NAP Consistency: The Hidden SEO Killer for Tourism Businesses

Mike Lawrie • March 2026 • 5 min

NAP = Name, Address, Phone. If it's not identical across every platform, Google ranks you lower. Simple as that.

Why Tourism Is Especially Vulnerable

You're on more platforms than almost any industry: GBP, Booking.com, TripAdvisor, Expedia, SafariNow, Lekkeslaap, Facebook, your website. Each stores its own version. Over time, differences creep in.

How to Fix It

1. Create Your Master NAP
