Local, Bing Local Search and Yellow Pages give your business instant,
locally targeted exposure online.

Your Online Local Profile is a fast
and inexpensive way for your business to tap into local search engine
traffic and deliver more potential customers.
In fact, you don't
even need to have a website to participate in the directories
and local indexes.
Our Service includes submission to the supporting databases that feed
the search engines, such as infoUSA, Acxiom and Dun &
Bradstreet PLUS manual submission to 15
major search sites, AND a presence
analysis (about. 120 days after submission) for listing accuracy across
the Web. This means some rapid results for your business.

It's a jungle out there...in local listings land. Databases feeding off of each other and supplying each other with data. It's important to understand the local listings ecosystem to ensure accurate, optimized listings.
Google has added an enhancement to
their Google places called Google
tags. Tags allow advertisers to add useful information under
their listing to improve click through and hopefully conversions.
