Local Online Directories



Local Directories
You should be listed and ranked in the top 30 online directories, at least. There are over 100 directories I know about, but you are more familiar with Yelp, City Search, Urban Spoon, Merchant City, Inside Pages, Manta, YP and the list goes on.

The point is – if you or your business is not on those sites then you are missing a lot of business. Yes, business. Interaction with your clients; it’s called social networking or social media. Maybe you‘ve heard of Facebook? That’s where local is going – social and mobile. And the Buzz on the street is your customers are on the move.

 You also want to have your business listed on the three major search engines local database. Having a business listing on Google+, Yahoo Local and Bing Local will help your business get found. Inserting a coupon or video in your Local Online Listing will help drive traffic to your business.These are some of the things that will help you stand out from the rest. I can guarantee your competition doesn’t know anything about these trade secrets.
