Various criteria affect the order in which business are displayed, the most important of which are:
- Quantity and quality of ratings. The more good ratings a business has, the higher it will rank.
- Reviews. The more good reviews a business has and the more positive feedback there is about its services, the higher it will appear in the catalog.
- Responses to reviews. The more responses a business offers to reviews, the higher its page will rank.
- Amount of information on the page. A unique description of the business, photos, special offers, a price list, employee info — the more information like this a busines has on its page, the higher it will rank on Nicelocal.
- Visit-to-call conversion. The more users there are who visit a page, then call the business, the higher the page will rank.
- Linked premium account. If a company makes its page as well as possible and has a Nicelocal premium account, we will also rank it higher in the search results.
