Your Local Online Business Directory:
Start Locally And Branch Out

Writing by Brick Marketing on Sunday, 7 of October , 2007 at 5:35 pm

Does your local community have a business directory? Many communities do and if you live in such a community then you should seriously consider listing your company or small business in that local business directory. Here’s why:

If the local business directory website is optimized correctly then the mere mention of place names in your local community will make that website rise to the top of the search engine rankings. That means any time someone looks for a business in your area then they will find the directory. Chances are, if someone is looking for your type of business in your area then they will find the directory as well, and if your business is listed in that business directory, guess who searchers will find? That’s right, they will find you.

But I wouldn’t list only in the local business directory. You should also list your business at Google Local, Yahoo! Local, and in several Yellow Pages type websites. But you should start locally.
