Local Citation Sites
-
After searching through many local citation site I find that most only apply to the US. Are there any really good ones in Canada?

The citation finder tool at Whitespark (mentioned in one of my other comments) can also be really useful, Brett. One way you can use it is to check out the citations your local competitors have, so you can recognise and go after relevant citation sites that you may not have thought of.

Well worth a paid account for a couple of months at least. (No affiliation - just a great tool. And Canadian Note that as a Pro member here, there's even a perk for that: www.seomoz.org/pro-perks.

Hi Brett,
I moved to Australia a year ago and dealt with the same thing. Most citation sources are US/UK. I have compiled a list of AU and CA ones for my own use. To help you along, I just posted the CA list here:
http://www.highonseo.com/2012/12/canada-citation-list/
Hope that helps. It's a compilation of a LOT of lists from around the web. If you download the XLS at the end, it has the pagerank, mozrank, domain authority, etc. for every site on the list, update as of this morning.

Video on Site Before Youtube?
We are going to create a few 1 - 2 minute instructional videos. I will be creating a blog that will include the video for our main website. I want to say I read or saw (Whiteboard Friday) that Rand Fishkin mentioned to place the video on your site first for about a month (or weeks). Then, you can publish it on Youtube etc. It sounds like a good plan. Have Google index your blog with the video and receive organic traffic. Then place it on Youtube. Is that correct? Is that the best practice? Like i said, I think it was Rand that discuss this. Would love to get feedback. Thanks.

What are the best practices for optimizing a site for multiple locations?
I have a client that operates in multiple states. I am trying to find a way to best optimize their website, but all of the best practices for "local SEO" seem to be for things such as restaurants, small businesses, etc. I am looking for a way to optimize for the industry keywords as well as location. Any best practices/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
