Work in priority order

Start with the "Do first" listings — they carry the most authority and have the biggest impact on local search rankings.

Match your NAP exactly

Every listing must use the same Name, Address, and Phone as your Google Business Profile: Kurre Consulting · Overland Park, KS 66204 · (913) 293-7826.

Collect reviews after listing

Listings with reviews rank higher on every platform. After submitting, email 2–3 past clients and ask for a review on that specific directory.

Do first — highest authority

5 listings

Step-by-step

  1. Go to kcchamber.com/join and select the appropriate membership tier.
  2. Complete the business profile form — use your exact NAP (Name, Address, Phone) as it appears on your Google Business Profile.
  3. Upload your logo and a short business description (150–200 words).
  4. Once approved, request that your profile link be set to your homepage.

Pro tip: The Chamber directory link is do-follow and carries strong local authority. Prioritize this above all other KC-specific directories.

Step-by-step

  1. Visit bbb.org/bbb-accreditation and search for your business to see if a profile already exists.
  2. If a profile exists, claim it. If not, submit a new business application.
  3. Complete the accreditation application — requires business license, contact info, and a brief description of services.
  4. Once accredited, add the BBB seal to your website footer and link it back to your BBB profile.

Pro tip: Even without paid accreditation, a free BBB business profile still earns a citation. Start with the free profile if budget is a concern.
