What is LocalBusiness schema?

It is structured markup that states your business name, address, phone, hours, and service area in a format Google reads directly. Livable Local outputs it cleanly on WordPress so Google does not have to guess what your DMV business does.

How strict does NAP consistency need to be?

Very strict. Google compares the exact characters, so Ste and Suite or two phone formats count as mismatches. Pick one format and use it on your site, your profile, and every directory without variation.

Do I really need citations if I have a good website?

Yes. Citations confirm your details across the web and add trust your site alone cannot. They are basic, but mismatched or missing citations still hold DMV contractors back in local rankings.
