GetListed.org is a small business resource to help your website become more findable through online listings. One of my first Search Engine Marketing recommendations to any business – especially local businesses – is to get yourself listed on FREE directories like Google Local and Yahoo Local. According to their launch statement, their product “the LocalDashboard™, shows business owners simply and clearly where
their business exists on major search engines like Google Maps and
Yahoo! Local. The tool displays information such as business name,
address, phone number, and website address as they are indexed by these
major engines.”
These are the very first listings that show up when you search for something like [Location] – [Service], i.e. “Des Moines Plumber”.
This is extremely important in your SEM strategy and should be included in any web strategy planning phase. GetListed.org attempts to make this easier on you by creating a dashboard for your local listings and provides you links to get listed on the major directories.
GetListed also has a great resource center containing links and articles on Local Search Engine Marketing.
