Citysearch: A Popular Destination Online
Writing by Brick Marketing on Sunday, September 23, 2007 Comments (2)
Citysearch is one of the most useful websites online for local businesses. With a PageRank of 5, it has a significant reputation for leveraging your local small business and getting some recognition for your skills. And I like the way it is set up.
When you first visit Citysearch, you land on the national search page. This allows you to search for hotels, restaurants, or other businesses with a national reputation. But you can also hone in on individual cities. Large cities and smaller cities like Harrisburg, Pa., for example.
When you land on the page for your local city you’ll see several boxes – I like Citysearch’s page design. You’ll see a list of popular places in Harrisburg (or where ever you live), a glimpse into the nightlife, local personals ads, a menu bar on the left featuring significant amenities that you can browse (you know, restaurants, bars, various services). But the most significant feature of Citysearch for businesses is the online Yellow Pages feature, a place where you can list your business to gain that extra edge.
So … first, choose your city. At the very top of your screen (in the banner), you’ll see the name of the city whose page you are on (or just “National Search”) and under that you’ll see a link to “other cities.” Click the link.
Now scroll all the way do to the bottom of the page to where you see “(the name of your city) Yellow Pages.” Click “List Your Business.” You’ll get a pop up window where you can sign up for the Citysearch Yellow Pages plan that you want. And that’s all there is to it. Easy as pie.

Hi Nick,
Citysearch Pagerank Correction: I believe the PageRank is 7 not 5?
Good Article! Citysearch is AWESOME!

Thanks Marci. My PR tool shows the index page at PR6, but it also shows other pages at PR7. It is likely that as I was browsing around the site I landed on a page that registered a PR5. That’s a common occurrence as each web page develops its own ranking.
