Local citations: Belgium vs France (what changes for law firms)

The logic is the same: NAP consistency + reputable sources. But the directory ecosystems differ.

Belgium

• Prioritize institutional profiles and credible local sources.
• Avoid spammy multi-language directories with no real traffic.

France

• Many legal directories and platforms can drive visibility.
• Duplicate listings and old addresses are common — fix them.

Simple method

1. Set one official NAP
2. Fix 10–20 reputable sources
3. Remove duplicates
4. Measure: local traffic + calls
