See How Easily You Can Market Your Business For Free: On Google, MSN and more!

Recently I've had to find ways to make sure that companies gain exposure in their "local" area. Seems like a simple yet often overlooked idea right? So while looking around at local directories I figured I'd share what I have learned.

Submitting your business or service to local markets is:

• Free and Easy
• Allows you to add in specialties, directions and why you are better than the rest!
• To gain that extra boost some directories include a coupon to add- right next to your listing on the map.
• That's right! Your listed on the map with directions on how to get to your location!
• Google, Yahoo & MSN are three I highly recommend you submitting to- widely used and great free exposure!
• Multiple listings for the same business are accepted for free too!
• Added photos are free on some of these directories!
  

The process is alittle time consuming, take into consideration verification via phone or postcard, review process that can take anywhere from 3 days to up to 8 weeks depending on the directory!

Not sure where to get started? Well here you go!

1. Submit to Google Local
2. Submit to Yahoo Local
3. Submit To MSN Local Actual submission page is here though...took a bit of clicking around to find it!
   
4. Still not enough - Check out Superpages as well- they give lots of cool options to include plus their interfaces allows you to see how many click thrus you've gotten!
