Local
Directory Listings Services
Have
you ever done an online search for your own business?
What
did you see?
Is
the information that appears accurate and up-to-date?
Most
importantly, is your business listed near the top of the various local directory
listings for your industry?
If
you answered “no” to any of these questions, then you have a little work to do
when it comes to establishing a stronger, more powerful online presence.
What is a Local Listing
Directory?
A local directory is an online site created by various search engine providers – as well as other sources – as means of giving businesses a marketing avenue to connect with local consumers in specific geographic areas.
These
directories provide pertinent information about your business such as your
contact information, website link, product and service information, hours of
operations, videos, and other details.
Some
of the most popular local directory listing sites include Google My Business,
Yahoo Local, Bing Local, Yelp, SuperPages, and many others.
Why Local Listings?
Consumers
today use the Internet as the primary way of searching for the products,
services and businesses they want. Most of us flock to our favorite search
engine, such as Google, Bing, or Yahoo, and type some keywords related to what
we’re looking for.
Each
of these search engines has its own local directory algorithm that determines
which businesses within your niche and geographic area will appear at the top
of the list when prospective customers conduct a search.
The
companies that show up first will capture the majority of those leads.
Due
to the massive popularity of mobile internet usage, an estimated 90% of people
who conduct online searches do so from their smart phones, tablets and other
devices.
Even
more importantly, many of these mobile searchers are ready to take immediate
action – some making a purchase from a business they found that same day.
By
claiming and updating your local listings on sites such as Google My Business,
Bing Local, Yahoo Local, and Yelp, and you put your business one step closer to
being connected with hot leads.
With
numerous local listings that are claimed, verified, and optimized, you can
expect:
·
Higher rankings in the search results
·
More citations to contribute to your SEO
·
Better connection with both desktop AND mobile
users
·
A stronger online reputation by way of
customer reviews
·
Consistent and accurate information about
your business across the board

Connection with more leads as they are
actively searching for your type of product or service
