10 Free Sites to Market Your Notary Business (2026)

10 free sites to market your notary business

You've invested in your notary commission, gotten your supplies, and maybe even completed loan signing training. Now it's time to get clients. These 10 free business listing sites will put you in front of people actively searching for notary services.

Critical: NAP Consistency

Before listing your business anywhere, decide on your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) and use it consistently across ALL platforms:

  • Name: "Ray's Mobile Notary" or "Ray Rodriguez, Mobile Notary" - pick one format
  • Address: If home-based, use your city/ZIP. If you have an office, use exact address
  • Phone: Use the SAME number everywhere (including area code format)

Google and search engines use NAP to verify your business legitimacy. Inconsistent information confuses them and hurts your local SEO rankings.

The 10 Essential Free Listing Sites

1. Google Business Profile (google.com/business)

Monthly Reach: 300+ million local searches

This is #1 for a reason. When someone Googles "notary near me," you want to show up in the map results. Free, essential, and drives more clients than any other platform.

Setup Tips:

  • Choose "Mobile business" if you travel to clients
  • Set service area (your cities/ZIP codes)
  • Add photos of your stamp, journal, professional headshot
  • Request reviews from every satisfied client
  • Post weekly updates (new services, hours, tips)

2. Yelp (yelp.com/biz)

Monthly Reach: 100+ million local business reviews

Yelp is huge for local services. Many people trust Yelp reviews more than Google. Free business listing, but encourage happy clients to leave reviews.

Pro Tips:

  • Claim your business (it may already exist!)
  • Complete your profile 100% (Yelp favors complete profiles)
  • Upload 10+ photos
  • Respond to ALL reviews (good and bad)
  • Add your services (loan signings, general notary, mobile, etc.)

3. Facebook Business Page (business.facebook.com)

Monthly Reach: Highly-targeted local marketing

  • Share educational content about when people need notaries
  • Enable messaging so clients can reach you easily

4. Bing Places (bingplaces.com)

Maintaining Your Listings (Ongoing)

Don't "set it and forget it." Active listings rank higher and convert better:

  • Weekly: Post to Google Business Profile (updates, photos, offers)
  • Monthly: Check all listings for accuracy, respond to reviews
  • Quarterly: Update photos, refresh business description
  • After each signing: Request a review (send Google/Yelp link via text)
  • If you change phone/hours: Update ALL 10+ sites immediately

The notaries who consistently maintain their online presence get 3-5x more inquiries than those who don't. It's worth 30 minutes per week.
