. More time training VAs means less time stacking bills. Adam is going to take care of that for you with his team of VAs that he has already trained!

If you are involved in local SEO at all this is definitely a service you should be checking out!
 
Citation work!

Over the past year I have been looking for someone to help build citations for my clients and have yet to find a solid partner...until now. Adam and his team provide quick and efficient work that end in results! His knowledge of the process is second to none! I would recommend him to anyone!
 
Thanks Micheal and Mitchell, always a pleasure.

Some folks may have noticed that our Creature 2.0 thread got closed when I got banned last month. Unfortunately I made a request on two separate threads for review copies, and it was perceived as begging for reviews. Fair enough.

Fortunately, it allowed me to take a step back from what we've been doing and realize that we have totally dropped the ball, and missed out on what I believe is a HUGE GAPING HOLE for local search providers.

We have proudly ranked over 100 + Google Places pages, and I'd say were pretty good at it by now. We study and test a lot and do our very best to stay one step ahead of the almost monthly Local Algo updates. HINT: prepare for one shortly here. Good has brought us pretty far, with close to 50 clients now on maintenance (only 20 were on maintenance last month) and many new clients weekly.

Shortly, we will be releasing Creature 3.0. Although it accomplishes basically the same thing (ranks Google Places pages), it will be less expensive, and hopefully just want you were looking for. Best of all, it is something we can be great at, not just good.

For fear of someone mimicking our idea, I am not able to say exactly what it is yet, but would like to call out some local search people for a couple free reviews. Naturally, I would prefer someone with a decent amount of posts, iTrader etc.

Thanks a ton for your support everyone.

Adam,

I don't know if I qualify but I'd be interested in a review copy, I have a site that needs some professional help. I keep screwing it up and using KWs that are against googles terms & conditions and some of the other KWs that I've tried don't come up in the boxes.
 
Hi Adam,

I have a client that could use some love on his Google Places rankings.

I realize that I don't qualify for free reviews based on the new requirements (200 posts, 10+ iTraders...so no offense to admin intended), but I'd be happy to write a thorough review if you need a LOCAL search guy for this.

Cheers,
Griff
 
Ditto as the guys above.

I work with local clients all the time and looking for a new citation provider. Ill check out a review if you want.
 
Here's my review from Creature 3.0.

(FULL DISCLAIMER - I am a current client of Adam's and he provided this package as a review copy free of charge.)

Service started on May 19th. Completed on May 23rd.

Speed: 5/5 - Since this is mostly manual work, 4-5 days is pretty good

Communication: 5/5 - I gave Adam my intake form and he asked for anything he needed clarification on

Price: n/a

Quality: 5/5 - Excellent work...all profile information was exactly as stated in my intake form. All citations were clean and professional.

Overall Review: This saved me at least 15-20 hours of mind-numbing labor (which means it probably wouldn't have been done by me at all.) I was surprised at a lot of the extra work that was done beyond basic citations and reviews. As someone who does Local SEO for many clients, this service is definitely a big help.

SERPs (err...maps) Rankings:

Start: Page 2 Letter J (bottom of the second page for Google Places Listings)

Now: Totally off the maps pages.

I'm surprised to see dancing already since it's always taken a few weeks for my own work to start dancing. I look forward to seeing how long it takes to bounce back up and where it lands. Will post an update when it does.

Cheers,
Griff
 
First, let me say that I am very impressed with this review package that Adam did for me. I spent a few hours last night in Google Maps typing in my KWs (categories + plus the terms “for sale” and “for rent” ) and local towns and cities in my area. My Google places site is basically number 1 now for about 40 miles, if it is not #1 then it is #2. I expect more improvements because this was basically 24 hours after I received my report for the Creature 3.0; only one of the 5 reviews has been scraped and put into my Places Page by Google so far.

My site was averaging 7 clicks a month, since the Creature last week I’ve gotten 10 additional click throughs.

Speed: 5/5 – really fast turnaround time, I received the client intake form Friday afternoon at 3pm. The finished report was emailed to me on Tuesday at 6 PM. I actually held Adam up a day or two while I wrote the reviews for my places page. Adam works weekends, I try not to.

Communication: Adam gets another 5/5; I’ve said this before in another of his threads about how easy it is to contact Adam…. He’s the only vendor on Wicked Fire that I have used that has a toll-free number to call him. He’s client intake form is very detailed and has good descriptions so you probably don’t have to ask Adam any questions when you get the form….it is really well thought-out. The same goes for the final report that he sends out.

Quality: 4/5 and the only reason for the 4 is that I think the 5 reviews that were put into the directories for Google to find should probably use a random name generator or something to make the reviewers names look like a real person. The names that were used looked totally fake, this was one of mine reviewer’s names “hodjetshfiv”. But my Map rankings are great.

If you are an SEO company and looking to hire someone for your Google Places packages you won’t run into any issues with Adam; he’s the most professional service that I’ve used on WickedFire since I joined the forum. He’s prompt, professional and he knows what he is doing; You should have no worries about your company’s name or reputation when you hire Adam for outsourcing your Google Places work.

Ok, so I posted this morning and Adam had this fixed by this afternoon. Can't ask for anything better than that........ You get a 6 out of 5 now.
 
Review:

I'm a long time fan of the Creature Local. It's always dominated GP so when this came out from Adam, I had to test it out.

Time: 10/10 2 days

Quality: 5/5. Client form was easy and nice to have. Report and review looked great. I couldn't be more pleased with it. The reviews are well written. Like stated above, let's spin some usernames or get a few databases of usernames from forums and use those randomly. But overall, it doesn't affect the ranking. Before he was even finished last Saturday, I got a phone call from my client who was ecstatic that they were in position "B" for their primary keyword in just one and a half days. I will definitely work with him again. He is really easy to talk to on skype if you have any questions. He obviously knows what he is doing.

Results: Competitive local keywords for a profitable market that is oversaturated. Site didn't rank for anything but the business name WITH the city. So needless to say, it worked very well. 5/5

Keyword 1: "B"
Keyword 2: "B"
Keyword 3: 9th
Keyword 4: 3rd page
