So the question is, are you competing with the current trend? Is your business listed on the internet yellow pages? If not, this post is for you. I have compiled the list of few big players in the current Indian Local Search market. Here I am going to give you the links where you can add get your business listed in 10-15 minutes. So be prepared, get your address, phone numbers and other information ready. I will number the "Local Search Engine", will give you brief description about it and at the end, will give you the link where you can add your business to that local search engine.
1. Google Local Search - Google is currently the biggest player in the "search" industry. Most of the people now use "Google Search" in their day to day life in and out. I personally first search anything in google, if I dont find anything, then I go to other options. Recently Google India has launched its local search engine where people can search for businesses within their cities. Follow the link below and add your business to Google Local search. You might need to create an account if you don't have google account. Remember, at the end of the wizard, it will ask you to verify your listing by a phone or SMS or a postcard. If you select to verify by phone, it will provide you a PIN and will call you on your business phone to confirm that PIN.
One good thing about Google listing is that, you can provide your discounts/promotional offers to internet users so that they can take a print out these coupons.
