Get Results with Local Listings

 

If your site is absent from the local listings of Google, MSN , and Yahoo, you are missing the Internet's version of a Yellow Pages™ ad. These services allow searchers to request information about products and services within a geographic area--your area, just like a telephone directory, only faster.


For those accustomed to--and relying on--the web for information, these local listings are a quick search method.

 

In addition, the growing ranks of mobile device users allow for a directory anywhere search on web-enabled phones without hauling around the 8 pound yellow book. And Google added a third reason for joining their local listing service with their "dial for listing" search using short message service (SMS). Google SMS lets you send text-message queries to Google and receive local listing phone numbers and addresses. And because it is not website driven, you do not have to have a website in order to have your contact information

 

Google also recently came out with Google 411 listings. Users can dial the "experimental" 1-800-GOOG-411 line to reach Google Voice Local Search Callers use voice commands to search for businesses by name and receive the address and phone number. The service does not currently offer directory assistance for residential addresses. Once the service retrieves the business' information, the user can opt to have Google connect the call automatically, play back the name, address and phone number, or receive the same in a text message.  (Of course, your professionally designed website will enable you to offer coupons and product information that will help you sell.)

Below you will see the many forms your ad will take on Google, Yahoo! and MSN/Live.
